2.Rolex Wristwatches: An Unauthorized History (Schiffer Book for Collectors)Rolex Wristwatches: An Unauthorized History (Schiffer Book for Collectors)
from Schiffer Publishing
Price: $78.75

Customer Review:
Similar to Rolex watches on which this book focuses, it's heavy, quite large, and overpriced. Again similar to Rolex watches, it does the job fairly well. Generally good to excellent photography traces the evolution of Wilsdorf's watches from "unknown," to a famous name. Furthermore, Wilsdorf... more info

from The Mathematical Association of America
Price: $38.95

Customer Review:
Don't be fooled by the brevity or put off by the high price of this book - it's worth its weight in gold. If you have a university level math degree and you want to do proofs again, this book is for you.

The book was good but the binding gave out almost right away. I have a nice collection but this book looks bad because the pages are all falling out.

Customer Review:
First, I have to commend Mr. Lips for authoring a great book for those of us interested in the true history of how the gold standard was eventually eliminated as a stabilizing limiter for the money supply throughout the world.

Each of them, thru ways subtle and overt, led their nations to the point where the Cold War could end, and a new future could begin.
