A Dinosaur Tracker's Adventures.......2007-09-19
While the legendary R.T. travelled across the US and Mexico on his Harley (with camper sidecar), he kept his eyes open for curious objects. After years showing prize dairy cattle, he started his paleontological career with the finding of a new and special amphibian fossil. He ws soon mapping the mass of dinosaur bones at the Howe Quarry site for the famous Barnum Brown of the American Museum of Natural History, and continued that association while searching for foot prints of dinosaurs. This eventually led to Glen Rose, Texas where there were reports of large, three-toed tracks on and in the Paluxy River. While clearing some of these for photographing, he discovered that some large pits close by were really tracks of a creature with feet 38 inches long. A sauropod, the first ever so attributed! This book recounts many of this great man's finds and travails, a readable account certainly worth buying.
Book Description
Are You Recovering from a Stroke?
If you or someone you love has had a stroke, you are probably frightened and worried. And, you’re filled with questions. What can be expected in recovery? How much rehabilitation will be needed?
No health professional can predict the exact outcome of a stroke. Still, research shows that patients tend to do better when they have supportive families and friends. Learning the basics about stroke and rehabilitation can help families provide a stronger support system as well as reduce their fears of the unknown.
Author Kip Burkman, M.D., is a rehabilitation physician who has worked with thousands of stroke patients and families. He understands what families go through when a loved one has a stroke, and he offers answers to many of your questions.
Among the topics Dr. Burkman covers:
• How strokes occur—what happens in the brain

• Swallowing problems
• Recover and rehabilitation—what to expect
• Stroke prevention—reducing your risk of stroke
A quick reference book to help you cope with the effects of stroke!

Why give up?.......2007-08-09
While I found this book interesting it would be most disappointing if I were someone looking for real answers. If someone is looking for real recovery then I would recommend a book called Peeling the Onion:
Reversing the Ravages of Stroke. In 2000 my grandmother had a stroke which left her paralyzed, unable to roll over in her bed and unable to speak. Long-short, I took a shot and took her to this clinic where, in less than a week she and I were again having two-way conversations and she could transfer herself from the car to the wheelchair. By the time we went home she was walking 400 feet with a walker. Strokes change families but they don't have to be permanently debilitating. If you are looking for help for the stroke and not just a book to read, you might want to order it. Thank God for Dr. Hammesfahr and his stroke therapy!Peeling the Onion: Reversing the Ravages of StrokePeeling the Onion: Reversing the Ravages of Stroke
A family guide.......2006-03-11
Having recently had a loved one who has suffered a devastating stroke, this book was so helpful in every aspect of what to expect on this very long journey to recovery. It was easy to read and to understand and I would highly recommend it to any family or caregiver who is going through this process with a loved one.
Stroke Recovery.......2004-06-04
Overall, a solid book, but could be a lot more comprehensive. It just doesnt cover all of the issues. (I was still left with questions).
I recommend the book by Joel Stein, MD, called Stroke and the Family, which is very understandable, but has more information.
Our Doctor Recommended This Book.......2002-01-30
My mother had a stroke recently. Her physician recommended this book, which we found very helpful. I would recommend it to any family who is doing through such a crisis.
A good overview but not a comprehensive guide.......2001-04-15
This a book that will give you an overview of the main causes of stroke and what to expect as of "The Day After". A good source of "initial" information after you or a loved one had just had a stroke. This book is for a family member suffering from sleepless nights on the waiting room while the stroke patient is in the Intensive Care Unit or those who have just woke up after a stroke and still lack basic info. The information provided by the book is useful, but most of it is already available in the many stroke reference sites throughout the internet. If you already have some education about the topic, this is not the book for you.

Great Gift Idea.......2007-09-24
I originally purchased this Totally Muffins Cookbook at a little shop while on vacation. All the recipes I have made were delicious and moist. I thought my sisters would love a copy of this cute muffin shaped book. I was glad to see I could order it on Amazon.com so I purchased 3 for Christmas gifts. I plan to wrap them with silicon muffin baking cups and a matching holiday towel.
OK.......2007-09-02
I was looking for a muffin cookbook with lots of apple recipes, this didn't have more than one, I don't think. I like apples & cinnamon.
delicious muffins.......2007-07-06
This is a great little cookbook for a new cook or for a gift basket. I am putting my copy in a gift basket for my daughter and son-in-law for christmas. It has a lot of recipes and very simple. I loved the design and shape of the book. GREAT!!!!!!!
Your "baby" muffin book.......2007-04-26
My initial thought in purchasing this literally tiny book was that it would be "nice" to have a little reference guide, of sorts. You know, nothing as grand as my "real" baking books, baking snob that I am. I was very wrong, much to my delight!
As they say, never just a book by it's cover or a dogs bite by its bark and so it goes for this little marvel of a muffin book as well. It has some of the best muffin creations that I've tasted and I have only just gotten started.
The book itself is about 5 x 5-1/2 inches in size, thin, and as light as the muffin recipes contained within. There are no photo's, no heavy or glossy pictures, or anything remarkable except for the 12 grand recipes that will fill your insides with some of the sweetest delectables you ever made in a paper liner. Helen Siegel and Karen Gillingham have written a wonderful ode to the muffin, which can be our salvation on any crazy or lazy morning. The book starts with an introduction on the "muffin" and the muffin person, along with some encouragement to get started. Then you get an interesting "baking soda vs baking powder" education which for the average baker, is a mini-chemitry course; a conversion table comes next, and then the fun begins:
Blueberry Buttermilk Muffins
Banana Walnut Muffins
Pumpkin Currant Muffins
Applesacue Spice Muffins
Strawberry Streusel Muffins
Basic Corn Muffins
Refrigerator Bran Muffins
Carrot Raisin Muffins
Almond Poppy Seed Muffins
Apricot Sourdough Muffins
Date Nut Muffins
Butter-Dipped Pear Muffins
I made the Blueberry Buttermilk Muffins as they directed but instead of the pan for 12 regular size muffins, I used the king-sized muffin pan and made 6. They came out the size of your head and were absolutely superb; the buttermilk made all the difference. As an extra note, for those on a gluten-free diet, "substitute" flours work well also.
As an extra thought about this book, I decided to order more of theses powerful little teachers of taste, and make a "muffin gift basket" that has this wonderful little book tucked inside. I have family and friends that are hard to buy for, and who really don't need anything, but a festive collection of muffin-making items, along with "Totally Muffins Cookbook", all tied up with ribbon and raffia, will be a cherished way of celebrating a special day for them. Thank you so much Helene and Karen!!
Best Muffins Ever.......2006-09-20
This cookbook is the best and I have bought 4 books, giving away 3 to friends and family. Sometimes books really ckick with your style of baking and this one did just that for me.
LOVE IT!!

Book Description
The first four decades of this century provided the average American with the best magazines published in this country, as well as our most distinguished garden writing. The first national medium of mass communication, these journals had a formitive influence on American culture. Many of their garden articles were by authors we recognize today as singularly fascinating voices: Louise Beebe Wilder, Grace Tabor, Fletcher Steele, Wilhelm Miller, and Mrs. Francis King. But some of the best were by amatuers who wrote about their gardens with wonderful enthusiasm and intelligence while earning their livings in other professions.
Virginia Clayton has selected over fifty of these marvels of garden prose and arranged them in chapters covering everything from "Wild Gardens" and "Formal Gardens" to "A Year in the Garden." The book also includes photographs from the articles themselves, as well as a color plate section reproducing twenty-one glorious magazine covers.
This is truly the book for the "once and future gardener," a delightful and authoritative reference work that no serious gardener, or garden historian, should be without.
Book Description
Women often behave toward one another in sneaky, underhanded, ruthlessly competitive ways. Catfight is a remarkably researched and insightful foray into the American woman's world of aggression, rivalry, and competition. Tanenbaum draws on real-life examples and the most important studies to date in psychology, human aggression, psychoanalytic theory, and social movements to uncover the pressures that leave women regarding one another as adversaries rather than allies.
Most women highly value female approval and friendship, but the darker side of sisterhood can evoke covertly competitive behavior:
- A career woman quits to become a full-time mom. Although she misses her job and the income, she belittles you, a working mother, as selfishly unconcerned with your children's welfare.
- You're at a party in mid-conversation with your boyfriend when an attractive woman comes over to mingle. You move closer to him, touching him and glaring at her.
- A female colleague "accidentally" misplaces your files and "forgets" to e-mail you about an important upcoming meeting.
What is the state of "sisterhood" today? And how much progress have we really made?
Customer Reviews:
beautifully written and based on sound research.......2004-12-06
Tannenbaum does an excellent job exploring and explaining the basis for women's rivalries. As a woman, I found myself nodding my head repeatedly as I read. As a female physician and mother, I, like most women, have experienced many of the phenomena that Tannenbaum describes. Tannenbaum has exhaustively researched every aspect of her book, and thoroughly supported virtually every statement within. Catfight serves not only as an excellent reference and review of feminist literature, but also as an enlightening, entertaining read.
Ok.......2004-09-18
Most of the information is great. Some of the information is dubious. I found some of the works cited to be faulty. One of the studies cited by Tanembaum was about how women and men did on a math test. The men and women were separated again into those in regular clothes to those in bathing suits. I found this faulty because men can lounge around in shorts. Women don't always wear their bathing suits to just lounge around. It was implied that women didn't do as well in bathing suits, compared to the regularly clothed women, because of self-esteem issues. I doubt that that is what is the real reason for the results. I'm a psych student and the results could have only suggested that that is the reason along with many others. It's hard to be definite in psych. Those type of assumptions give psychologists a bad name.
WHAT THE PRESS IS SAYING ABOUT "CATFIGHT".......2003-10-30
"Engrossing." -- The New York Observer
"CATFIGHT represents an important wave of feminist literature... offering valuable, multilayered, introspective, and solidly researched insight into [important] societal questions. The strength of [Tanenbaum's] very original criticism and approach is to illuminate how women experience competition in different areas of life and with different intensities than men do." -- The Chicago Tribune
"Fascinating, chatty." -- New York Post
"A thoughtful and thoroughly engaging writer, Tanenbaum offers not cold sociological interpretation, but earnest encouragement. CATFIGHTT addresses...the heavyhearted suspicion that the same feminist battles we've been fighting for years could well go on forever. There's a lot of bravery here; the book will surely prompt conversations between women and take some of the taboo out of the subject of competition." -- Women's Review of Books
"[CATFIGHT's] approach to the contradictions between feminist rhetoric and women's real experiences is sure to attract even more attention for this fast-rising social critic." -- Publishers Weekly
"Tanenbaum's inquiry...blends well-documented research, interviews, and personal reflection in a lively, accessible style." -- Library Journal
"Tanenbaum relates her own experiences and interviews a variety of women and psychologists to explore the seemingly eternal adversarial relationships that exist among women despite many recent feminist gains." -- Booklist
"Tanenbaum's prose is provocative.... She succeeds beautifully at getting women to think about the role competition plays in their daily lives." -- San Francisco Bay Guardian
"Tanenbaum's best when grappling with the conflicting demands of work and children. She describes the isolation of motherhood with particular care." -- Village Voice
"CATFIGHT is an incisive exploration of a long-taboo subject--how and why women sabotage one another. Tanenbaum is a witty young woman, wise beyond her years. Her insights and lively stories explain the essence of women's resentment of other women; how to spot sabotage by the Other Woman; why rape victims are often disbelieved even by women friends; and much more. Since competition is a learned behavior, not innate, Tanenbaum is able to guide us toward healthy competition. CATFIGHT will prompt women to confront--and cure--their own feelings of competitiveness." -- Gail Sheehy
Psuedo-feminism.......2003-04-18
This book poses as a feminist text, but is really a guilty pleasure fest of stories of women cutting each other down in bathrooms and streetcorners. It portrays women in a very poor way, with the justification that "I concentrate on the bad aspects of women in competition cause that is what we need to change" Or maybe because it sells books to talk about women fighting over men, obsessing over their weights or badmouthing each other. There is no serious intellectual analysis here. Try Michael Messner for a balanced,intelligent and fun discussion of women in sport.
A Must Read For All Women.......2002-10-04
I read Tannenbaum's book cover to cover in one sitting. I found myself calling female friends and family to read parts of the book to them. This is new stuff...Competition is an old subject but Tannenbaum has highlighted so elequently the competition that exists between all women. Today I went out into my normal day to day activities and witnessed and observed myself in at least 15-20 competitive situations. This was a mirror for myself and should be a mirror for all women to see a reflection of what we are doing to one another. It's keeping us all down to behave in this way. There is so much truth to this books it's impossible to describe in 1000 words.. It's a must read for all women. I know I will begin to change my behaviour immediately! I thought this was about other women but it's about me too. Darn!
Thank you Leora...

The Beginning of My Love Affair with Duchamp.......2001-05-03
This book is highly recommended. The information available within the covers is something that I could not find in my art history book. The reader will gain insight into Duchamp's views and his thoughts leading up to his decisions to take the road, artistically, that he did. Wonderfully written, glorious color photos and beautiful insights, I would recommend this book to anyone looking to add to a library.
Book Description
This book is the second volume in John Meier's masterful trilogy on the life of Jesus. In it he continues his quest for the answer to the greatest puzzle of modern religious scholarship: Who was Jesus? To answer this Meier imagines the following scenario: "Suppose that a Catholic, a Protestant, a Jew, and an agnostic were locked up in the bowels of the Harvard Divinity School library... and not allowed to emerge until they had hammered out a consensus document on who Jesus of Nazareth was and what he intended...". A Marginal Jew is what Meier thinks that document would reveal. Volume one concluded with Jesus approaching adulthood. Now, in this volume, Meier focuses on the Jesus of our memory and the development of his ministry. To begin, Meier identifies Jesus's mentor, the one person who had the greatest single influence on him, John the Baptist. All of the Baptist's fiery talk about the end of time had a powerful effect on the young Jesus and the formulation of his key symbol of the coming of the "kingdom of God." And, finally, we are given a full investigation of one of the most striking manifestations of Jesus's message: Jesus's practice of exorcisms, hearings, and other miracles. In all, Meier brings to life the story of a man, Jesus, who by his life and teaching gradually made himself marginal even to the marginal society that was first century Palestine.

A tremendously thorough review of historical information regarding Jesus.......2006-06-30
This book is valuable for the mind-boggling wealth of historical information it covers in careful detail regarding the historical Jesus. Of course, it is only the first of a series, but anyone interested in what history has to offer on Jesus will benefit greatly from this book. The extensive endnotes for each page make reading tedious. I would have preferred footnotes, though some notes run over one page, so there is probably no real way to avoid this inconvenience. Even where a reader may not agree with Meier's assessment of the data, they are all presented with such detail, and the bibliography is so extensive, that the reader will know where to pursue other avenues easily. Works are cited in German, English, Spanish, French, Italian, and Latin, with indications of translated versions in English, where applicable. A great resource.
Marginal Jew II.......2006-03-30
It is a very good book. The author has done a magnificent historical research. For us catholics and non catholics gives a new and more accurate picture of our Savior. A better one than the one I had. I recommend the first and second volume to all people no matter what religion they have.
Three Books In One.......2005-01-24
Every once in a while, public attention turns to the person of Jesus of Nazareth. A few years ago, it was the "Jesus Seminar." Lately, Dan Brown's book THE DA VINCI CODE sparked some interest, particularly among the conspiracy minded. The impression that many people have is that the conventional story about Jesus is wrong, and the more established churches don't want you to know it.
What many people haven't been told is that there is a large body of work in recent years which is supportive of the historical accuracy of the Gospels. One such work is John Meier's series A MARGINAL JEW. Meier is a Catholic priest who teaches at Notre Dame. In 1991 he came out with the first volume. It might not be the first book you want to read on the subject, but it's a work that anyone interested in the historical Jesus should tackle. Volume two and three are out, and a fourth and final volume is promised.
There are a few things to keep in mind when reading this series. First, Meier is writing a book on the historical Jesus. There is minimal theological reflection. Second, it is not an old-fashioned "life of Jesus" which presents a chronological discussion of Jesus' life (Meier probably doesn't have enough confidence in the historicity of the Gospels to write such a work). He arranges his material topically.
Volume 2 is a 1118 page monster which discusses three subjects: (1) John the Baptist; (2) Jesus' teaching on the Kingdom of God; and (3) Jesus' miracles. This book is well organized and Meier has an introduction which tells you where he is going. For example, he tells you flat out that he disagrees with Crossan and Smith's claim that Jesus was a magician. There are tons of footnotes, which are unfortunately placed at the end of each chapter. The footnotes/endnotes are informative and contain lots of interesting barbs directed at other scholars.
Meier's discussion of miracles is illustrative of his approach. Meier concludes that there is no reason to doubt that Jesus was perceived to be a miracle worker. In addition, through an exhaustive look at other miracle workers and magicians in antiquity, he shows that Jesus was not a magician in any traditional sense. At the same time, when and if any particular miracle occurred as written is an open question. Thus, he thinks it unlikely that the miracle in Mk. 3:1-6 (the man with the withered hand) occurred at all. Yet the curing of Bartimeaus (Mk. 10:46-52) is probably historical at its "core." Even here, he thinks Mark "worked up" the oral tradition. If your view of biblical inspiration swings toward the Chicago Statement on Biblical Inerrancy, you might be disappointed.
Ben Witherington provides a review of Meier's project up to the second volume in THE JESUS QUEST. Witherington reaches more conservative conclusions while using a similar methodology.
A New Elijah for the End of the World.......2004-08-06
Of the three volumes of John Meier's study of the historical Jesus, this is probably the most difficult for the average reader. Much of it consists of complex discussions of the historicity of various bible passages, considered in extensive and exhaustive detail. It is not an easy read, but Meier's research is vital to understanding the real Jesus. As the subtitle indicates, Meier discusses John the Baptist, the basically eschatological message of the Kingdom of God, and the question of Miracles. On John the Baptist we read of how the embarassment of Jesus' baptism is effaced by the Gospel writers. We learn how Jesus accepted a baptism for the forgiveness of sins, which does not necessarily mean that he personally thought he was a sinner (many such confessions are of a communal nature). We learn about John's fundamental belief in the approaching end of the world. We learn how Mark muddled certain details of John the Baptist's execution, such as the identity of Herodias' first husband, and we find that many of the passages dealing with the Baptist likely go back to the historical Jesus. As for Jesus' message, Meier argues that Jesus did believe in a quickly approaching future kingdom. We can see this from his study of the Lord's Prayer, the Beatitudes, and such passages as Mark 6:10 and Matt 8:11-12. Meier also agrees that in some way Jesus viewed the Kingdom as already present, the first century Galilean mind not sharing the same interest in clarity and non-contradiction. Meier makes two vital points. First off, if John the Baptist believed in the near end of the world, and the early church believed in the near end, then it is likely that Jesus shared this incorrect belief. Second, if Jesus was an experienced teacher and if he "used the symbol of the Kingdom of God in a sense directly counter to the eschatological connotations with which it was often connected, he would have made his own usage clear--all the more so if he wanted to negate any or all eschatological expectations."
Meier then spends the second half of the book discussing Jesus' miracles. As a historian he claims that he cannot judge whether Jesus actually carried them out or not. This may seem like a cop-out, but it is not. Many past biographers of Jesus have wanted to split him from the miracles, but this assumes that Jesus was fundamentally rational and modern. Clearly this is not the case, and it also led to peculiar explanations of how people incorrectly thought a miracle took place. Instead, Meier notes we can examine which miracles go back to the historical Jesus and which do not. Certain kinds of miracles take place more than others, others show the redactional tendencies of the particular Evangelist. As such Meier concludes that Jesus was an exorcist, and was believed to carry out some remarkable healings. There are three accounts in the bible of Jesus raising someone from the dead. Here Meier believes there is a historical core to the events, though he is unsure whether they originally involved an actual resurrection. By contrast, nearly all of the nature miracles are creations of the Early Church. After one strips the allusions to the Eucharist and to Elijah in the Feeding of the 5,000 there may have been a remarkable, if not miraculous, meal in Jesus's life. But once one strips all the allusions and Johannine redaction in the turning of wine into water there is, as Meier clearly shows, nothing left. The walking on water, the stilling of the storm and the miraculous catch of fish are all reshifted resurrection appearances, while the cursing of the fig tree is clearly an exercise in Matthean theology.
What can we say about all this? First, this is a remarkably researched book. There are at least 380 pages of notes in this 1,049 page book. There are exhaustive discussions of linguistic questions, stylistic questions, and redactional ones. Meier is excellent on providing the wider historical context, such as the origins of the Kingdom of God, the Old Testament backgrounds to the walking on the water, and the Hebrew practice of exorcism. Meier is also acute on distinguishing between Jesus' miracles, (which emphasizes Jesus and God's free gift, are symbols of the coming end time, and [with one exception] do not hurt anyone) with contemporary magicians (who coerced deities for often petty purposes, provides no church and engaged in esoteric secrets and mysterious, often nonsensical spells). Many of his discussions, such as the raising of Lazarus, or the Miracle of Cana, are tour de forces. Naturally they are caveats with this book, as there must be in one so learned and complex. It may be true that the miracles of the Greek Apollonious and the Jewish Honi the Circle Drawer are not really contemporary with Jesus. But it is reasonable to assume that there were Greek and Jewish miraculous contemporaries, and had not Christians destroyed exactly this sort of literature once mastering the empire we would find more of them. Meier tends to concentrate on differences of technique in Jesus' healing and exorcisms, while forgetting that while we can trace the fact of exorcism and healing back to Jesus, we are less certain about his techniques. Nevertheless this is an important major work, especially so since it remembers that Jesus was a very different person from the man 21st century Christians of all denominations would like him to be.
A must own.......2002-03-29
This book studies John the Baptist, Jesus' message, and Jesus' miracles. Meier goes through every passage and extracts history from them. He manages to go through every miracle story and determine whether the passage is historcal or not. You just can't find such an in-depth study in too many places. For this reason I think anyone interested in the historical Jesus should own this book (and probably the rest of the series).
