Spencer Books

Anybody who wants to know more or less in detail about Husserl's phenomenology is invited to look at this book which is a great exposition of his doctrine. In it, we also can find one of the most important doctrines in his system: the doctrine of states of affairs as reference of assertive sentences, and the reference basis as being the situation of affairs. According to the correspondence between the assertive sentence to the states of affairs and situation of affairs that the truth can be determined.

A superbly organized compendium of tips and techniques, "Family History In The Wars" is confidently recommended for inclusion into personal, professional, and academic library Genealogical Studies and Military Studies reference collections.

"Nutshells" are not just for slackers who blew off the semester and need to cram at the last minute. I've been consistently impressed with the quality of West's Nutshell series. They're excellent study aids for summary, clarification, and getting the key points and big picture. This one is written by two prominent scholars in the field, the senior of whom (Harry Krause at Illinois) is also the lead editor on one of the major casebooks (Krause, Elrod, Garrison, Oldham, Family Law: Cases, Comments, and Questions). Thus this little book is epecially valuable if your class is using that casebook.

This nutshell provides an excellent tour through all the major areas and issues of family law. There's a nice balance among history, leading cases, and commentary on how the law is evolving. It's short, concise, and, as the authors are not afraid to be droll now and then, a breezy, interesting, and pleasant read.

This text is essential for any student trying to grasp the debate surrounding the Constitution. Though trudging through the original documents is advisable, the side-by-side modern version makes comprehending the often difficult language used headache-free and therefore the concepts clear and easy to grasp. For those of you familiar with Shakespeare texts featuring side-by-side modern translations, the format is very much similar, although in my experience the translations here are far more accurate. The guide questions at the end of each chapter are well-thought out and highlight the important issues of each essay. It's interesting to see that the same debate regarding federalism is alive and well today.

If you're a college student majoring in political-science, a high school student in a government class, a teacher or professor, or just somebody trying to gain new insight into the formation of our government, you cannot go wrong with this text. I applaud Genevieve Gilbert-Rolfe for undertaking the daunting task of translating, and especially for succeeding at it.

Sue tried to move on with her son after the terrible tragedy that took her hubby's life. She settled in and worked, and hoped that
someday she'd "move on" Softly, every so carefully, Travis O'Connor stepped into her door, and then reached for her heart.
(keep box of tissues handy) Great stuff!

Florida's Historic Forts, Camps and Battlefields: A Pictorial Encyclopedia is an impressively presented A to Z reference of notable historic sites in Florida from Fort T. B. Adams to Zephyrhills Army Airfield. Summaries of famous Florida historical events, such as the wars with the Seminole Indians, help put various sites in full context. Black-and-white illustrations and a handful of color photographs round out this detailed and highly readable resource. Florida's Historic Forts, Camps and Battlefields is intended as a reference first and foremost; while travelers and vacationers will learn about great places to see when visiting Florida, the text's focus is on the history of the sites and not how to get there.

This is an exquisitely beautiful book. It is a very well written and fascinating view into the histories of India, China, and Japan through the lens of people's love of colors, fabrics, and beautiful clothing. It will be a treasure for museums, curious minds, and coffee tables alike.

This is a great little book to take along on family outings. It's not comprehensive, but it was not meant to be; it does identify the most common plants that one is likely to run across and be curious about. The illustrations make the plants readily identifiable, along with regional distributions and common names. Small, easy to carry along, inexpensive enough take some rough handling by children. This small book could be the impetus for younger members of the family to find a new interest, but is also thorough enough to make walks in the woods enjoyable for the adults. I found it to be well worth the price.
