This is a wonderful book for any aspiring actor or theatre student. It contains so many different possibilities, that anyone can find what they are in need for when it comes to auditions. The backgrounds to each speech is wonderful as well. This book specifically focuses on tragedies, but comedies and histories are found in separate volumes. I look forward to using these monologues!

I read this and understand it, which is a miracle for textbooks ESPECIALLY CHEM! ;-) It's geared mainly for people entering allied health professions, which I am not (music/botany nerd here, folks), but it's still interesting to know why all the stuff in our bodies happens. I actually had fun reading the Lipid chapter and thanks to it I was able to pose for a portrait without getting bored. :-)

The Organization by T. Freeman Jr takes place in the 70s when Camden, New Jersey saw a drastic decline in population and industry workers. This tale intertwines Dominicans and African Americans in a fight to see who is the most popular in the drug game.

The Organization was the city's most powerful drug ring that touched the lowest of the low to the Mayor of the city. This no-holds-bar story told the tale of how urban youngsters made their money, fighting street wars and trying to stay out of jail. This graphically descriptive account will hold your attention from the beginning to the end, anticipating the grueling outcome.

Meet Simon "Gato" Gonzales Jr.; he is the newest kid on the set, and trying to make a name for himself without having to fall back on his grandfather's fame. Simon goes through life's biggest struggles at an early age from being abandoned by his mom to falling under the street pressures to sell drugs. Simon takes us through the streets of New Jersey through his eyes and you will not believe what you see.

With drugs being a cut throat industry, we bear witness to the grimy street ways of fellow hustlers' trying to make a name for themselves and keeping their corner intact. This book is filled with shady characters, devious cops, gold-digging women and murderous men who will stop at nothing to take over the drug game.

I recommend this book to readers of street lit. I loved it and anticipate Mr. Freeman's next book.

My daughter and I have has such a great read with this book. It is quite a complex book with lots of openers for great discussions. Now that we are finished Book 1, we cannot wait to find out if Book 2 is available. Does anyone know? I have searched Amazon but there is no reference to it.

Easy to read overview of key concepts in the origination of modern humans. The molecular biology and archeology supporting the out-of-Africa hypothesis versus the multiregional hypothesis are introduced. As well, the origins of human art and creativity and human language are discussed.

The works published by the Swiss psychologist Jean Piaget and his associates during the past forty years constitue the largest repositotry of knowledge about the cognitive development of children that is available anywhere, and Piaget's general theory of intellectual development rivals, in scope amd comprehensiveness, Freud's theory of personality development.

Here is a self-contained general summary of Piaget's theory, written at a relatively nontechnical level. It is suitable for use in a variety of courses in psychology and education - child psychology, child development, educational psychology, learning, psychological systems, general psychology, and others. It will also interest professionals and educated laymen as a timely exposition of ideas that are attracting the attention of increasing numbers of American psychologists.

In order to convey the complexities of the theory to readers who have had no previous contact with it, the author uses a number of unusual pedagogical devices. He first outlines the theory in an introduction that students can reread with increasing comprehension as they study the text. The main part of the book is an elucidation of Piaget's research activities to give the theory meaning. The author frequently reproduces passages from Piaget's clinical observations with Piaget's interpretations deleted, so that the reader can assess his own understanding and better appreciate Piaget's style of inquiry. In an epilogue, the author discusses the educational implications of Piaget's work.

Nobody wants to admit they have rage. How about, do you get pissed off? Do you accidently bump your knee? Do you have thoughts of hurting someone at times? We all do, don't we? If we don't do any thing about it, either it will hide in our bodies or else express it outwardly through road rage, yelling at the kids, at your significant other, etc,etc. More mumbo jumbo --- I don't think so. We carry around anger so deep that we die early, or we work too much or we take it on women in love making---Oops sorry men, cats out the bag.

Women want us to be tender. But we can't. There is to much rage - hidden anger in the way. Rage is usually disguised in many ways or we bully people through a number of different ways. Wars, some accidents and rough love making ( oops there it is again ) are all signs of inner rage. Women don't take it!!! Men need to quit bullying by their brute strength. If men don't want to read it women ought to and not take their crap anymore. There is a great need for anger management. And this book is a beginning and an end. A beginning to discover this dragon and an end to caging this monster and taming him.

Personally, I stuffed it and nearly destroyed myself through drugs,drinking and self mutilation. I was sore afraid and of what my dad did with his rage and was afraid to show it; so, I stuffed it. It can be controlled and this is the start a new goal. Does the need for control sound familiar? From where does it originate?

Excellent book about the major Khmer sites in Thailand. Beautifully illustrated with nice photographs. Includes maps of the temples. More than 350 pages.
