Western Books

Takes you back to times I wish I'd live. Also great action hero's, I love books that can let me forget about the real world we live in, it's fun!!!!

I enjoyed the book very much. I find William Johnstone is one of the best writers there is. He alway get my attention from the first page to the last.

In a story line that grabs your attention and holds it is a hero that exemplifies the tough and proud western man. Action and drama packed with more gun play than seems possible and a touch of humor that makes for an interesting read. A true western.
Beverly J Scott author of Righteous Revenge

I was just as pleased with this book as with others in the last gunfighter series. I congratulate J.A. JOHNSTONE on completing the books left unfinished by William W. Johnstone in his own inimitable style. Zane Grey's heirs have been equally successful in their approach. I only wish the heirs of Ralph Compton (another of my favourite western authors) had been so careful. The Johnstone and Grey families are a shining example for other heirs of great popular authors to follow.

great book-I have most of them. Only improvement that I would like is for the books be numbered in order that they are written so you know what the next book is.. Capt Keith

This is a great book for the non-lawyer. It explains not only IP law, but also the ramifications that these regulations can have to your business as a holder of IP.

A ravenous beastie, technology eats everything it touches. Our daily lives, the way we shop, how we communicate, our work habits, the way we entertain ourselves, and how we exist day by day have all irreversibly transmogrified in the maw of the computer and information age. Now we live like network packets, shooting from node to node with rarely a pause, gathering and transporting information. In degrees of busyness, we've outdone the bees. Such a tsunami of change has to impact the way we govern ourselves. And of course it does. Not even the law escapes technology.

Patents, copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets. Technology has chiseled into each one of these modes of intellectual property protection. But the issues remain complicated and hairy, and this book, with text thick as shag carpet, provides a detailed starting point for exploring the legal implications of technology.

After a thorough introduction to the United States' legal system, some 75 pages worth, the book dives into patent law. Any questions about the nature of patents such as cost, usefulness, novelty, nonobviousness, infringement, or validity receive apt treatment. The book even throws in an overview of the significant Patent Reform Act, not yet passed as of this writing. This Act promises to overhaul the United States patent system, potentially obsoleting some of the information presented. Concerning the patentability of computer programs, the whole drama gets laid out like an adventure tale. Computer programs didn't become patentable overnight. Some even doubted their eligibility for protection.

Trade secrets and their discontents, such as reverse engineering, receive a bulky chapter. These issues affect nearly all technology employees. Use caution, because tricks, shortcuts, or streamlined processes taken from one company to the next could, depending on the circumstances, misappropriate secret information. And when that happens the lawyers come out swinging.

The fuzzy nature of Copyright law receives as much tree bark as patent law. Questions arise on this subject often, especially in regard to the internet. Can I copy an image and put it on my site? Can I legally download digital music? What if a .jpeg doesn't have a copyright notice? The book provides a suitable background to answer these. And, similar to patents, the copyrightablility of computer programs also weaved a loopy route. At first they received overwhelming protection, which disturbed judges, who then abstracted, filtered, and compared protection down to a mere kernal of expression. The entire yarn gets told.

The book ends with chapters on trademarks, domain name issues, tort liability, privacy law, and issues related to contracts, particularly "shrink-wrap" and "click-wrap" licenses. At over 600 pages, the book defies summary. Prepare for a full brain.

Along the way, excerpts from actual court cases, including many Supreme Court decisions, bolster the main text. Not only that, a case study, CoolEdge, runs through the entire length of the book, elucidating murky concepts with comprehensible examples.

This book won't turn readers into lawyers, but it will open up a world of technology law to those with the gusto to brave its dense contents. Some chapters take upwards of two or three hours to complete. But the effort offers great rewards of legal knowledge at a detailed level unobtainable in most survey books or on FAQ websites. Best of all, no legal knowledge is required upon entry. Absolute beginners can comprehend every word in this book. As such it provides a great, but ardous, starting point for technology law.

I bought this book because it was the most recent publication purporting to explain technology law. Although I thought the price was a little high, I sure got more than my money's worth. This book really covers the most important and interesting topics in technology law, and it does so extremely well. Biotech, Internet patents, privacy, obscenity, copyrights, trade secrets, click-wraps, domain names, design protection, strategies for computer programs, the Microsoft Antitrust case-you name it and this book has got it. The book also deals with international matters, such as the WTO, and international strategic considerations. The court case examples are well selected, and the editing is superb. They are not to short to be trivial, but not to long either. I also visited the Web site mentioned on the back cover. It already has a bunch of helpful updates, including the Napster and DVD encryption (DeCSS) debates, among many others. This really is a great book. I recommend it highly.

Call this book Release 2.0! It's a fine upgrade from Prof. Burgunder's prior release.

With the growth in the internet and the advent of business method patents, interest in patent, trademark and copyright issues has surged to new heights. Awareness and integration of these legal aspects into our management of technology is absolutely vital for the future.

I practice law. Specifically, I work on intellectual property matters. I am also building two websites. As a result, I am keen on staying on top of my field. Professor Burgunder's new treatise is an important addition to the literature in this field. He writes in an accessible manner: open to students, interested people and legal practitioners alike. In addition, the arrangement of the book is well thought-out: you don't have to read or study it from the first chapter. Depending on your familiarity with this field, you can select topics and areas to review or you can build a college course around the book.

I was also delighted to see that Dr. Burgunder has been intelligent in the use of a web site to keep the book current.

If you are interested in technology and legal issues, this is a great book to help you! I recommend it heartily.

A splendid piece of work! It is timely and up-to-date with all the most recent & important technological law issues, including the Internet. It contains sophisticated analysis, but in an easy-to-read style. I particularly liked how the Internet is treated in the context of associated technology issues, rather than segregated as a separate unrelated universe. A big plus is the web site connected to the book where Burgunder provides updates about current issues --- such as Napster, Internet linking, and the antitrust case against Microsoft. This will keep the material fresh for years to come! I recommend this book to anyone who wants to learn about technology law. It's a winner!

I love "Good Night Moon" (and can recite it by heart). But "Seven Little Postmen" (and the recently re-issued "Mr. Dog," among others) reveals more about Margaret Wise Brown's genius as a writer than "a quiet old lady whispering 'hush.'"

Originally written in the late 1940's, "Seven Little Postmen" tracks the course of a letter from a little boy in the city to his grandmother in the country through all the stages (way back then) of the mail and all the different types of jolly "postmen" who process the letter from pick-up to rural free delivery back in the days before automation, before "postal employee" became synonymous with "homicidal gun-nut." Ms. Brown's humorous and poetic descriptions of the various jobs (who can remember when speeding trains used to "hook" mailbags from stands beside the tracks so they wouldn't have to stop?) are perfectly matched with Tibor Gergely's (who also illustrated "Scuffy the Tugboat" and "The Taxi that Hurried") colorful and charming illustrations.

Modern-day children will be intrigued by a delightful story with just the right amount of excitement and "mystery" (what's in the letter?) and enchanted by pictures of a more sedate and innocent time in America -- before e-mail, Fed Ex and text messaging took the anticipation and fun out of letters - both writing and receiving. Grown-ups, especially earlier Baby Boomers now becoming grandparents, who read this when they themselves were children, will rediscover a timeless classic.

I want to own all of Margaret Wise Brown's books. Her sing-song writing style just lifts me. I also liked that the boy in the story is so thoughtful toward his little grandmother.

If you're looking for some of the nice older books for your child, be sure to grab this one! It's just so sweet - a little boy has a secret and mails it off to his grandmother. It's a very neat and informative way to explain how the post office works to little ones. We just love this book in our house - it gets read quite a bit. A very nice old fashioned book that has endured the test of time. Highly recommend!

I absolutely loved this book as a child and now read it to my son. I was so glad to be able to find it still in print. It's just one of those books (like The Night Before Christmas) that you remember all of the words, and the illustrations stay with you always. Just a simple little golden book, but so wonderful!

I really love children's books that sweep the reader away on long journeys. Harold and the Purple Crayon is one such book. So, too, are the Phantom Tollbooth and, of course, Tolkien's works. The Seven Little Postmen does this on a more mundane level, but the journey is enjoyable, nonetheless. Here, Margaret Wise Brown and Tibor Gergely lead us across bustling city streets, fly us through sleet and hail, and send us roaring along shining rails, "Through gloom of night / In a mail car filled with electric light". Not only do we meet seven postmen along the way, but also a cast of colorful characters, including Mrs. Potter, "Who was busy making jam". With chickens and tires delivered R.F.D. via a crank-start motor, Mr. Gergely's distinct and detailed illustrations evoke a time now long gone.


I also recommend Scuffy the Tugboat and His Adventures Down the River, likewise illustrated by Tibor Gergely.

A phrase a day closer to learning the language I would love to master.

Ciao.

Good tool for learning expression or phrases that are hard to remember.
Nice use for a calendar!

I buy this calendar every year to brush up on my Italian language skills. I learnt Italian a few years ago and without these calendars my grasp of the language would quickly slip. There are also some interesting cultural tidbits to read as well. I highly recommend these calendars to foreign language enthusiasts.

I look forward to reading/learning the daily phrase in Italian. A great way to learn the language - and start the day right!

Everyday you learn a little something new, including culture tips and holidays. A little everyday builds your vocab. I have not seen anything like this on the market yet. I buy this every year, it is a small price for this gem.

Highly recommend this book for anyone that grew up listening to Peter C like I did and lived and breathed Michigan Rock N Roll ! Also recommend to anyone who loves Michigan rockers like Bob Seger,Ted Nugent etc. Very good reading. Just sorry it took me so long to leave a rating.

This book was a gift to me and after several pages, I dropped everything else and went cover to cover in a day! Peter C. reveals much of the story behind Michigan's great music scene of the late 60's and early 70's. Besides some fascinating tales, Peter also portrays an insightful look at life. If you were there, close, or even just intersted in one of rocks greatest eras, this book is a must read. Well done, Peter C. !

This book is the essential guide to the local rock scene in a time capsule. It is funny, rocking, edgy and rebellous the way rock should be!

Wow...I was a teen coming of age in the late '60s and early '70s in the southeast Michigan area. It was a fertile fertile hot hotbed of local rock and GREAT local radio. WTAC in Flint was an incredibly cutting edge force playing and promoting the best of national and international acts, but especially providing exposure for the likes of a young and up and coming Bob Seger, the MC5, Dick Wagner and the Frost, ? and the Mysterians, the Rationals, Iggy and the Stooges...it goes on and on. My impressionable musically hungry head was taken by Peter C. and later WABX in Detroit. What a scene...you really had to be there. I've been looking and waiting for such excitement, creativity and energy ever since. Peter C. lays it all out, all the excitement, all the innovation, all of the mind expanding, life changing scene was recalled and illuminated from the producer's vantage point. Great work Peter C. of a great and legendary time for local radio and local rock and roll! 5 stars ++.

Local DJ should be required reading for any rock 'n roll fan of any genre. Starting with the Beatles and working his way through the 60's and 70's, Cavanaugh spins a potent web of sex, drugs, and rock 'n roll as he saw and lived it. Based mostly on his experiences as the "local DJ" of powerhouse radio stations WTAC and WWCK, both ranked #1 nationally during his tenure, it's hard to believe that in the tiny town of Flint Michigan, so much happened in rock history.

It took me a while to read this book because I had to read everything twice to make sure I was actually reading what I thought I had just read.

Let me explain.

So here is concert promoter Cavanaugh, years ago, faced with whether or not he should book an unknown Australian band to play in Flint. Peter Cavanaugh is a scary judge of talent. For there, that night, for the first time in America, a band called "AC/DC" took to the stage. The opening act? The MC-5. It doesn't get any more Rock N' Roll than that.

I was born too damn late.

Because with each turn of the page (I couldn't put the book down) bigger, badder, and bolder stories unfold from a magical time which will never be repeated.

Like the night he booked a louder, more raw version of the Beatles. Their name was a bit confusing but Cavanaugh took a chance on them. They were from England so they had to be good, right? Their drummer got drunk and drove a "borrowed" Cadillac right into the hotel pool. Such would be the adventures when you book "The Who" for their first US appearance.

And as you read the stories -- and they get better and better with each passing chapter -- you start to realize that Dick Clark was more like a DJ version of Pat Boone compared to Cavanaugh. American Bandstand? Gimme a break, Cavanaugh was booking The Who and AC/DC for their first US shows!

And what local DJ would be complete without knowledge of radio frequencies, like the time he captured a GM executive on his car phone, taped what was little more than endless profanity, and held the world's largest corporation by their ball bearings threatening jokingly to release the tape?

For southeast Michigan natives, this book will blow your mind. For Rock fans, prepare to read what Rolling Stone magazine wished they could have covered.

To Peter Cavanaugh, rock legend. I hope the movie version comes out soon.

When I was preparing to visit China, I sought for more knowledge about China and their culture. Additionally, I wanted to know what things I should look when shopping. Americans buy so many things that say "Made in China", I did not want to bring home one of these items. This book "Look What Came from China!" by Miles Harvey was very helpful. There was just enough information to lead me to further investigate items for which I was interested. I have read this book several times to my grandchildren. They like to play a game with each other trying to see who can name the most things that came from China.

This nonfiction book gives many interesting facts about things that come from or were invented in China. The book is well organized because there is a table of contents and the book is divided into sections. Along with a glossary, a resource page is also included, which lists other books and websites about China. The book is very educational, and the information presented is clear and direct. The photographs help capture the essence of China's great inventions. The most exciting thing included in the book is the Mandarin language, the official language of China, for some English words. The calligraphy is given first, and then a pronounciation key is provided. The one and only flaw in the book is the illustrations of ancient Chinese people making paper from pulp. The illustrations are vague, which makes it hard to understand the process it took to make paper. This is a great resource to have in any classroom library. Teachers can use this book to introduce a lesson about China. If students are doing research about China, they can use the book to learn valuable information.

Mr.Harvey's series on the different aspects of life in other parts of the world is an excellent way to introduce grades 2 through 5 many other cultures! This is very well organized information! I highly recommend this book and others in the series.

If your preschooler likes pictures, and you as the parent like educating, then this is a fun, educational book! I love to use it to teach my chinese daughter about her birth country!

As a teacher of history, one of the most important lessons I hope to convey to students is why the study of history is of such importance. One reason is, the study of history helps us to comprehend why we are the way we are. In other words, we must look to the past to understand why we eat what we eat, wear what we wear, and view the world as we do. This book admirably supports, with clear, concise prose and colorful illustrations, why the China's history is everyones' history. It is also great fun to read!

I met Mr. Riddle when he was a guest speaker at a CT Authors and Publishers meeting. His book, based on a true story of his relatives both European descendant and Native American, is just the kind of book I can sink my teeth into--having read many of the Gear books, Amanda Cockrell, and Linda Lay Schuler. I respect the research that goes into these sagas and Mr. Riddle is no slacker there--in fact his writing group had to hold him back on some of the more banal details. I hope some day I'll be able to join him in this genre, as the research seems daunting, but the research I did for "Forever Retro Blues," being in part my own history, did not seem so daunting. I hope he will write again.

It's one thing to write a review of Lost River, I'd rather write a lament. To be brief, Lost River is a book all peoples should read. Within its words are the tears Riddle feels for his own native heritage. Well done, Pax. You left me embarrased by the mistakes of my ancestors and the sorrows of yours.

This was a great book. I could not put it down. This historical novel kept me spell bound from beginning to end. Very good, Paxton.

All those history classes I took in college have earned me zip in the real world, but it has made me one picky reader when it comes to historic novels. Very few pass the test. Mister Riddle's novel does. Better, this was the story behind the facts I read in school. Well done!

Wow, I could really see this story on the screen. It would make a great movie or mini-series. The author pulls you into Indian life and Oregon in the 1870s. Sometimes it's so real it makes you shiver. Lots of great action scenes and cool Indian words and ceremonies. Great job!

A friend of mine recommended this book to be, but when I first saw the title of the book I wasn't sure what it was going to
be about. It seemed a bit intimidating. However, the book is very easy to read, has incredible insights and having read it, I now can certainly understand why the book was named a late addition candidate to "ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS of 2002" and a CEO "RECOMMENDED READ" by CEO refresher, an independent editorial board recognized by the Harvard Business School and
the Wall Street Journal. I think it is one of the best books on business I've ever read.

I'm on my second reading of this book and as I go through it I'm revising my business unit's plans for the coming fiscal year. As Bloxham points out, change is a difficult process, but worth it, so I'm sure I'll be referring to this book for years to come.

When practitioners, who have actually rolled up their sleeves and implemented, write a book, it is usually a good read. In Eleanor Bloxham's case, this is a great read.

There is so much confusion about what operational and strategic levers an organization should push or pull to create rather than destroy shareholder wealth. Most articles slip into gross platitudes and sloganeering and sidestep the "how to." Bloxham's book dives in but explains adnmittedly complex interelationships in a way you can understand them. She does a fine job integrating the component tools, like the balanced scorecard and activity based costing, into economic value management.

Some day boards of directors may find this to be the standard book for assisting their shareholders make, not lose, money.

This book is a winner! It emphasizes stewardship of resources, and explains in detail with excellent examples, how to implement a new way of thinking about responsibility. The book is an enjoyable read and packed with suggestions for action.

Corporate senior executives are subjected to pressure for performance from many constituents - shareholders, customers, employees, governmental and regulatory authorities, rating agencies, board members, and securities analysts. And, since these are by definition high achieving individuals, some of the greatest pressure is from within. The existence of many constituents, many with conflicting objectives, often makes it very difficult for CEO's, CFO's and board members to focus on key performance goals and metrics. Over the course of my 34 year career as a corporate banker, I've seen many confused executives, pressured for EPS growth, revenue growth, ROE, but not necessarily understanding the long run impact of any or all of these performance metrics.

Ms. Bloxham has produced a superb book that takes a "holistic" view of the process of identifying performance criteria for senior executives, and not just for those in the private sector. She and I share common views about the benefits of economic value added metrics, but she has gone well beyond this to address many of the conflicts for performance faced by executives. She provides an excellent framework for establishing a set of logical goals and performance metrics for managing complex businesses and non-profit organizations.

If you're puzzled by the review from Chicago, so am I. The author of this text is recognized around the world as an authority on Maximus; the reviewer won't even say his name. As far as Gregory Palamas goes, Maximus lived hundreds of years before Gregory. Why would there be references in the endnotes to a theologian unknown to Maximus? The notes reference the sources and the theological influences that actually are found in the text (Origen, Pseudo-Dionysius, the Cappadocians), not theologians that Maximus knew nothing about. Let's not fault the author for being interested in Maximus' theology! As far as spelling goes, Maximus is the usual rendering in English and it doesn't pretend to be a transliteration of the Greek. I suppose next we're going to get upset that Jesus is a latinized spelling of Iesous...but then isn't Iesous a pretty Hellenized version of Yeshua? But the whole absurdity of the thing is clear when he suggests ignoring the Introduction, which is written by Jaroslav Pelikan--a marvellous man who now, by the way, is a member of the Orthodox Church! The text has no apologies to make. Does someone else?

The writings of St. Maximus the Confessor are mandatory for all Chrisitians. St Maximus was a monk near 500-600 AD. He lived at a time when there was argument whether Christ possessed soley a divine nature or if he had dual natures (human and divine). A point that seems very vague to many in the modren world. But St Maximus believed so adamantly in the dual nature that he had his right hand cut off as well as his tongue and left to die. The legacy of writings left behind shed very deep insight on topics like love and theology.
In my own opinion you can not go wrong with St Maximus he was an austere monk, that devoted his life to preserving the true meaning of Christianity. He diligently studied the writings of older monks closer to the time of Christ in which we get a clearer view of what it means to really be Christian.

St. Maximus the Confessor lived during the time when the eastern half of the One Holy Apostolic Catholic Church was battling a heresy called the Monothelite controversy dealing between the unity or duality of will in relation to nature. Today many think the issue was due to cultural language limitations between Greek & Arabic, political problems within the Byzantine empire, & the rapid spread of Islam. Either way St. Maximus was the champion of Orthodoxy defending the view that Jesus was fully God & fully human in his incarnation, therefore he had 2 natures, & each nature had a will. Jesus expressed these ideas when he said "Not my will be done, but thy will be done" verses "I am in the Father." The 1st section of the book deals with St. Maximus's trial before the Byzantine Emperor where many false witness accused the Saint of being against the Emperor. St. Maximus quickly & rightly goes to the source of the matter & asks for proof, of course there is none, its all hear-say (heresy). For historical note: St. Maximus was finally accused, had his tongue & one of his hands cut off, & sent into exile where he shortly died. The masterpiece of this book is the 100 Chapters of Love, where St. Maximus takes several scriptures & many writings from the Church Fathers, & explains in great detail what Love is. The 1st time I read this book, I tried to read it as a whole book, this was a mistake. The 2nd time I read it, I read a verse at a time. St. Maximus writes with such tight exact meaning, that each word is overwhelming. Therefore for maximum (Maximus) enjoyment, read this section like a poem & then pray or reflex on each line. Another section is a great commentary on the Lord's Prayer: "Our Father". Each verse gets a few paragraphs of detail. This book is not for the soft hearted or for the easy to read crowd, but for people that enjoy deep books.

I am an Orthodox Christian, and I have not only read this book, but as a Maximus scholar, I have lived with it for 15 years, since it first came out in 1985. My original copy is totally dogeared, held together with tape and glue and the grace of a book lovingly valued as precious far beyond its price. Every page is full of notes upon notes in various colors. As it gradually falls apart through much use, I am considering learning the art of bookbinding, so I can preserve it and keep on using it. I am very grateful for Paulist Press for producing this volume, and to George Berthold for the effort and energy (as only one who has tried to translate Maximus' subtle and sophisticated Greek knows just how much effort and energy) it took to translate these texts of the Confessor's. I believe St. Maximus' genius and accomplishments deserve to be honored for what they are and not to be bracketed by disputes and criticisms that, whatever their merit, have no real point in the present setting. Yes, there are other good translations of some of these texts. Yes, the critical apparatus may not be of the highest order. Yes, the theological perspective in the Introduction may not rise to the level or be equal to the content of the Maximian texts. But what introduction could?--and that was not the book's primary purpose. As a basic introduction to the Maximian corpus, the Paulist Press volume on St. Maximus, for all its supposed faults, is still the best single volume to give to someone new to St. Maximus. St. Maximus' greatness lies in the fact that he was not only a brilliant theologian, but an equally accomplished philosopher, as well as a great ascetic and spiritual master of the Eastern Orthodox monastic and hesychastic tradition. He can put more into a single sentence or paragraph than most philosophers or theologians put into whole chapters, or even books. That is why a volume like this one can be read and reread for years and years, always giving one a new perspective or an astonishing view of depths previously unknown or unrealized.

St Maximus the Confessor stands tall in the Eastern tradition as one of the greatest theologians and mystics. Somewhat overlooked by Catholicism and Protestantism, Maximus's thought is deeply profound and contains great spiritual beauty and insight into the mysteries of Christianity.

Maximus, like other Eastern Christian fathers, focuses on the apophatic or negative approach to God. In the included works which include the 'Centuries on Love' and the 'Centuries on Knowledge' Maximus stresses the need for leaving behind the earthly for the spiritual realities beyond, which are ineffable yet infinitely beautiful. Some of the finest though of Maximus occurs in his Centuries on Love, which focus on the need for true love of self and neighbour without selfishness, without which we cannot attain salvation.

St Maximus had a key influence on later theologians such as Gregory Palamas, and is also important to the great Western Carolingan philosopher-theologian Eriugena.

I bought this as a gift for a friend who dreams of moving to Montana. Since I purchased it well before Christmas, I took the time to go through it myself. It is such an impressive piece, I might move to Montana.

Great pointers on wonderful scenery and places to visit. Buy this book on Montana first if you are traveling there!

This is one of the finest photographic books ever irregardless of it being a state book. The compositions are fantastic and varied.

The book is destined to become a classic and Mr. Vasapolli a place amongst the finest photographers ever!

I love Montana and I own almost every book on Montana. This one in particular is destined to be a classic amongst photographic essays. The compositions are varied in itself and each a fantastic journey of Montana cities and wildernesses. Not a weak one in the whole lot- except the ugly bighorn sheep shedding it's winter coat- the sheep is ugly, but the surroundings are still beautiful.

It's a book bound for several editions and Mr. Vasapolli a place along side the photographic greats of all time.

Because I'm the photographer!

The has recently won the prestigious SAPPI Gold Medal Award as Best Book in North America!

Hope you think so too!

Thanks
