Arnold Books

CNN's Cold War Documentary: Issues And Controversy is based on the international television news operation's twenty-four part series on the history of the Cold War that generated passionate discussion among scholars and media specialists. This compilation of articles, commentaries, and reviews fairly presents all sides of the debate. The contributors are as impressive and diverse as their essays. This collection of informative and challenging essays is an enduring, welcome contribution to the annals of television journalism and Cold War histories.

As a sample survey practitioner for over 25 years, I very highly recommend this book. It accomplishes what other books claim but fail, to be both for novices as well as the more experienced.

The author graciously understates his position as one of the luminaries of sampling, as evidenced by his professional publications from the 1960's, to his colleagues choosing him to write six entries (at last count) on various aspects of sample surveys in the Encyclopedia of Statistical Sciences. The author is a major contributor to the main theoretical approaches, as well as their arbitrator and conciliator. His depth of understanding of both approaches (he has "been there", after all) coupled with his clear writing style allows him to gently guide the reader through this fascinating and important area, engaging us with a seemingly whimsical but ultimately profound exercise in weighing elephants!

Even if you only buy one book on sample surveys, buy this one.

I have several of the Compass Guides, for every state we've visited or lived in. You're not going to find hotel or restaurant guide listings here. What you will find are great color photos and a terrific narrative story. You'll read all the history, learn about the top places to visit. These books are very nice to keep on the bookshelf for others to enjoy for years to come.

Christina Feldman has written an outstanding essay on compassion. She courageously and clearly explores her topic with confidence. Compassion is a multi-faceted experience, complex and richly textured, and Feldman has been able to illuminate it beautifully. I would call her understanding of compassion comprehensive and creative, including her meditations on the various aspects of the topic. If you only read one book in your life time on compassion, may it be this one. This book will change how you think, how you approach yourself, how you approach others, how you approach the world. A must read for anyone on a spiritual path.

These series of books have a lot to offer.They offer more advice,easier explanations and affordable than most books.They're good value.

As for this book it explains everything you would want to know before investing your money in any franchise business.What to look for,what to consider and so much more.I learned a lot from this book.

I read this book several years ago. The material in it is very well organized and detailed. The techniques are clearly layed out and explained. There is a section on sugar sculpting that would prove very useful for the professional pastry chef. Although the sections are great and the book has many recipies, this is definetely a book for a professional; since the emphasis is more on technique than on recipies.

From the early Chumash story to the founding family histories this book is facinating and informative. It gives insight into the history of the county when it was Mission owned, Spanish owned and finally became a part of the territories of the United States, all of which affected it's outcome and growth. Meet the Camarillo family, the Daily Brothers, the Maulhardt and Borchards, Bud Smith and the McGrath's - families who have had a notable and lasting influence on the outcome and continuing development of the County of Ventura.
The book is presented firstly as an historic overview of the county and then as a series of personal stories about the individuals and families who are so well remembered here. It is personal and personable. I will treasure mine always.

Your statement that she has not published since 1994 is erroneous. The book I am seeking is ISBN 0-618-00005-8. I need it yesterday!. She is one of the BEST writers to put pen to paper. (I read the previous edition.) I must have the new edition for class. She does not waste your time or eyeballs with self-serving repetition. Read what you need; re-read what you need. Not too weighty and worth it's weight. Kudos to Ms. Forcht!

I have had the pleasure of working with Dr. Amstutz very closely and he is one of those rare individuals walking the earth who is always concieving solutions that are about 10-15 years ahead of their time. The only thing matching his intellect is his charm.
