Beauty Books

This book and others in the series have added a new dimension, involving the reader with reproductions of maps and documents from the era. I have been giving the to my dad a gifts and will be looking for the next one to come out.

This is far more than a book. It is a curriculum and a fun experience. I loved it and I have not even listened to the CD yet. The graphics are beautiful, the text wonderful as well as accurate and interesting. The very best part is the inclusion of some 60 reproductions of documents associated with the war. Operations orders, leaflets, diaries, paper money. and more--much more. Of course most people know about the critical weather decision on June 5th, but I certainly had never seen the weather map for the day and with the book you can not only see it (the weaher map), but also hold (a reproduction of it), but study it and transport yourself back to the briefing room. The overall reproduction quality of the included items is good or better. I wrote a World War II book with the subtitle "history in your hands," but my hat is off to Julian Thompson because he trumped our effort.

I am so happy I happened across this book. I hit 30 recently and overnight my skin seemed to change. I've wanted to do more for my skin for 5 years now but have always felt overwhelmed by all the products out there. I also never had a dermatologist that offered up suggestions on how to go about minimizing the effects of aging. This book does that. Dr. Gross provides a helpful, easy to read, and easy to understand approach to taking control of your skin destiny. He doesn't bore you with medical jargon but gives you just enough so that you have a basic understanding of what role different hormones and chemicals play on your skin. He starts out with a helpful test to group you into one of four skin levels. Based on what level you are in, he recommends a skin care regimen. Although he has his own line of pricey skin care products, he does not push it on the reader which makes the book that much more credible and respectable. After oohing and aahing over the before and after color photos, I incorporated some of his advice and have had some really great results (using Renova, twice daily washing and regular exfoliation). Based on the immediate improvements I just purchased some of his skincare products (it is too early to comment on them.)

This book has done such an excellent job of explaining what my skin type and age group needs and how and where to get it. I typed up a list of my skin concerns and what products and lasers I should ask my dermatologist about. I feel much more confident that I will get the skin I want now that I know what to ask for.
A worthwhile read.

As a New Yorker, I have the privilege of both reading this book and being treated by Dr. Gross, so I can confirm that his methods and suggestions really work.

This is the book to buy before going to the dermatologist or plastic surgeon's office because it explains all your choices (peels, lasers, botox, etc.) and educates about what to look for in a safe, effective anti-aging program.

The book begins with the "Skin Lifecycle Quiz," which establishes the basis for customizing the approach to maintaining your skin. In my opinion, this is the key to choosing the right treatment options for improving your skin. Without it, it's too easy to just buy a line of treatment products at the department store and hope they work (we've all been there!), or possibly opt for inappropriate surgery or unecessary processes.

Dr. Gross's approach is conservative, and he emphasizes protection (sunscreen!!!) and using proven choices (active ingredients and technologies) to get the results that you want.

The biggest misconception I've encountered in recommending this book to friends is that they all want to wait until they're over 40 to start dealing with their skin. This is a big mistake - it's important to maintain your skin ASAP, whether you're in your 20's, 30's or more. Dr. Gross emphasizes preventive care, and I agree.

I am not the most beautiful person in the world, and as a teenager, I am very self-conscious about my body. This book helped me to really see my inner beauty. It helped me see past the exterior and helped me to see how beautiful I really was. There were pages for me to write and reflect on, and pages that helped me become more aware about how I can take care of my body without losing my beauty inside and out. It is a wonderful book from a wonderful company that stresses inner as well as outer beauty. Their motto says it best: "Beauty is Inside."

This book helps me so much in many ways. It helps me get to know myself and my own feelings. It tells me about my dreams, health, goals, and beauty. It also tells me how I can improve on them and my life. There are many pages in the book for you to write your own answers to some of the questions, or write down ideas and goals. It helps you identify what your main focuss in life is and what it should be. I love this book so much. I borrowed this book from a friend and want to own it so bad. It is like my own personal journal or diary of my thoughts and feelings.

I had over 250 books on health, nutrition, and fitness. I threw them all out except two, this and "What Would Jesus Eat?" THis book provides great advice and is just wonderful to read and reference. I love it! Dr. Aesoph has a great writing style and the book is very well structured. With the other book I mentioned, I used this information to lose 200 pounds and vitalize my health.
I highly recommend this to anyone!

Tammy has assembled an amazing collection of advice on beauty, health, clothing, manners...and soul issues. She knows that a woman's beauty isn't just the outside but what glows from the inner life. For those of us who didn't grow up very savvy about cosmetics and beauty treatments, she makes that part of a woman's life more easily understood (so that's the style glasses that goes with my face!). This would be a great book to buy and take to the beauty shop to leave for other patrons to browse. It's a thousand notches above the celebrity magazines usually found in such places.

Book by M. J. Saffon. Detailed exercises given, with lots
of photos. Easy to find the exact exercise you want to deal
with whatever 'problem' area you want to work on. Book also includes information on how to cleanse your skin & how to take care of it. Also gives instructions for an "Instant Hollywood Face Lift" that uses clear tape.

This book is fabulous. It has everything on fashion in the 1920s. My daughter was doing a project on 1920s fashion and she found this book very helpful.

This book was so wonderful,and helpful. Because of this book I was accepted in to a Fashion Designing colleg!I recommend you get it!

I would highly recommend this book to anyone who is trying to improve their marriage (or any other close, personal relationship) no matter how good or bad the relationship is at the time.

The book is short, easy to read, and positive. It contains 30 exercises that can each be completed in half an hour or less. These powerful and effective exercises are designed to be done individually and work even if your spouse does not do them at all.

The book showed me how to focus on practical ways that I could take control of a situation that felt completely out of control by focusing on my attitudes, behaviors, and thoughts. Even though I thought I had done everything I could do the exercises helped me make some personal breakthroughs that allowed me to make real improvements in our marriage by only changing my own approach to it. Even though I was already familiar with most of the principals in the book and had done some of the exercises before as part of other self improvement programs, I found that doing them again in the context of the marriage I was in was invaluable.

I experienced real improvement after just the first two days. This book gave me more than hope that there was a solution out there, it gave me real tools to move into a better marriage.

If you only read one book on how to save your marriage, I would recommend this one.
