The title says it all..........2007-04-11

I agree with other reviewers - great recipes for preserving your excess pods. I don't think the authors ever intended that this would be 'the definitive' guide, more a book of ideas to get you started. For the price I don't think you could find a better book anywhere covering this subject matter!

I recommend this book to anyone who is or isn't a chilehead as I'm sure both will enjoy its contents. Dave Dewitt is an excellent author who knows his subject very well.

Pck a Pepper.......2005-08-14

Lots of good recipes.
Lots of good ways to store for future use.
Too generic in the use of names of the peppers which should be used in each recipe. Why use "New Mexico" or "Hot" instead of the variety you are actually proposing?
I would reccomend to anyone who is not a pepper freak...

Pepper pot.......2005-07-25

This is a short sweet dip into the world of peppers...not a definitive work by any stretch of the imagination. It's great for a gift or for a taste of pepper mania. Believe it or not, there are those who do not have a passion for peppers--this is the book for them. However, for the serious pepper freak or gardner, I suggest Dewitt's Encyclopedia of Peppers or The Spicy Food Lover's Bible. Both are excellent resources. Dewitt is one of the world's foremost authorities on the subject of peppers so any of his more extensive works are a benefit.

Nice little book.............2004-07-04

I'm still trying to find the definitive pepper book, and TOO MANY PEPPERS by Dave De Witt is not that book. I began growing hot peppers this season, and would like to find a book a step up from the EDIBLE PEPPER GARDEN by Rosalind Creasy which although an interesting and colorful book with garden tips and a few recipes is not nearly comprehensive enough. DeWitt's book includes a few pages on growing peppers, but is more about what to do with peppers after you have them in hand. Unfortunately, the peppers one purchases are not nearly as fresh and good as those one can grow.

This is a nice little cookbook (less than 100 small pages), spiral bound with recipes printed on pages that will withstand splatters. The book covers freezing peppers (mash, sauce chutney, Gazpacho, stew); making powders, pastes, and sauces; smoking peppers (salsa, hot sauce, Chipotle, baked beans); pickling peppers alone or in combination with other vegetables such as squash, onions or beans; and preservation in the form of vinegars, oils, liquors, condiments such as Jalepeno Mustard and jelly and Chile butter.

I have to give the book three stars because there are no color photographs. If you can imagine Habaneros, Jalapenos, and Serranos in black and white, you get the picture.

Laughable predictions.......2002-01-03

I pick up this book in the local library. I am glad I did not waste money to but this book. Buckett claims that he is a Christian but he lacks Christian character in the introduction. "... a Christian finanial planner, who is not very successful in his own right, wrote a book in which he attacked my previous book..." He may disagee on what other people say about him, but calling names like "not very successful" is not a Christian act.

Some of the terms stated in the book is just wrong. e.g. "Treasury bills are fairly illiquid investments, because you need to hold them for a year or more." (p. 61) This is not true. T-bills are the most liquid investment you can find for SHORT term money. T-bill are short term investment with a 365 days maturity or less. I never heard of anybody who could not sell their T-bills and have to wait to maturity.

Most predictions (if not all) provided by Backett in chapter 4 about the economic fallout from Y2K are ridicous and wrong. As we know now those predictions never happened.

"Our immigrant population, rising medical costs, national defence, and particularly our nation's moral bankruptcy must all be reckoned as economic liabilities." (p. 95) Buckett tries to blame immigrants for the economic problems in the nation is just down right racist.

This is just another of his book to misuse the Bible for his fundamentist ideas. I just wondered, what would Jesus do with this book?

Book Description

After an analysis of the legal and philosophical issues bearing on the idea of humanitarian intervention, defined as the use of force by one or more states to remedy severe human rights abuses in a particular country--this study focuses upon the moral duties that individual members of the international community have toward the welfare of others. Recent events have indicated that humanitarian intervention will likely play a larger role in international relations in the future. Examples in the contemporary period include Kosovo Somalia, Liberia, Haiti, the Kurds in Iraq, Uganda, and East Pakistan. This book emphasizes the role of the United States in humanitarian intervention and argues that increased American involvement is essential. Garrett suggests that the American people as a whole may be more prepared to see the United States take an active role in humanitarian intervention than are certain media and government "elites." Strong national leadership that stresses the moral duty of the United States will be necessary to tap this latent altruism in order to contribute to higher standards of international human rights. Individual topics include assessment criteria for the moral legitimacy of intervention, unilateral versus multilateral efforts, and factors that appear to persuade or dissuade states from participating in such intervention. This volume focuses on certain themes and patterns in humanitarian intervention, which are then illustrated by using historical data taken from a variety of different examples.

Book Description

I am a mental health consumer. This is my memoir about my (past) experiences of being psychotic; having been diagnosed Schizo-affective, in April of 2001.

It is a very vivid description of what I went through for several weeks being psychotic, before I was finally hospitalized. I struggled with a relapse, but I was stabilized and eventually got my life back together.

I believe there are not enough books out there that are first hand accounts of psychosis. I think my book helps alleviate a lot of the stigma and misunderstandings of mental illness. And I also believe that I am fortunate to have recovered enough, along with my medications, to be able to write about it.

Customer Reviews:

Informative book.......2006-11-04

This book at first is quite confusing and alittle religious (Christianity area) but it is understable that the voices and maybe visions by the mental disorder called "shizophrenia" can be rather scattering. Maybe the author can write down the list of visions and voices in the TABLE with how he and other non-psychotic people reacted to them so that the readers can understand what he has been through. Some credits for the author: he states the medicine names and those amounts. He might think there were not many story books/documentary books on psychosis when in fact there is a guide showing a long list of books on psychosis at the bottom of the page showing each book after some reviews.
