2.		Reflections on the Revolution in France (Oxford World's Classics) from Oxford University Press, USA Price: $8.76 Customer Review: This book is excellent because it is exactly what I needed, that is an account of Edmund Burkes thinking, what it is he contributed to our understanding of government.

3.		A Philosophical Enquiry into the Origin of our Ideas of the Sublime and Beautiful from Dover Publications Price: $9.95 Customer Review: Burke's Enquiry is a surprising and remarkable little work. If you expect the Burke who fits your stereotype of the conservative Tory politician, that is not what you will find here at all--but rather a clear and insightful discussion of our feelings and emotions of awe and beauty in nature and in... more info	Customer Rating: 5.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information Buy from: United Kingdom

4.		Precision Heart Rate Training from Human Kinetics Publishers Price: $13.57 Customer Review: The book is as much a collection of articles as it is a book, and there were a couple of inconsistencies that would have been caught by one more editorial pass. That said...the book very much informed/improved my running training, and for that reason alone, it's worth the purchase price.

5.		The Portable Edmund Burke (The Viking Portable Library) from Penguin (Non-Classics) Price: $12.24 Customer Review: "The Portable Edmund Burke" is useful in supplying a number of pieces not otherwise easily obtainable. It, like most books in the Viking Portable Library series, is missing the notes and especially the index that many people would have found useful. To make room for the 47 selections, several have... more info	Customer Rating: 3.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information Buy from: United Kingdom

6.		High-Tech Cycling from Human Kinetics Publishers Price: $15.61 Customer Review: This is a very scientific publication which can escape the interest and desire of those not serious about cycling. For those that want the edge for performance and racing knowledge, this book is for you. It is full of data that compares theories and applied sciences to biking. At times this... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information Buy from: United Kingdom

7.		Struggle and Survival in the Modern Middle East from University of California Press Price: $23.35 Customer Review: A very good book, but strictly for the serious student of the Middle East because the author utilizes too much historic and political background in the sketches. The references within each profile are difficult to understand and to appreiate by the casual reader.	Customer Rating: 5.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information Buy from: United Kingdom

8.		A Philosophical Enquiry into the Origins of the Sublime and Beauitful: And Other Pre-Revolutionary Writings (Penguin Classics) from Penguin Classics Price: $12.00 Customer Review: This is a good book by the articulate (very quotable) and profound philosopher-legislator Edmund Burke, who served in the English Parliament around the time of the American Revolution. Burke (1729-97) also authored the famous and controversial (at least at the time) work, "Reflections on the... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information Buy from: United Kingdom

9.		Reflections on the Revolution in France: A Critical Edition from Stanford University Press Price: $26.95 Customer Review: To begin with: this book is a pamphlet, not (as I had expected) a treatise. It is a call to action about a specific event, not a political programme. Readers expecting a statement of the conservative creed may be disappointed. Hence the 4, not 5 stars. As a historical document, however, the... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information Buy from: United Kingdom

10.		Reflections on the Revolution in France (Dover Value Editions) from Dover Publications Price: $6.95 Customer Review: I cannot believe that noone has reviewed this.Burke wrote this incredibly farsighted dissection of the French Revolution at a point when most English opinion leaders were supportive of that great orgy of sadistic bloodletting. He wrote this in 1790 as a reply to a clergyman who was of course a big... more info	Customer Rating: 5.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information Buy from: United Kingdom
