I read the 1982 version, and am trying to get the updated version. It's like having a dictionary in your house -- it's a must! An important book for feminists (of both sexes) even if they aren't Jewish or aren't Lesbian.

Interesting Grisham tale of a lawyer that takes millions of dollars from his firm after faking his own death. Grisham usually is able to hook his readers early and ,in this case, doesn't play his hand to soon. The usually reliable Frank Mueller makes this story even an even better bet on Audiobook.

Good cross reference material. Drugs broken down in different catagories is helpful. Could use more information about drugs, ie. not all dosages are listed.

Review Date: 2001-12-05
Arranged conveniently by topics, this book is quite a gem and very appealing.

A very good companion to the book of Proverbs but it should not replace reading the book of Proverbs in its sequence.

Highly recommended.

Make it Dame Julie Goodyear MBE Please!
Helpful Votes: 0 out of 0 total.
Review Date: 2008-03-11
If you are a fan of British soaps especially Coronation Street which is the country's oldest soap, you can't mistake Julie Goodyear who plays Bet Lynch, the sassy and brassy barmaid from 1970 to 1995. She is one of the best known celebrity and female actresses in Britain. Of course, she doesn't do Shakespeare like her peers but who cares. The book does detail her upbringing including her parents and her life in Northern England in a hamlet called Heywood, Lancashire, England where she lives with her fourth husband, SCott Brand, not in this book. He's 26 years younger than Julie but she still looks fabulous. This book came after she was awarded the M.B.E. (Member of the Order of the British Empire) which is the first level on the Order followed by Officer, Commander, and Finally Dame. I think the actors and actresses on British soaps deserve the same recognition that their peers who do Shakespeare and plays. Coronation Street is hard work. It's not easy and that's because few like Julie are willing to play the same character for years. THe people who work on Coronation Street are much like a family. As it will celebrate it's 50th or golden anniversary, it will be the first British show to do it. It's stars and the creator, Tony Warren, deserve the same honors as their peers who do theater, film, or other television. Soaps even in Britain get no respect. The one holdup regarding this book is the suggestion that Julie is a lesbian. Since she was involved in an 11 year romance with Scott Brand who is 26 years younger than herself, they married last August in a lavish ceremony and also she had three heterosexual marriages. She might have dabbled in lesbian romances or affairs but she is definitely not one now.

If you are at all aware of any of the major financial transactions that occured throught the 'crazy money' days of the eighties, you will spend a lot of the time reading the book saying to yourself 'So Jeff Beck was involved in that too!' A good mix between the cut throat world of stocks 'n shares, and one man's personal dreams and fears Definitely worth reading. If anyone wants a copy I may part with mine, but it took me a very long time to find it, so only worthwhile offers please

That backbeat that'll get ya' if ya' don't watch out
Helpful Votes: 1 out of 14 total.
Review Date: 2004-05-24
Lash invokes an opposition to modernization as a covering theory for witch burning, the attempted extermination of Crow, Cree, Ojibwa, etc. the attempted extermination of Jews and goodness knows what else. At first blush, the idea stimulates the kind of intellectual satisfaction that's supposed to be associated with a covering theory.

Then a possible hazard suggests itself...Modernism, -ization, (moderning, anyone?) is so very vague a term that the designation "opposition to modernism" could seem to apply to, well, darn near anything.

When the intent-to-critique is half-discounted to the intent-to-justify (as seems half-inevitable,) it turns out that what emerges is something like the jingoistic jingle "It's a-ok to slay anyone (or thing) that's in the way." In comparison mere Hitlerism seems positively thoughtful.

Is that where the reflexive part is supposed to come in?
