E. E. Cummings Books

For a textbook, this book is rather readable. The type is a good size, and it contains a lot of pictures and diagrams. The included CD is also very handy; it contains the full text of the textbook in searchable PDF format (minus some copyrighted photos) plus sample quizzes, videos, weblinks, and sound clips. Each chapter begins with a short "story" that features a character who has a good healthstyle and a character who has a negative healthstyle. The writing is also relatively informal and easy to understand. I learned a lot from the chapters, especially the one on nutrition.

Lost this book. Would love to experience it with my beautiful, sexy, livid wife!!!

It is difficult to put into words the complex beauty of this book. If you are not familiar with the poetry of E.E. Cummings, this book will make you a surefire fan. The verse is sensitive, gentle and intimate. Beautifully paired with the whimsical, delicate and ever-bright illustrations by Mary Claire Smith, this book will sing to you and your child's hearts.

There are very few stories about Christmas which capture the essence of what all the decorations and packages truly represent. This is one of those few. The illustrations bring us back to a time when family and friends, hand-made gifts and music together were what were truly valued. Where Christmas was a festival which celebrated warmth, light, life and love.

For those who are sensitive to the masses of trees which are erased from our earth each Christmas, please take a look at this book. I especially appreciate that the angel who takes the tree from the forest to the child carries the tree with roots intact and then, through Ms. Smith's illustrations, the tree is pictured potted. The tree in this book is a true symbol of Life.

This book is one our family will treaure for generations to come.

I use this book every day as does my husband and many of our friends. It reminds us to spend time with the Lord reading His word and talking with Him. It has blank spaces to fill in to remind us for whom to pray daily and weekly. I find it encouraging and inspiring. Oh, by the way, when I read it, I almost forget that I'm the author. I was led to write this book (in the original form) for the church where my husband was pastor for ten years (Goodyear, AZ). Last year I wrote an enhanced version for a "general audience." Whether you buy the book or not, I encourage you to spend time with your Creator God who is also the Servant King, Jesus Christ. He wants to spend time with you!

A must have for cummings lovers and poetry addicts in general. The collection of poems put together in this book will leave you craving for more and yet will let your slip into the dark places in your mind to constantly analyse the poem you're reading while analysing yourself. A must have in your collection.

This is a great book if you like Cummings, it just about covers it all.

The nonlectures are titled:

i & my parents
i & their son
i & selfdiscovery
i & you & is
i & now & him
i & am & santa claus.

A list of readings of works referred to in the text concludes this collection.

I am in a unique position to make mention of this book. I am currently a graduate student at the University of Wisconsin. I originally used this book, in unpublished form, as a freshman in Dr. Siska's course. As a senior I helped to teach from this book by holding extra help session for Dr. Siska. Since then, I have had the opportunity to teach from two other general chemistry books. Dr. Siska's University Chemistry is the most physically oriented general chemistry book you are likely to come by. His general approach allows for any budding young chemist to gain an impeccable understanding of the physical foundation of chemistry. Additionally, this text does not read like most introductory texts. Dr. Siska's humor and love for the history of science shine through. I looked back at the unpublished versions of this text many times during my undergraduate education and obtained a hard cover version as soon as I could. I highly recommend this book.

ee cummings is my favorite poet, so obviously I'm a little biased. But if you love poetry you'll appreciate cummings' unique style, emotion, thought process and expression that will make you think about what his writing means for days on end.

I've tried to illustrate his poems, never doing them any justice, but it's a fun exercise in understanding what he felt when writing.

If you're knew to ee I would suggest reading one of his poems, just one... flip through the book and pick any single one of them, then you'll know what I mean.

I need to read 3 specific poems, and there's no way to see if they are included without being able to : "See Inside".

The book arrived on-time and in perfect condition. Amazon is much preferred over any store because of their dependability and cheap prices.

This is such a great and complete collection of his poetry. It's easily readable (good font size and style). it's divided very well to and easily searchable in the index to find exactly what you're looking for. i love it so much and enjoy just flipping thru and discovering new poems of his i've never read. so amazing.

"E. E. Cummings: Complete Poems (1904-1962)" runs a thousand fifty pages long, not counting the first-line index. In those thousand pages, you get to know the man Cummings like he was your neighbor or even your drinking buddy. I read the book in two weeks: most of the poems were less than one page. Reading the book was like having a conversation with the man's spirit.

Had to buy it for Biology 101.
Its a very animated and educational textbook.

The language wasnt difficult to comprehend.

My son received the book for his class so at the present time I am unable to review with comments

Thanks

Even though I was told it had a dent in the spine, it was so small and at the bottom of it that I had to look very close to the book spine to see it. It was in better condition. It also showed up at the given dates.

The book helped me a lot. I never had general biology before taking the exam. For best use, I read "Biology: Life on Earth" to give an overview of the topic and the major mechanisms behind it. Then, I used other textbooks which had much more details on the subject. This method worked well, for example, for DNA replication and Protein Synthesis on which "Biology: Life on Earth" seems to have left out some information. So this is a great biology "starter" and if you decide/need to know more, other in-depth textbooks will be helpful.

The first book I received had about 25 pages that were defective but that was quickly replaced with a new one. I really wish I did not have to buy it but since I did, the book was OK as far as a text book goes.
