I am the great grandson of W R and have the origional draft of his letters and have written a version of the letters in order to clairify quaint language of the 1800's. I went to the book signing in McDonough Ga. Ron Mosely captured the full essence of the origionals. His research in flawless

    1 out of 5 stars This is the most poorly written book I have ever read.......2004-01-20

    I completely disagree with the editorial review of this book. It was dry and boring, and Reynolds recounted the deaths of Pasteur's daughters with as much emotion as she described a chemical reaction. Reynolds did not tell this story "succinctly and accessibly." It was such a chore to read that I began to read it aloud (I had to read it for a school assignment) and my mother and brother couldn't bear to hear it and screamed for me to stop. My father got the book Microbe Hunters out of our local library and I read that as a supplement. It covered virtually the same material as Reynolds attempted to write about, only it was far more compelling, vivid, and easier to read.

    Book Description

    Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) can tear apart a family. Often family and friends have tried to "stop" a loved one¿s OCD--with little success. This is the first book specifically for the family and friends of someone with OCD. "In this quick and easy fast tract era, it¿s not so easy to reflect back to the basics of family life. Families especially are led to believe if something¿s wrong, somehow it¿s their fault. This loving book is an inspiration and will be considered way ahead of it¿s time in years to come." -----Janet Greeson Ph.D.

    5 out of 5 stars Exellent hands-on guide.......1999-12-07

    Provides answers to the question- how do I try to help someone with OCD without hurting myself? At the OC Foundation national headquarters we literally receive thousands of inquiries for help from families trying to cope with a loved one's OCD. This is the first book that addresses this difficult topic and remains one of our most recommended book for families living with OCD.

    5 out of 5 stars Excellent !.......1999-12-06

    For years our family didn't know how to deal with this problem. It seemed like anything we did could set off my sons ocd. This book showed us what we could do (and couldn't do) to help.At times the book has a hard edge to it And gives advice that some people rather not hear, but our family needed to read & hear what was written, and as a result we are all doing better. A must if someone with ocd is making you crazy.

    A grateful reader from: The Bronx, NY

    5 out of 5 stars Great Book.......1999-12-05

    This is a great book. It is short, and gets right to the point. It has helped me and my family greatly.

    1 out of 5 stars THIS BOOK IS BAD!.......1999-11-30

    This book gave ZERO help. I bought it to give to my in-laws as a "basic" info book aobut OCD. i would have sent them screaming away if they ever had a chance to read it. It is all about the "steps" of AA (alcohol annon) and NOT about OCD.

    DONT BUY THIS! IT STINKS!

    (I will send you my copy free! Save your money!)

    5 out of 5 stars fantastic.......1999-02-04

    As the title suggests this book is written as a guide and it accomplishes just that. The book is focused entirely on solution, no surprise considering who the author is.The book is a must for those family and friends who need help in understanding this powerful disease.The book details useful tools that the reader can use to help themselves and in turn help those suffering.From front to back this book is written with one purpose in mind service!!!!

        Product Description

        From the PREFACE; What better month than March to begin a new adventure- to bid a "sweet good-bye to winter". The nights are still frosty cold and the warm sn begins to "honeycomb the snow" and the maple moon and the sweet water weather promise that spring is near. The ambivalent moods of a northeastern winter are forgotten when the warm sap-running winds carry off the patches of old snow; when even the muddy earth becomes a cheery chlllenge- about mid-March when the Canada geese are heading home. Now there is a sense of a subtle stirring of the spirit....

            From back cover: "It's March and winter has just begun to lose its bite. Ethan and Seth can't wait for tomorrow -- it's time to gather the sap and make the first bottles of maple syrup. Seth is especially excited for this year's sap run. He may be old enough and big enough to help Dad steer the tractor. And both Ethan and Seth will help empty the buckets of sap into the holding tank. But nothing is better than a sweet reward after a hard day of work." "Winner of the 1999 Golden Sower Award and author of an American Bookseller Pick of the Lists, Nan Parson Rossiter unfolds a charming tale about a family working together. An afterword about Native American legends and new techniques for collecting sap add an informative aspect to this already engaging audiobook. Tom Stechschulte's narration captures every scrumptious detail of gathering sap and tasting syrup."

                          This book is full of ideas for quilts that are a bit out of the ordinary and far from the traditional. The full color photos show the finished quilts which are a great inspiration. The varied projects included inside the pages give insight to many other crafting avenues as well as quilting. I own many quilt and craft books, but epspecially like the personal touch that these projects afford the quilter/crafter.

                          4 out of 5 stars Printing on Fabric---Great Fun.......2004-11-28

                          I purchased this book, because I was looking for a hobby. Something to use my computer and still be crafty. I experimented briefly with Scrapbooking, but it didn't suit my personality, but this book seemed to. The major problem was the inability to locate the inkjet fixative in my local stores, but after going through the book, it told me how to buy the supplies online, which I did. I did a test project and it worked perfectly. I have not performed any of the projects listed in the book yet, but I've used the book as a guideline and have created my own projects. This is great fun, even though it stresses the HP Printer, it works equally well with my Canon Printer. You can buy inkjet printable fabric sheets in the stores, but I liked this because I am only limited by the printing size of my printer. I can use any fabric, not just the pre cut sizes.

                          4 out of 5 stars Lots of new ideas in this book.......2005-07-12

                          What I like about this book is that it is so visual - there are a lot of pictures and ideas. This book has inspired me to be more adventurous and try out new things. I like being able to see the different techniques and how they were put to use.

                          3 out of 5 stars Pretty good for photo quilt basics.......2002-11-04

                          I bought this book prior to completing my first two memory quilts, and did find it helpful. I really liked the idea of adding the folded "photo corners", found that in this book, and utilized that in one of my quilts. However, I do think this book is lacking in variety -- not that there aren't several examples of quilts, but, in a very general sense, they are all very similar. In large, they represent very symmetrical quilts, done with photos used as part of traditional patchwork blocks. The examples are very beautifully done, and do give some good ideas for color, pieced blocks, etc., but there was just not enough variety to be truly inspirational. But, for me, it was worth the investment just for learning how to do the photo corners. If you are looking for that technique specifically, or are really drawn to one of the patterns, the book may be worth it. But, the limited variety keeps it from being a book I thumb through again and again, and thus I can't really consider it one of my "best bang for the buck" quilting books.

                          5 out of 5 stars Excellent Instructions and Fun Ideas.......2002-02-25

                          I bought this book when I agreed to make a class quilt for my daughter's kindergarten, to be auctioned at our schools annual dinner auction. Ami Simms writing style is fresh and down to earth. The clarity of her instructions was very appealing - not only did I follow her instructions for how to transfer photos, I also made the cover quilt. The projects in the book are interesting but not overly intimidating and include transfers on mouse pads as coasters in addition to quilts. I would highly recommend this book for anyone trying photo transfers for the first time.

                          5 out of 5 stars Great quilting book!.......2001-01-28

                          This is a fun book with lots of ideas for photo quilts. I enjoyed the author's sense of humor in all the written sections, and although I have not actually constructed any of the projects in the book (yet), I have enjoyed just drooling over the pictures (I've decided that quilting books are an awful lot like cookbooks!).

                                  5 out of 5 stars Glad I found it.......2000-01-23

                                  I looked for this book on Amazon.com because, of all the many library books I have checked out to research my new, small, greenhouse business, this was the one so densely packed with useful information that I feel I should own it. If there are better books out there for a new grower like me, I wish I knew what they were! As I am planning to be certified organic, I appreciated that this book, although conventional in it's treatment of chemical use, also expressed the concerns for human safety and for the environment that all growers who do use chemicals should be aware of. The details about individual plants, container sizes, and sample planting to marketing dates are invaluable. I was beginning to think they were industry secrets since no other book provided them. I also appreciated the clear and concise writing.

                                  2 out of 5 stars Where's the beef?.......1999-01-02

                                  Same old growing info, nothing about marketing plants or about preserving the enviorment. Its promotions state a enviormental friendly book, could not figure this one out , it seems to have used this to promote this well written book,. Note-- one magazine ad says, this companys name is the Enviormental Press, ( REAL NAME Admire Press) but not one metion of the enviorment in this book. Lots of the same growing info found in library, no good greenhouse pictures, all seem to be 20 years old.

                                            1 out of 5 stars Do I Have to Give It Any Stars?.......2007-09-06

                                            This book is an extreme over-simplification of a complex problem, and I didn't find it at all helpful or informative. Maybe that is because I don't live under a rock. My time and money would have both been better spent had I just stood in the bathroom flushing a few dead presidents one at a time. Perhaps if one were using the book to teach a child about why another child acts the way s/he does it might be helpful. Any fourth grader should be able to read it in a day.

                                            5 out of 5 stars Great Book.......2007-06-09

                                            It doesn't give alot of information, but if you can read this book without tearing up, my hats off to you. I read it from cover to cover the first day. Well written and easy to follow.

                                            4 out of 5 stars Extremely Helpful Metered with Common Sense.......2002-05-01

                                            I am both a counselor and a mother of a now-restored RAD child. While I agree that certain therapies, carried out in a non-ethical way are extremely dangerous and would certainly never suggest that people go the route that was taken in Colorado (not at the Evergreen centre, but by two women who acted independently of the centre-for the record), I find that holding therapy, used in conjunction with more traditional theraputic methods is extremely benificial. It is not my practice to entice others to anger, especially children. However, when a child in my care, or an adult for that matter, has clearly lost control of their emotions and is beside themselves with anger/grief, a properly structured holding experience is indeed extremely healing. I have a number of clients of various ages and with varying degrees of attachment disorders who will report that the safety of being held allowed feelings to come forth that they had previously never dared experience.
                                            What happened to that desperate child in Colorado (again, these "therapists" were not from Evergreen; nor do I work for or am in any way associated with Evergreen) was and is clearly wrong.
                                            As with any "new" approach to treatment, discernment and wisdom is the order of the day. This book outlines the emotional trauma of a child who cannot connect, a child struggling to understand the world in which he lives, a child desperate to escape the walls that both he and others have built around him. Foster parents, birth parents, anyone interested in "what goes on in there" would do well to read this.

                                            5 out of 5 stars A review from a parent with a RAD child.......2000-06-12

                                            This book is a realistic view of life with an attachment disordered child, this book does NOT use scare tactics, but rather is a priceless tool in helping others to REALLY see what goes on. Our RAD son has been helped ONLY by holding therapy. Also, the therapy used in the death of the little girl in Colorado was "RE-BIRTHING THERAPY," NOT "HOLDING THERAPY." Holding therapy is not abusive, it is a nurturing way of helping a child express their rage and anger so as to get it out and resolve it. Little children don't know how to express their anger on their own. Unresolved anger eats away at them and prevents them from trusting and loving. This book is accurate in explaining the anger and the portrayal of holding therapy and its benefits. My son is on his way to love and healing thanks to holding therapy, and my friends and family now understand thanks to this wonderful book.

                                            In my opinion, this book represents a very dangerous mix of information, integrating a well researched area (attachment) with an untested, unresearched approach to treatment--even uses "tradional" attachment resources (mixed in the booklist)which it previously rejects. It feeds off the pain/fears of adoptive parents of attachment disordered children, suggesting in the sensationalist story that tradional psychologists/ therapists are at best inept or witless, and their treatment is ineffective, while THEIR approach is "highly effective". Where's the research, outcome measures, proof---and how does this holding down, provoking anger approach differ from abuse the children have previous experienced? Sounds like brainwashing/ cult stuff-they obey too. See Associated Press story "4 Arrested in Girl's Therapy Death", May 19, 2000--Same approach, out of same place: Evergreen, CO.

                                                Rarely do you have an opportunity to meet someone who has "made a difference in history." Ambassador Per Anger is just that sort of person. Elizabeth R. Skoglund touches on the thread that held people like Per Anger, Rauol Wallenberg and others together while they tried to help those escaping the Holocaust. For us now, we too can "make a difference".
