This is a very amusing book giving great advice on how to become really stressed. Every page is another laugh! It certainly hits the point that we all do stressful things that we do not really need to. Best little book I have ever read.

When I read this book my stress level went higher than ever. My blood pressure almost took off! The lift was really worthwhile. I have now taken to nail-biting and stomping with a view to head banging! What a hit! The Little Book of Stress is such a hoot that owls will need to take up laughing. Who needs relaxation classes when your nerves can be twanged to the tune of the William Tell Overture. In short "Don't Panic" just read this book and tear your hair out. You owe it to yourself

It make me feel good that on a Busy morning I can drop a "love" note in my child lunch box. All I do is add "love Mom" or add a line. My kids bring them back home so I can reuse them. They love to see if they get it again. Before I got the book, I was having a hard time thinking up things to write about. These notes are great. There are very colorfully, and have Great saying on them. You will have a hard time picking out which one to send with child ever day because they are all so good.

Great self-esteem builder!!!!

Wonderful little tear-out notes with special sayings to place in your kids lunchboxes! I enjoy letting my children know that we (Mom & Dad) are thinking about them, that they are special, and we appreciate their efforts on accomplishing set goals. My children love getting these special notes, my ten year old son even saved his and put them on his bulletin board!! It means a lot more to your children than you will ever know! Hope Ms. Stevens will put out another book with more notes.

From Ancient Wisdom to 21st Century Thinking
Helpful Votes: 7 out of 8 total.
Review Date: 1999-12-23
In his book, "Love is by God," David James provides a sensitive, intuitive analysis of what gnaws at society today, violence, greed, consumerism, the constant need for entertainment, pre-occupation with self. It is this way because "we made it that way." He enshrouds his creative thinking with quotes of truisms, sayings and proverbs from gurus over the ages. What ails the individual ails society as a whole. James found peace after an agonizing search over the years. He finds peace must actively be practiced and shared: "You be the one to bring a little peace into someone's life." The many quotes within the book allude to the fact that humankind through the ages has and is searching for words (belief systems) to live by. James discovers that "the kingdom of god is within" (self actualization) and we are to spread joy, peace, hope, and love. If we each practice these things, collectively society improves. James examines traditional thinking of religion and awakens our senses to examine different ways: "the way of always seeing humanity in separate parts, each one needing to be attacked therefore taken under control, or the way of not excluding anybody from love, the way of total peace, the way devoid of fear." The book is more than a "New Age twist of ancient wisdom." It is a drawing from ancient wisdom to help us realize the truth of the present. To me, "Love is by God" is an inspirational guide leading us into 21st Century thinking.

Hard Core Spirituality

Review Date: 1999-11-18
Wow. This is a tornado of spirituality that will just not let up. He writes with conviction, passion, and an obvious deep love for bringing people together RIGHT NOW rather than later. I was very skeptical at first, because of the title. But after reading it (and re-reading it) it sinks in and stays with you. I find myself quoting from it and talking about it with my friends at church. It makes for very interesting discussions -- all of which eventually go back to the author's main question: Would you rather be right, or be at peace? I think that is just an awesome way to look at world religions. Get with it folks!

I had this book when I was a little girl and loved it!! (It was published a year after I was born so it's been in my heart for a while). A friend of mine asked if I could pick up some books for her at the library and it was in her pile of many. I recognized it right away and started reading it while I was waiting to be checked out. I could not resist finishing it so I did - in the parking lot! I got that warm, tingly feeling all over. As soon as I walked in the door, I knew that I had to find it online! I feel like I've found the golden ticket. It is truly timeless. I'm getting it for a few friends and for my children - okay it's for me but they'll love it too!

This book can make anyone feel all tingly inside.

I would read this book when I was depressed from the time I was a little girl until now. At age 17, I still read this book when I am upset and it has yet to lose it's ability to make me feel better. Every page brings a smile to my face.

A whimsical tribute to love
Helpful Votes: 1 out of 1 total.
Review Date: 2001-04-01
"Love, Love, Love," by Andy Warhol, reproduces several different works, done in various media, by graphic artist Andy Warhol. Some of the selections are black-and-white, and some are in full color. These drawings and paintings are complemented by many quotes from Andy Warhol on the title subject.

This is a delightful book, full of witty and whimsical images. Hearts, flowers, angels, lips, and other motifs are frequently used. This is a great book both for both Warhol devotees and for general readers.

Great lines, great pictures...

If you're in love with someone you'll most definitely appreciate all the quotes in this little book. Its a gem. The quotes are so true, maintaining such a good sense of reality while at the same time the thoughts are so lofty and yet true of any people who are in love.

This is a perfect gift for your girlfriend, wife or anyone you're in deep love with.

The first 20 pages is a brief summary of her life/work, then the rest of the pages are quotes by her. I like the one-quote-per-page format because it is thought provoking and inspiring, allows the reader to reflect upon and digest what you just read.
I also like the Martin Luther King "Dearm" book in this series

A great idea, in an unuaually busy world a nice way to show some one that you care. This book has little tear a way sections that you can share with others. Read the book yourself and then share the tear aways with whom ever. Leave one on the mirror so the it is the first thing that the intended see's when they wake. I put a couple of these in my childs lunch bag and at first he gave me that silly grin, like I embarrassed him, but when a big concert was coming up and I forgot to include one he noticed. I am not usually the kind of person to speak my thoughts and this made it easier to cheer my family on in their day to day adventures.
