Z Books

I have several hundred books on decorating, and this is on my top ten list. Through detailed questionnaires, the authors help you narrow and define your own personal style. Then, through superb photography and text, they show you how to achieve the rich, opulent look that will suit you on a budget.. This book is divided into different styles, and covers them all well. The only person who might not benefit from this one is a pure minimalist, and even she (or he) would love the elegant Japanese style as presented here. This book is on my permanent bookshelf and is a keeper....I never loan this one out.

I collect decorating books. As far as I am concerned, this is one of the best in my library. The author shows the manner in which, without spending top dollar, one can create the illusion of opulence in several different styles. Highly recommended.

This book is great for coaches just getting started with a new program. It highlights the little "extras" to think about before a season begins as well as during and after season. There is so much to think about and this book makes sure that things aren't over looked. I highly recommend this book to new volleyball coaches.

This book is great for new high school coaches that are trying to build their program. There is ample information about practice content and design as well as a checklist for the performance components of each individual skill. Unlike many other volleyball books, this one contains vauluable information about running tournaments, fundraisers, and starting a youth league. I would strongly recomend this book to anyone who has recently started coaching the sport of volleyball.

The basics of nutrition and how it relates to diabetes is covered in Diabetes Nutrition A To Z, a primer which explains everything from carbohydrate counting, fats and fiber to sugars and side effects of common diabetes drugs. The A-Z arrangement lends to quick look-up referencing.

Authors Lea Ann Holzmeister and Patti B. Geil have complied a great reference book on nutrition as it relates to diabetes. It actually does take you from A to Z with information on everything that you might need to know a little about. It deals with alcohol, antioxidants, blood fats (Lipids), caffeine, calories, carbohydrates, insulin issues, cholesterol, glucose intolerance, kertones, preventing diabetes, metabolism, protein, and weight control as examples of how broad in scope the information is within these pages.

The book also gives you definitions of terms and organizations and treatments so you can also expand your over-all knowledge of how to deal with this disease. It is simply written and easy to understand. Nothing complicated about the book, which would make it a good book to gift to someone with diabetes. It is a quick education on this disease and a book that one should have in their medical reference library at home.

This one book, and its brother, "Distillation Operations," seem to capture all the theoretical and empirical knowledge of vapor-liquid separation in two tidy volumes. I just don't see how Henry Kister can top this with his new book, "Distillation Troubleshooting." Donald Schneider wrote an excellent review of this book for Amazon. When you buy "Distillation Design" take "Distillation Operations" as well. If you must choose, pick "Distillation Operations." However, if you do, you will miss some excellent design information. "Distillation Operations" describes several mis-steps in commissioning and operating columns.

"Distillation Design" is divided into tray columns and packed columns. Each section begins with theoretical development and ends with empirical data. Where else can you expect to find methods to compare different random packing or estimates for stage height? As an engineer experienced in packed tower design, I found his descriptions of different classes of packing very useful. He took the point of view of a historian on this subject allowing the reader to follow the development of random packing from the raschig ring through to modern packing.

How do these volumes compare to other references such as Ludwig's "Applied Process Design?" Ludwig is excellent but it is more difficult to find what you need. Kister's two volumes are more specific and slightly easier to follow. Consider Ludwig's book later when you are designing nuts and bolt details of columns. For case histories, and basic knowledge of vapor-liquid separation, you can't beat "Distillation Design" and "Distillation Operations."

If you don't have this book on your shelf you should. If you are just starting out in the business, and can't afford both volumes, buy "Distillation Operations." But, if you will be involved directly in the design business, as I am, buy both volumes.

If this review was helpful, please add your vote.

This book is must for process engineer esp. engineer in Petroleun and Refinery business. Written in very lucid manner shows the author is not only technically competent but has extensive experience in the industry. His book on " Distillation Operation" is also highly recomended.

Congrats and good luck Newt!

With cover art like this, the book will sell itself! And it'sbeen chosen by Newtloot.com as one of a select handful of officialwedding gifts for Newt Gingrich's upcoming third trip to the altar.

In a way, this book seemed so real. Sometimes we are pressured into marrying someone out of status rather than out of love. Such was the case of the doctor and his psychiatrist wife who married each other but were not happy and fulfilled. He finally released the front he put on and divorced her, and married the girl who really made him happy. This book was also 'real' in the fact that sometimes we don't realize how much we love and care about someone. But the truth will always come to surface, and sometimes it takes death to make it come to the surface. I could relate to this book because I could get in touch with my feelings, and see how things that I've experienced has happened to the characters of the book (and I know it happens in real life, too). I would highly recommend reading this novel. Very good book.

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. The doctor was a people-pleaser and married someone with whom he was not happy. He finally did what made him happy. This book is worth looking for at a used book store or the library. Any book by Elizabeth Seifert is good.

You should read this book it's awesome, Dragonballz is about a guy named gokufrom a sayion race.His real name is Kakorot He is from planet Vegeta.But sent to destroy Earth when he was a baby.

So get ready people here comes the sayion. But who are the sayions and why are they evil. Find out when you read Dragonballz.

This book is my favorite of the Dragonball Z books I have read so far. It has one of the best battles in all of the series as Vegeta and Goku test each others limits. Each time Vegeta seems to be beaten he comes back from the dead. This is probably the first truly great battle of the series. Finally, vegeta is defeated when Gohan transforms into a giant ape and then falls on him. You should definitely buy the first four books of the series as they set the stage for the adventures to come.

This one is the best in the DBZ series that I have ever read! It is awesome when Yajirob, Goku, Gohan, and Kururin are all fighting Vegeta. All I can say now is the battles in this one kick the other ones tushies! Take my advice and get this product!

volume 4 in the DBZ series is the best yet. with the most action and best battles this book has yet to be beaten by the other three novels. i really enjoyed this book and look forward to others in the future. if you like DBZ then you'll love this book. I recommend this to all DBZ fans.

Not only do you get a very complete guide that shows you everything from codes to unlock everything and cheats to make some tough game play easier but it comes with a free DVD with a few episodes of GT. It's very much worth getting.

this is a really great guide! it gives you charecter bios, how to unlock them and what capsules you should use on them! Also a complete walkthrough of dragon world, a list of all the capsules and game secrets. and very easy to understand!

This book is great! It's a really good Dragonball book. If you have a little kid that wants to get a Dragonball book, get him this one. Some of the other ones have things that might not be too good for little children to see ( vol.1 has some nudity.) I've read it like, 7 times aleady! You should buy it!

i read it 15 times in one month! its a lot funnier than dbz, and it lets you know the characters personalities a LOT more. you should buy it now!!
