If you want to mix a little history in with your bedtime story experience,this book is charming beyond words. The premise is simple: seeing how a mouse family lived 100 years ago. The illustrations make the book come to life and you can talk about life in the old days, contrasting the book's pictures with today's pace and lifestyle. Great treat for both children and adults. Companion book: City Mouse House is just as terrific and together they make a wonderful way to explore cultural differences. They are a must buy for your family library!

Crisis Management Expertise In Your Back Pocket
Helpful Votes: 4 out of 4 total.
Review Date: 2000-05-10
This book provides an excellent overview of how to help others who are experiencing crisis.

If you want to learn how to help people manage crisis situations, you can spend a few hundred dollars and two days sitting in an uncomfortable chair straining to see unintellegible overheads and listening to a charismatic sage on the stage. You can spend a hundred dollars on a text that catalogues the details about every manner of client problem and how to address those details. You'd be much better served by reading this book and keeping it close as an accessible reference about how to really help people.

This is an excellent book about the nuts-and-bolts or how to help people when they're experiencing crises. Although this book provides a clear understanding of the theoretical underpinnings of crisis management, the primary focus is on techniques of helping and the concrete aspects of interacting effectively with people that are hurting. This is a book for those who want to "do" rather than just think about doing. Crisis Management and Brief Treatment: Theory, Technique, and Applications is not the comprehensive treatise that other handbooks aspire to be. It is an affordable, readable guide for those who want to get on to the business of helping. As with other interpersonal interventions, one needs to understand the concepts or theories of the intervention, one needs to identify the specific techniques of associated with operationalizing those techniques, and one needs to know how to adapt those techniques and skills to the specific people and situation of immediate concern. This concise text is THE book to guide the reader in this process.

Do your friends or clients a favor. Buy this book and learn how to help them when they're really hurting.

Chilling and emotional
Helpful Votes: 4 out of 5 total.
Review Date: 2000-07-26
This film manages to be chilling and haunting without being classified as such a film. The subject is one of immortal controversy, of a religion that has been debated about from the beginning of time: witchcraft. Women were mistakenly burnt, being accused of practicing witchcraft, which in reality is a more peaceful and earth-rejoicing religion than most others, though most people wouldn't have you aware of that. Women were stripped, hanged, burnt and mamed in front of all the village people. I myself have read much on the religion and that contributed all the more to my disturbance but pure enjoyment in watching this film. One of the times I watched it I started crying. It's so sad the trials and hysteria that took place. The people who were under the illusion they were doing God's work, when really they were killing innocent people. Sad. The film has a tremendous script, solid directing and excellent, spooky acting. A great thanks to the camera angles in contributing to the overall haunting feeling of this film. A chilling and emotional experience.

Fantastic survery of key papers/articles in medical genetics

Review Date: 2001-01-03
This was a fantastic book in my experience! It would help to have some science background, but the types of papers vary from being popular articles to more scientific. This is excellent for people that are undergrad science majors, medical students, and physicians that want to know more about this most important field.

I use SpaceMaster, as well as other ICE publications as source materials for my campaigns. This system is easy to incorporate into any existing RPG that needs a touch of the futristic. Check out RoleMaster as well.

Is your financial life a hopeless mess? Would you like to have greater abundance and prosperity instead? Daily Financial Journal by Yvonne Brooks may be the most wonderful key to improved financial prosperity you will ever find!

Every time I've used this book faithfully to record my financial hopes and dreams, my prosperity has increased. I urge you to give it a try. The results are nothing short of amazing.

Soothing Songs
Helpful Votes: 1 out of 1 total.
Review Date: 2005-07-15
From sonnets to blank verse, spiritual and mystical from the ancient to present; from legends and goddesses to love and relationships, mothers and daughters, this reader truly enjoyed the turn of each page and relaxing in the beauty of Steven Shields' crafted forms woven rich in imagery and velvet smoothness to the tongue and senses with lines such as: "When twilight comes with open silky arms." Each poem is a tribute and takes the reader to a different place, time, and emotion and evokes the desire to revisit each work more than once in order to absorb more pleasure. Daimonion Sonata is a beautiful compilation deserving to be a part of any poet lover's collection.

our daughter, now 22 months, loves this book. she has brought it to the doctor three times and asks for it all the time. it has been really helpful to show her daisy performing the same tasks and tests on her patients that elliott is to have done to her. when she begins to get upset at the doc, we pull out the book and look at it together and try to find objects in the office that we see in the book. fun clay figures and great definitions of medical jargon at the end for the little ones to learn.
