Expensive book for what you get.......2007-09-08

This book will help you with school and practice as an OT, as it defines appropriate words used in practice, although you are basically buying a very expensive dicotionary (and the book is very thin). However you are able to print this book off for free if you are an AOTA memeber, so save you money.

Very good purchase.......2005-09-01

The book came in a timely manner and was in good condition. Thanks!

Book Description

Deciphering Human Chromosome 16: We Report Here, and Deciphering Human Chromosome 16: Index to the Report, by Sarah Jacobs, use text in a visual way to document the ethical, economic, political and philosophical polemics associated with mapping the human genome. The Report is an ebook which contains links to over 240 websites collected in the months following publication in the journal Nature of ¿The sequence and analysis of duplication-rich human chromosome 16¿ ( Vol. 432. December 2004). Its contents change over time as the websites change, migrate or disappear. It is available as a FREE DOWNLOAD from the publisher at www.informationasmaterial.com .The Index sets fragments collected from the websites against the background of the earlier draft sequence originally published by Project Gutenberg. The solid physicality of the Index contrasts with the ever changing Report although vagaries of the printing process ensure that each copy of the Index is unique.

Strange & Delightful.......2007-03-09

That long string of Cs and Ts and Gs and As which constitute our genes encodes some of the most important information about us -- but on the page it looks random -- like the script of an unknown language. This is an art book -- very well produced and beautiful to look at it -- that explores this contradiction. A must for anyone -- especially scientists -- who want to think about the MEANING of meaning.

Useful Rhetoric Handbook and Grammar Review........2003-07-24

I have a copy of the 1950 edition of Perrin's Guide (it was my mom's college textbook) and find it very useful. It is well-organized and gives good advice on how to write effective sentences and coherent paragraphs. It also discusses how to do research and take notes and write term papers. Makes a good companion to Warriner's English Grammar and Composition.

Book Description

WHAT IS LATENT DEMAND AND THE P.I.E.?

The concept of latent demand is rather subtle. The term latent typically refers to something that is dormant, not observable, or not yet realized. Demand is the notion of an economic quantity that a target population or market requires under different assumptions of price, quality, and distribution, among other factors. Latent demand, therefore, is commonly defined by economists as the industry earnings of a market when that market becomes accessible and attractive to serve by competing firms. It is a measure, therefore, of potential industry earnings (P.I.E.) or total revenues (not profit) if a market is served in an efficient manner. It is typically expressed as the total revenues potentially extracted by firms. The “market” is defined at a given level in the value chain. There can be latent demand at the retail level, at the wholesale level, the manufacturing level, and the raw materials level (the P.I.E. of higher levels of the value chain being always smaller than the P.I.E. of levels at lower levels of the same value chain, assuming all levels maintain minimum profitability).

The latent demand for die-cut paper and paperboard index, guide, and tabulating cards; guide cards for file folders; and presentation and report covers excluding looseleaf covers is not actual or historic sales. Nor is latent demand future sales. In fact, latent demand can be lower either lower or higher than actual sales if a market is inefficient (i.e., not representative of relatively competitive levels). Inefficiencies arise from a number of factors, including the lack of international openness, cultural barriers to consumption, regulations, and cartel-like behavior on the part of firms. In general, however, latent demand is typically larger than actual sales in a country market.

For reasons discussed later, this report does not consider the notion of “unit quantities”, only total latent revenues (i

Book Description

Numerous authors have written about America's Civil War, trying to recapture the crash of cannons and the immediate wall of black powder smoke that comes with the first volley of musket fire. But no written word can convey the firefights or the forag-ing or the marching as can the letter of a foot sol-dier. On October 10, 1862, young Alfred Willen from Lafayette, Ohio, mustered into the Union Army to help put down the "wicked rebellion." He left behind his sweetheart, Sophia Snider, and went with his friend John Simpson to war. For over two years Alfred wrote to Sophia of his experiences in the Army, telling of battles and marches, of tearing up the rail-roads, of hunger and cold, and of this anxious desire to return to her. Twenty-five of Alfred's letters were saved over the years, as well as an 1864 diary he kept, beginning in early May, when his regiment's rapid movements made writing letters more difficult. Interspersed with the meticulous transcriptions are reproductions of several letters and diary entries, as well as related Civil War photographs, including several from the National Archives' Brady Collec-tion.

Book Description

“Let me tell you, dear heart, it can happen that you go through life without knowing under your very nose there is a book in which your life is described in the minutest detail. What you have never even noticed before, you gradually remember, as you start reading such a book, and find out and discover…some books you read and read and you can’t make head or tail of them, however much you try. It is so damn clever that you can’t understand a word of it… But you read a book like that and feel as though you had written it yourself, just as though – how shall I put it? – as though you had taken possession of your own heart – whatever it might be – had turned it inside out for people to see, and described it all in detail – that’s how it is! And how simple it is, good Lord! Why, I could have written it myself! Why, indeed, shouldn’t I have written it myself!”

from Poor Folk by Fyodor Dostoyevsky

Book Description

At last, an insider's view of the "lost" Lucy years......Few people knew America's comic sweetheart Lucille Ball the way Lee Tannen did. Lee first met Lucy as a child but cemented their close and enduring friendship as an adult. During the last ten years of Lucy's life-years mostly lived out of the spotlight--Lee became Lucy's confidante in her Beverly Hills and Palm Springs hideaways traveled with her and entertained her on his turf in New York City.I Loved Lucy is an intimate portrait of a woman whose public face is all too well known.For the first time, we get a glimpse of what it was really like to be with Lucy, the way she truly was and the way she chose to live.Lee finally reveals how Lucy was like--and not like--her television alter ego, which was based on a persona well-developed over years in show business.He describes what it was like to be fed lunch by Lucy (awful) and how it felt to be her escort to the White House (wonderful). Not to mention their adventures on the ski slopes in Snowmass and endless afternoons reminiscing over Lucy's beloved custom-made backgammon tables.This is Lucy as you've never seen her or known her before, a rich and personal portrait that can only add to our love of the legend.AUTHORBIO: Lee Tannen is a writer and director living in New York City.

Customer Reviews:

We all love Lucy........2007-09-09

This was a very good read if you are into celeb biographies. It is well written and interesting. The author, a close friend of Lucille Ball's, gives plenty of info both on her good side and bad. But even the criticism is written kindly.
I just wish there had been more pictures.

Loved It.......2007-04-02

This is not supposed to be a movie star biography. It is supposed to be one man's recollection - a love letter - of a ten year friendship with the most famous redhead of all time.
Lee Tannen's loving, insightful memoir is littered with genuinely delightful moments: a true New Yorker, I loved his references to the theatergoers from New Jersey as the "bridge and tunnel crowd."
Then there's Lucy.
If a mad old lady invited you to California, underfed you, gave you only iced water to drink, then kept you hostage in the pool house so she could play backgammon with you all night, what would you do?
Tannen stayed.
The mad old lady is Lucy. She is his obsession and besides, he enjoys backgammon - her obsession.
Their verbal exchanges are hilarious. When Lee finally does win parole and insists on leaving the house to go out for breakfast at the Beverly Hills Hotel because he wants to see the Polo Lounge, she tells him it's crummy and he should go to the Fountain Room instead. (Lee says she was right. The food is great). A friend of Lucy's is waiting for him; she's another of Lucy's backgammon buddy (one who gets snarky when she's losing).
Tannen was distantly related to Lucy but closer than some of her own family. His uncle Gary Morton (Lucy's husband) doesn't come off well but isn't exactly assaulted either.
As fascinating as all this is, you know as a reader that Tannen only stayed friends because she's Lucille Ball. Some of her temper tantrums and stubbornness would send most normal people screaming out of the house straight for the airport.
But through it all you see why he did and still does love Lucy. And why you now love her even more.

Superb.......2007-01-13

Lee's book focused on the post-I-Love-Lucy Lucille Ball and shows us a real woman. His memories of his friendship with the actress are both heartwarming and real. You could feel the love that he had for this remarkable woman. I absolutely loved this book... one of my favorites.

I loved Lucy.......2005-04-27

The book I read was I loved Lucy by Lee Tannen. This book is about Lucille Ball and his relationship with Lucy. Ever since the day Lee met Lucy they were inseparable. Minus the fights they had with each other, and the times they were not together. But, when they weren't together they would talk on the phone to check up on each other. Lucy was married two times, one to Dezi Arnaz who she made the hit show "I love Lucy" with and her second marriage was with Gary Morton. Gary Morton was her producer and she fell in love with him. Gary was Lee's dad's cousin. If Lucy would have never fell in love with Gary Lee would have never been able to meet her. Lee and Lucy experienced many things together. Lucy loved Lee and he loved her. Lucy was very successful through out her life and did many television series, and movies. As I read this book I learned to love Lucy also. She was a very humble person, and I liked how she wanted to be normal, and didn't show who she was. I enjoyed reading this book, and I'm glad that I got to learn more about her.

It's not juicy - it's just GREAT! Read this book!.......2004-11-16

When I first heard about Lee Tannen's book, two questions came to me: Do I really care about Lucy? and How much more do I want to know about her? I decided to pick up the book for no other reason than for some light reading, and now I'm here to tell you - I am so VERY pleased that I did!
This is a GREAT book!
Tannen is both a fan and a family insider who got to spend the better part of an important decade with America's favorite female clown and I, for one, appreciate his honesty in his portrait of Lucy (and those around her)and for giving us details of his dealings with her. Yes, everthing and everyone is not presented as so "rosy" but that's because Lee is truthful and has no axes to grind. (If you think Gary Morton gets the shaft here - maybe it's because he deserves it! Lee knew him well, did you?). And while some may accuse Tannen of being a fanatical fan, or object to his style of referring him real-life dealings with Lucy to specific episodes of I Love Lucy, I found this to be one of the charms of the book. (What do critics of Tannen's writing style want - a boring narrative that starts and ends with "today we did this. . ." or some made-up juicy dirt? Get real!
Lee shows us that he knew Lucy, he knew the shows, he knew her background, he knew her friends, and most of all, he knew Lucy and cared for her - not as a delirious fan or follower, but as a true friend and admirer.
I found this to be such a good read, I couldn't put it down and I never wanted it to end. The humanity Tannen brings out - in both the main character and those around her - helps the reader to understand the souls within. And without these stories we'd never really know Lucy, the woman, and her times. I stopped after many a paragraph to admire the deeds of Lucy, while before this book, all I had to admire about her was the acting I saw on screen. Likewise, when I was made at Lucy's actions, knowing them still helped me to know her better than if I was simply an admirer of the silver screen. Tannen deserves credit for giving us this side of Lucy so effortlessly.
When the book concludes any reader with even a modicum of heart will have a lump in their throat and a tear in their eye. The pain in Tannen's voice is so evident, so real! It became my own pain and reminded me of all my own personal losses. So what's wrong with that?
I guarantee you'll love the book and find yourself telling Lucy tales to many a friend - for a long time!
To critics who take Tannen to task for his inside knowledge, or his style, all I can say is get over your case of jealousy. Here's a GREAT book by a guy who was fortunate enough to "be there," and we're fortunate that he's shared it all with us. I know I'm better off for the read. You will be too!

Book Description

Another great story of growing up on the prairies of Montana is born. Nedra Sterry, born in 1918 in Fort Benton, Montana, the daughter of hailed-out homesteaders, grew up in a succession of isolated one-room schools in northern and central Montana, where her mother, a teacher, eked out a living. The book traces Sterry's family through the homesteading boom, the Great Depression, World War II, and the postwar advancements brought by rural electrification. An extremely captivating, well-written story of growing up in early Montana.

Customer Reviews:

I've heard the Meadowlark.......2005-09-09

Nedra Sterry is a great story teller. This is a throughly enjoyable read; it does get a bit confusing to follow as it isn't written cronologically. Aside from that, it could have been written about any number of Montana school teachers and their families, trials, and tribulations.

What a revelation!.......2005-08-26

Being from that part of MT myself, I found this book quite compelling and a very easy read. I found myself asking questions and then being surprised at the answers it took me awhile to find out after it dawned on me what was happening. I admire the perseverance of the women who pioneered the frontier.

Nedra, you did a great job conveying the hora of living in that land back in the day. We all know it was hard but re-living it through your eyes brings it closer to reality. All we can really say, is thank God for your mother and her strong faith in education.

I enjoyed the book very much and wish that more people would take advantage of this opportunity to learn about some of the stories of our foremothers so to speak.
