My little cousin loves Handy Manny and this book put the icing on the cake! He reads it before he goes to bed at night!

Well written with clear descriptions of terminology. For anyone in a relationship with a crossdresser, this book provides insight and compassionate suggestions for dealing with the situation. It acknowledges that people may be supportive without participating in the activity and that those people may also have needs that must be met. It addresses the crossdresser as well as other family members and friends who may wish more information about the subject

The book use a simply way to transmite the information. The examples are rich and they reflect the real necessities of the professionals today. The 2 cd's have a lot of example that can help a lot. The demos programs are very good! If you want a BEST SELLER, you found it! REALLY BEST BUY.

Langsner's book is one of the finest and most comprehensible woodworking guides on the market. Langsner writes with an enthusiasm and clarity that keeps the reading engaging, though the book is more interesting to readers with at least rudimentary experience with woodworking. Most importantly, he is not so vague that his projects could not be duplicated by an amateur, but he is not so detailed as to discourage innovation. He uses hand tools almost exclusively, so don't expect directions on using a table saw or drill press. The author has included chapters on making shaving horses, milking stools, tables, brooms, hay rakes, wooden spoons and harrows, and his wife has added chapters on basketry and other crafts. Pictures and illustrations are in black-and-white, but they are well-placed and nicely illustrate the components of the project, as well as the finished item. I highly recommend this work to anyone interested in making wooden items with hand tools.

A wonderful ananlysis of a much-neglected topic.

This book allows you to 'get your feet wet' in crafting without having to spend a huge amount of money. It doesnt talk down to you or use a lot of jargon. All round I think its a pretty good beginners book.

This book is a great companion for anyone trying to lose weight. As a health professional that has worked for years with people losing weight, the hardest part is getting people to understand that for the weight to come off you need to tackle inner issues along with it. This book helps you do that. I have read it myself and recommend it to all my clients who find it a fantastic help and tell me they read it once through and then continually revisit it for support, guidance, and motivation.

I recently purchased 2 decks of the cards, one for myself and a friend who reads tarot. I used my intuition to guide me while focusing on a problem and drawing one card at a time. It unfolded like I was having a conversation with a friend. I instantly knew what my inner voice had been trying to communicate to me. The cards are so simple to understand. I tend to go with the first thought or feeling I have about what the cards are trying to communicate to me. It's easy using the cards, and I can always read the book if I need more information. Kids could use them! These are a great gift for yourself or anyone care about! -- David VanOsdol, Real Estate Broker
