Adams Books

THe book shows very good when changes applied to specific parts of the cars. For me it was the ultimate buyer's guide if you are interested in buying an original car.

This book is wonderful if your a beginner. But also good tips for pro restores!

It is hard to know who to trust out there.
If you have a good idea and you don't know where to go with it, get this book.
It will save your life. It is a step by step explantion of what you will need to know down the expensive and long road you are about to travel.

Those who are looking for a clear and complete guide to inventing for the individual inventor will appreciate this book. Mr. Barbarich starts with an explanation of how to judge whether your idea is a marketable invention, then takes you through the process from prototyping to licensing. Along the way he offers helpfull and moneysaving advice on everything from using tradeshows to negotiating strategies. I recommend that anyone who has an idea for a new product but does not know what to do next read this book, it will save you time and money and increase your chance of success.

Great pictures and ideas. Well worth the money even if you only use it for only one of the projects in this book.

This book is a great tool for the home owner. The skill level assumed by the authors is relatively low, though not zero. Like all useful books, you are assumed to have a basic understandig of basic tools and how to use them. However, special tools and techniques are explained in enough detail to be useful to the relative novice.

The projects detailed are of the most popular varieties. There is something there for you and many ideas you may not have had. Making improvements to your property and keeping it up-to-date is the best way to protect your investment. Being able to do it yourself is the best way to -maximize- your investment.

The photos provided explain most of the things you might otherwise have found mysterious.

Finally, though some of the things detailed are outside of the average homeowners skill (mine at least), there are so many things in the book, that you'll find many things you can and want to do.

This book has everything you want to know about TV Movies, Miniseries and 2 hour pilots. Very, very comprehensive. Has rating/share data as well as airdates,credits, full synopsis and detailed subject matter catagories. It is easy to find the information you are looking for because of the excellent cross-referenced sections.I reccommend this book to Film and Telivision Professional as well as to TV buffs.

This is the only book on the subject of Made for Television Movies that I have found. Very comprehensive.The credits are correct and the log lines (synopsis) of the TV Movies or Miniseries are very detailed. This is only the first edition. There are two other volumes--1994-2000 and 2000-2001....

I spent endless hours looking for a job once I graduated from college. A few times I wanted to give up and just stay home. But a college friend of mine told me about this book and my luck changed. I revised my cover letter and resume and the next thing I knew I got three interviews and three offers. Thank you Bob for helping me land the job of my dreams!!!

This book was my savior during my job search as I was preparing to graduate from college. Every book I looked at for help on resumes was designed for someone who already had professional work experience. This book shows you how to take your part time college jobs and recreational experiences and turn it into intensely desirable stuff. It shows examples of resumes by college major, with infinite examples and explanations. It was so successful for me, in fact, that I now buy it as a present for all my friends when they graduate and head into the work force.

The day I discovered how much consultants on my project were being paid for doing the same work as I was doing, I decided to be a consultant myself. Higher income is just one obvious attraction of consulting; there are many others. On the other hand it's definitely not for everyone. Alan Canton's book will help you decide for yourself. Here, in one well-written and candid package, are all the things you have to consider, from honestly assessing your job, people, organizational skills and self-discipline to the practicalities of establishing your small business *in your area* (that's an important point that other books I've seen fail to consider). In short, Computermoney answered all the unknowns in the back of my mind that were holding me back and gave me a clear and, as it turns out, accurate set of expectations of the consulting lifestyle. I have given copies of this book to six people over the years since it was first given to me. Four of them reached the same conclusion I did and are now well paid computer consultants. Good luck with your decision!

I think that anyone who considers becoming an independent consultant should read this book first. It honestly talks about risks and negative sides of contracting as well as the money that you can make as a reward for taking these risks. The style is "tongue-in-cheek", and may even seem offensive at first, but after a few pages you get a feeling that you talk to a buddy who shares the secrets of trade with you. It's fun to read, gives you a great confidence boost if you are serious about independent consulting, and is full of practical advise. I found a lot of parallels with my own consulting experiences. Definitely recommend.

This book is mandatory reading for any political science major. In a media driven age where the truth is intentionally distorted to further political agendas, Adam-Slabbert&Moodley provide the cold-blooded truth about the hypocracy of contemporary South African politics. In so doing, they lift the veil of piousness surrounding the 'heros' of the apartheid struggle and reveal the true motives of these modern day pirates. Extemely thought provoking reading.

"This timely book is comparable to a seminar on contemporary politics in South Africa. The authors are all veteran analysts of South African political changes since the 1960's. In South African terms, they are moderate left. Thus, they avoid the triumphalism of the celebrants of the demise of apartheid and instead comment searchingly on the dilemma of promoting liberal democracy while engaging in massive attempts to reduce inequality... Part serious-popular history, part comparative political analysis, part sociology, part academic journalism, the discussion is not for a beginner but for the reader already initiated into South Africana...The conclusion is rather sober: politics in the future is no longer about race but about the underclass challenging the "liberation aristocracy." Highly recommended for upper-division undergraduates, graduate students, faculty, and researchers." -H.Glickman, Haverford College Taken from: Choice. June 1999

This is a great book that gives the reader an insider peek at the "thoughts" of the animals on the ark. My kids really enjoyed this book!

Conversations on the Ark, by Michelle Medlock Adams, is one of the most wonderfully written and beautifully illustrated children's books I have ever read! Adams delightfully descriptive writing puts us all on board Noah's ark for an unforgettable journey with animals....God's wonderful creation! We are able to listen to their conversations with one another as they brave the storm! I just adored the story and recommend it for all children....and adults!!!

P.S. Kudos to the illustrator, Lucy Corvino!

this book is so cool cus its true and it tells the truth about the government. /ps. dont let the government skrew you over like thay did to dennis r.trist, hes a realy cool guy.

Documentation galore. While the book is a bit outdated, the material still holds much truth with respect to current politics. Good luck trying to find a copy, this has been out of print for some time. According to Powell, this supposed non-profit think tank and its numerous spinoff's have established themselves in the confines of Washington as a purely research/academic oriented organization with the intent to change public policy for the better. Unfortunately, he finds many of their founders and directors along with published literature and recorded discussion groups to have an opposite appeal and hidden agenda. Admittedly, the book is leftist centered and this reviewer is not going to deny that the right is not involved in their own misdeeds, but after investigating much of the bibliography I found that the documentation speaks for itself and gives a wonderful insight into the labyrinth of power politics. Be frightened, be very frightened, this is not something many are willing to admit much less accept, especially with so many still involved. Research what you have trouble swallowing, you just might come away a disheartened believer.

Backcover:

Opposites attract....

After too many disasters, Jazz Blum has sworn off love for good. Not that offbeat, beautiful Jazz plans to stay home nights-she just doesn't want to get serious. So when Peters Ashcroft, the straitlaced society boy of Governor's High, asks her to a fancy ball. Jazz accepts. She thinks there's no way she could ever get serious about a guy like Peters.

But Jazz is in for a surpirse. Underneath his buttoned-down exterior, Peters is the funniest, most adorable guy she's ever met. Suddenly it's not the one-night fling Jazz had planned on. But just when Jazz is ready to break her vow and get serious. Peters cools off. Is Jazz headed for heartbreak all over again?

My review:

his book reminds me of an old 80's movie. It's funny, heart warming, and true to life. Anyone who is lucky enough to find a copy of this book, will be happy.

This is one of the best book I have ever read. It's about this girl(who is like one of those independent, feisty red-hair heroine you read in historic romance novels)that have dated the star quarterback and broke his ankle on a make-out island. She met Peter who is one of those nerdy(but really cute) boy who is destined to go to Yale and they totally clash, but Peter convinced her to be his date to a party to keep him out of the clutches of two evil sisters that have major crusheson him. And from there the story goes on. Please read it, it's one of the funniest, romantic novel you will ever read.
