If you are bored with the simple problems you usually find in books on recreational mathematics, you will be very pleased with the 100 mathematical teasers on this book. Here an example (teaser 32):
"I am bored, give me something to do", said Joe "And what's the time anyway?".
Ben glanced at his watch and did some quick figuring. "When I checked my watch this morning" he replied, "the hour hand was exactly where the minute hand is now, and the minute hand was one division before where the hour hand is now."
"You mean minute division?" Joe asked.
"That's right", Ben told him. "And both hands are exactly at minute divisions now."
What was the time?
Try this mathematical puzzle only if you like challenges, and if you liked this one, you will definitively love this book.

This `charming' series sparkles with photographs that stress the beauty of the finest - but not necessarily the costliest - small hotels across Europe (by country). Most hotels get a full page with a clear, revealing photograph, one or two beautifully written descriptive paragraphs and a shaded section with contact info, prices, etc. (Library Journal)

I first came across the '92 version of this book and have had many years of excellent use out of it. The updated 97 version was found by accident in a local book store.
The new version has been updated somewhat though sadly with the omission of an interesting Abbey in Wales. It does however still retain a captivating selection of unusual Hotels to stay in.
What seperates this book from crowd for me is the simple yet accurate descriptions of the Hotels. I have given it to many a visiting friend to help enhance their journey across this green and pleasant land.
Highly recommended.

George Hunter is one of the lights of the Church in this country. He is a scholar, an evangelist, with a kind and gracious spirit. His teaching, speaking and writing have led us closer into life-changing relationships with Christ and more generously into sharing news of that faith with others.
Now he gives us guidance for living out our evangelistic faith in other areas of our lives, including our political perceptions and decisions. He is, as always, clear, engaging, compelling. This is a book to think through, to talk over with friends - read it! Talk about it! See what happens!

In this, the third volume in the Anita Blake, vampire hunter, series of books, the author does not disappoint the reader. Anita, our intrepid vampire hunter, is once again called upon by the St. Louis police to assist with some unusual murders. It appears that someone or something is killing humans in the city, and it appears that it may be a renegade pack of vampires that is doing so, hell bent on challenging the power of Jean Claude, the vampire that reigns supreme as Master of the City.
Moreover, Anita is footloose and fancy free, notwithstanding her attraction to the Master of the City, when she meets Richard Zeeman, a hunky junior high school science teacher. The only thing is that Richard has a secret that may impact on how Anita may feel about him. Their budding romance, however, is never the focal point of the story. Rather, it is a sustaining and tantalizing backdrop to the adventures of Anita, as our feisty, tough talking heroine tries to save the city of St. Louis from a fate worse than death.
Once again, the author holds the readers' interest with her richly detailed alternate universe, where vampires, werewolves, zombies, and other monsters are part of the landscape and live side by side with humans in a somewhat uneasy alliance. The plot is fully fleshed, as are most of the characters, and the dialogue is crisp and snappy. This is a fun, fast-paced series of books, and I look forward to reading each and every one!

Any Coloradan, and especially any Boulderite, who climbs will find this book interesting. It is intended for a specific audience, and if you fit that audience, the book delivers and I highly recommend it; if you don't climb, or haven't heard of Layton Kor, or don't live in Colorado, then this book would be painfully boring. The book also gave me ideas of where to climb outside of the Boulder area, though there is a heavy emphasis on both Eldorado and Boulder canyons. You can skip around through the various sections pretty easily.

This is a brief memoir by a girl who knew Sylvia Plath at Smith College. It describes some events that have been recounted in the numerous biographies which quote from this book. These events include the cucumber sandwich gluttony at Mrs. Prouty's, the trip to Cambridge to attend Harvard summer school, the affair with the biology professor met on the steps of the Widener Library, and the resulting hemorrhage.

Sure, this was written when nuclear war with the USSR was promoted our greatest concern and reason for funding the warmakers. But now that we go through the latest reason for being in Iraq without yet getting the truth, we need to contemplate carefully this important document by the National Conference of Catholic Bishops of a generation ago. Nowadays they are too afraid of bankruptcy for the perversion of a few clergy to speak out as prophetically as we need right now today.
This document will bring you to the correct conclusion that no Catholic can go fight in Iraq, etc. There is no just reason for going to war and there is no just conduct of the war. Indiscriminate warfare in particular is condemned, yet the well respected British medical journal the Lancet, after a careful and dangerous comprehensive survey in the field estimates we have killed up to a million Iraqis. Just look at our genocide of Fallujah and targetting innocent civilians, mothers and children, attempting to flee our horror and our terrorizing their people.
Please get and study this book, now under a dollar, plus shipping. It reveals the theological and moral truths which absolutely condemn our current very profitable warmongering.
Then get anything by the Reverend Father John Dear, SJ, who is not afraid to speak theological truth to wordly powers and dominations.
