Insightful, inspiring, enlightening, encouraging
As a 47-year-old woman with three chrildren who just completed the divorce process (by choice), I was delighted to find and encouraged by "Our Turn" ...especially the aspects of growing up and discovering (or rediscovering) just what strengths and abilitities lie deep inside us. Sharing the stories of the different women, their challenges, triumphs, bumps and bruises was like looking into different mirrors and finding myself in, not all, but many of them. The book is well organized and lends itself easily to referring back to pertinent sections for rereading. The women's stories were incredible! I applaud their candor & willingness to share their pain, anger, joy, determination, and their recovery. I read the introduction in the book store and was immediately hooked. I purchased the book to take on my first solo vacation...to Cancun. I met two divorced women while climbing the pyramid at Chichen Itza. One chose divorce, the other did not. I was amazed how much their stories were like the women in "Our Turn". I encouraged them to buy the book and read it. Probably the best part was that, by the time I finished the book, I didn't feel quite so crazy or isolated. I knew I would be OK. I had become part of a sisterhood of very strong and resilient women. The authors have done a tremendous service. Their work has been invaluable to me.

A Fascinating look at America's Polio experience.
This book contains a series of interviews with individuals who have either been involved in the treatment, cure, or suffering of polio. The accounts give captivating first hand insight into the horror of contracting polio, the experience of the disease progressing, the Iron Lung experience, and the therapies available at that time. Interviews with those who worked with Dr Salk, as well as his wife, are included as well.

The numerous black and white photographs paint a vivid image of the experience.

While this book is not intended to be a complete history of polio, it is an excellent book for those who wish to know how the polio epidemics felt, as well as the pride in the conquest of polio through the March of Dimes.

This book would be a good addition for a high school or junior high school library as well.

A great Web guide!!
This is an excellent guide to the web. Just the sort of book we've all been waiting for! Easy to understand and highly informative. It tells you in straightforward terms how the world wide web developed from the early Internet days, how it works and you can use it in many different ways. For example, it points you towards very useful web sites on health, education and business.

I passed my copy onto my young nephew. He was fascinated by it and has now begun to use the web himself to help him with his studies and find out lots of info about his favourite sports!

Finally... a fun way to teach respect for authority!
Please, Wonderful Mommy is the story of two children who love their mother but aren't terribly good at showing her. In fact, they're rather terrible! They demand instead of ask, they expect to be catered to, and they never remember to say thank you. It isn't because they don't want to be kind... somewhere they simply forgot to be respectful of their mother and came to expect the way she did things for them every day. Enter their uncle, who clearly notices their lack of respect at dinner one night. As he insists, the kids giggle as they not only say, "Please Mommy," but now say, "Please WONDERFUL Mommy!" My children (ages three and five) giggled along, and we now often smile as we remember to be polite and appreciate other people, even inside our family. In fact, I read it to a group of teenagers, and their parents have been quite happy with the response! Please Wonderful Mommy is a delightful (and slightly subtle) way to remind your children of two of the values you want them to hold close to their hearts... respect for others, and gratitude. I hope you enjoy it as much as we have!

"Absolutely" Awesome
Pojo's first book, "Total Dragon Ball Z" was simply the best informational DBZ Book on the market ..... until now!

Their first book came out in 2000. Three years later they have followed it up with another great informational book. This book has detailed bios for over 500 characters that appear in DB, DBZ and Dragon Ball Gt! About 50 pages of this book are the bios, and most of the characters have good images.

Other cool stuff includes:

Complete Dragon Ball GT Episode Guide, with summaries of all the GT episodes.

Complete DB Movie Guide, with summaries of all the DB/Z/GT movies.

They also complete the DBZ episode guide that they started in their first book. The first book stopped at like episode 125. This one picks up from their, and has summaries of all the episodes through the end of Dragon Ball Z.

There's also a cool Dragon Ball Z Toy Collectors Guide ... showing cool stuff from the U.S. and Japan.

The book has a lot more stuff too. If you are a DBZ fan, I can't think of a better book for the price!!!

Prime Ski Racing
I highly recommend this book to young ski racers and their parents. My 13 year old first year J3 son read PRIME SKI RACING this winter and it seemed made a significant difference in his both his skiing, his race results, and his ability to enjoy the ski racing season right to the very end. Granted, he also has great coaches. I feel the book also helped him approach the manner in which he prepared for his races in a more oragnized and methodical manner. Apparently, though, PRIME SKI RACING is not just for young racers, as Dr. Taylor has had success even with the big boys (and girls) at the World Cup level.

Furthermore PRIME SKI RACING is logical and easy to read. Some of Dr. Taylor's ideas made such good sense that I found myself saying, "Gee, I could have thought of that." It was also obvious that just about everything that Dr. Taylor wrote about the mental approach to ski racing, could also be applied to not just other sports, but to just about any other endeavor in life. I gather Dr. Taylor has written similar books about the mental approach to business and child rearing. I am going to check them out.
