The Art of War: Sun Zi's Military Methods (Translations from the Asian Classics)
from Columbia University Press
Price: $9.38

Customer Review:

I have been wanting to read Sun Tszu's treatise for a long time but had never gotten around to it.
It consists of short paragraphs of his writings and many comentaries and arguments regarding them.
It isn't something you can read in one go. At times it gets tedious reading the... more info

The Black Swan: The Impact of the Highly Improbable
from Random House

Customer Review:

I have downloaded many of his Youtube videos and read his book twice. The videos are good not great, however the book can become boring due to it being turgid. The basic idea is true but the meandering train of thought causes the rereading of many chapters and then you still may not quite get the... more info

Customer Review:

I LOVED this book!!!! I have read almost every James Patterson published fiction story that he has authored or co-authored. This was the first time I have purchased a book of his that was written from a different angle. The details were incredible, and the transition and connection between... more info

Guns, Germs, and Steel: The Fates of Human Societies
from W.W. Norton & Co.
Price: $15.25

Customer Review:

What can I say about this book that has not been written already? It seams the author has a view then went out to write a book that proves this view. Interesting ideas but there is not one chapter that would prove his theory wrong. I find that odd that everything points to him being right.

In my 34 years of reading just about every book I could ever get my hands on and make time to read, this is the ONE BOOK I have repeatedly sung the praises of and recommend to people constantly.

Chariots of the Gods
from Berkley Trade
Price: $8.61

Customer Review:

All I can say is the views are breath taking but the movie was made in the mid 1970's and I wonder if the author ever read Thor Heyerdahl's "Aku Aku" whereupon 12 men using ropes & two logs managed to raise a 25-30 ton statue onto a pedastal about 4-5' high.I personaaly don't like the fact he... more info

Collapse: How Societies Choose to Fail or Succeed
from Penguin (Non-Classics)
Price: $7.50

Customer Review:

Esta es una obra demasiado extensa y repetitiva que pudiera resumirese en una cuarta parte de su contenido. Basicamente el autor nos muestra sociedades desparecidas (Mayas, Anazasi, Isla de Pascua, Groenlandia y otras) para ilustarnos como el abuso en el uso de los recursos naturales llevó a... more info

The War That Killed Achilles: The True Story of Homer's Iliad and the Trojan War
from Viking Adult
Price: $13.90

Customer Review:

The Iliad's Trojan War has always been portrayed as a war unlike any other war. A war full of opportunities for glory, bravery, loyalty, a personal fulfillment of destiny... But Caroline Alexander, with deft scholarship, shows that there has been a misreading of the Iliad, purposefully, that in the... more info

Riveting story of the impact of culture on patients in the healthcare system. I feel that this should be required for all students in any healthcare related field, as well as all involved with children and parents of different cultures.
