              4 out of 5 stars Good for Beginners.......2007-07-13

              My experience drawing Manga/Anime figures is that of a beginner. I bought about 10 different books to get started as I have zero drawing experience. Of the many fine works that have helped me improve my sketching in a very short time, this one was one of the two most helpful. The "tutorials" in the beginning of the book are great, especially helping a novice draw figures from different angles. The second half of the book is devoted to examples of various manga-style(and yes, in response to another comment...they ARE MANGA) figures for inspiration.

              I am sure the book may not offer much to veteran manga artists...but this newb really appreciated the leg up offered by Mr.Galea's book.

              1 out of 5 stars Not what I was looking for..........2007-05-07

              The art does not represent Manga drawings at all, in my opinion. This book was a big disappointment to me and a waste of money.

              Three-Time Oscar-Winning Cinematographer Vittorio Storaro’s Stunning Book On His Work In Such Films As Apocalypse Now, Dick Tracy, and The Last Emperor

              Cinematographer Vittorio Storaro has worked with some of the most extraordinary film directors of our time—including Bernardo Bertolucci, Francis Ford Coppola, Warren Beatty, and Carlos Saura—to make some of the most breathtaking films of our time. Over the course of his remarkable thirty-five-year career, Storaro has brought visual life to many of the films that have become centerpieces of contemporary cinema.

              Inspired by a gamut of sources, from Italian Renaissance paintings to Francis Bacon to esoteric primitive art to Tarzan comics, Storaro’s visual palette is as diverse as his films are eclectic and gorgeous. Now, for the first time, this master of cinematography outlines his personal philosophy of light, color, and the elements in an unprecedented three-volume opus, Writing with Light. In this first volume, Storaro considers the use of light, manifesting his ideas through his own writing, related film stills, a stunning selection of paintings, and a vast array of quotations from a myriad of philosophers. Together, these components interweave to express Storaro’s unique, philosophical, and powerful vision.

              Storaro’s films include The Conformist, Last Tango in Paris, 1900, Reds, One from the Heart, Tucker, Dick Tracy, The Sheltering Sky, Little Buddha, Tango, Bulworth, Goya in Bordeaux, and Dune.

              4 out of 5 stars A book that should have been much better.......2004-06-19

              Storaro always got the finest looking prints and lab work,
              and his films are stunning ,But the reproductions in this book
              look like as bad as the video for "1900",They are printed on
              nice paper in a nice hardcover,but the source for these images
              is pretty poor,
              I would love to see what a 4000 line scanned capture from
              the original source would look like printed the same way.
              But that would mean getting Studios like Paramount involved,
              Which might mean that the book never came out.Since they
              can't even be trusted to release his best work on dvd.

              It seems odd that Storaro who seems to demand such high Quality
              from his labs,would Ok such poor reprints of his films.

              Still with so many of his films unavailable on dvd,This Book
              is still worth getting.

              5 out of 5 stars From shadow and penumbra to multiform light.......2003-07-26

              Writing With Light is a brilliant coffee-table collection of masterful photograph capturing the essence of light, from shadow and penumbra to multiform light, the sun, the moon, and the infinite. The bilingual text in English and Italian fully complements the vivid images, ranging from art, to scenery, to still frames from movies. Writing With Light is an unforgettable visual celebration and one which is especially commended to personal, profess-ional, academic, and community library collections.

              5 out of 5 stars A beautiful book and a must have!.......2003-02-25

              for any aspiring cameramen, this is a must have book, Storaro's work is both visually stunning and inspiring, and it is about time that a book celebrating the works of this great master of cinematography is made available.

              On July 10, 1999, the world of women's sports changed forever as the U.S. defeated China in the Women's World Cup soccer final in front of 90,000 spectators at the Rose Bowl--and millions more watching on television around the world.

              In The Girls of Summer, Jere Longman tells the story of the women's team, their rise to world dominance, and their struggle with the United States Soccer Federation (U.S.S.F.) for the support, respect, and salary they deserve. Drawing on extensive personal interviews recorded before, during, and after the World Cup, Longman offers up portraits of all the players on the team--Akers, Hamm, Chastain, Milbrett, Overbeck, and the rest. Longman also addresses some of the issues surrounding the team and the Women's World Cup--how U.S.S.F. and the national media seriously underestimated the level of interest the tournament would generate; the questions of race and sexuality; and the positive role models these women provided to a nation of young girls--showing them that they, too, could achieve their dreams.

              Some of Longman's statements ring false--millions of Europeans would be appalled to hear soccer described as a "Third World sport"--but overall, Girls of Summer is a fine tribute to the world champions. --M. Stein

              Book Description

              Now with a new afterword, The Girls of Summer, by the award- winning New York Times sportswriter Jere Longman, takes a serious, compelling look at the women who won the 1999 World Cup and brings to life the skills and victories of the American team. Longman explores the issues this unprecedented achievement has raised: the importance of the players as role models; the significance of race and class; the sexualization of the team members; and the differences between men and women's sports. Provocative and insightful, this book reminds us that the real struggles are off the field -- and some remain to be won.

              I loved this book. It told about the history of what made the team and womens soccer so good and fun. If you love soccer and history, you will love this book.

              5 out of 5 stars Girls of the Century.......2003-04-24

              Jere Longman's, The Girls of Summer, is by far one of the best non-fiction books I have ever read. I am a huge Womens National Team fan. I am always in search for a great book, depicting the life and success's of the entire team. He coherses through the professional and personal lives of the women that grabbed the hearts of the United States. Their success is revealed in this wonderful book.

              I persoanally, could not put this book down when I purchased it. I finished it in two days, it was just so up-lifting. It's a great motivational book. You always wish you were there to experience the moments that the team lived through. From country to country, trial to trial, this team is very special. If someone would like to know the US history of womens soccer, this is a perfect buy. I could picture myself there, it was detailed and deeply moving. I really enjoyed reading on the players whom fought so hard to gain respect and recognition.

              I'm sure, if we saw the final game against China in 1999, we can all say where we were, and how we reacted. For many of us, such as I, we cried for joy. That game was the turning point in womens sports. And Longman made me remember once again what it was like to watch that game, and see the 90,000+ fans going wild after Brandy Chastain scored the final PK. It is a fantastic book for any soccer fan, man or woman. It is a book to read if you feel you need to be inspired. It's worth the buy.

              5 out of 5 stars Best book I've read in a long time.......2002-05-17

              This was an awesome book and the best I've read in a longtime. Everyone should read this regardless of if they play soccer or not.

              5 out of 5 stars great and insperational.......2001-10-12

              I thought that this was a great book. I enjoyed reading it because my favorite female athletes were the subjects in this book. This book shows the stroggle that athletes go through and the publicity that is always there no matter what.

              This was probably the best book that i ever read because i play soccer and i like to seee wha goes around on the proffesional level. The us womens soccer team has gone trough their ups and downs and this book went through it step by step. I felt as though i know what they were going through because it was so real.

              Mia Hamm is right now the best womens soccer play in the world. She is well know in any ste and country. She has been on adds and verious things to promote the womens soccer team. Others team mates have done the same but none to the level of Mia Hamm. This book shows what she has been through and her own personal struggle to make it as a proffesional athlete.

              Now that i have read this book i have even more respect for the womens national soccer team and all proffesional athletes because i am aware of what they have gone through. I have been able to read about my favorite female athletes and know about their past. I recomend this book to anyone who is a female athlete or loves the game of soccer. It's not just for girls it is great for men to learn about proffesiional athletes.

              5 out of 5 stars A book for anyone and everyone.......2001-05-05

              Jere Longman has a real hit here. You don't have to love soccer to love this book. Not only does Longman tell of the Womens World Cup win, but of the entire existance of the National team. He discusses subjects that other authors would never dream of touching, such as sexual orientation of the players. He goes on in-depth about that subject along with many others. If you just want a simple and to the point review of WWC '99, than this book is definately not for you, but I would still consider reading it. It brings back the goosebumps all over again. -The book also includes a few biographical chapters on both american players:Brandi Chastain, Mia Hamm, and Michelle Akers, as well as a bio of China's Sun Wen and Gao Hong. And almost every USA player was interviwed for the book

                  Like they say, everything changes when you have a baby. That's why the lilaguide has become the essential item on every new parent's checklist.

                  Most parents wish their baby came with some sort of user-friendly handbook. Luckily, babies come with a lot of excellent word-of-mouth advice from other parents and friends. In fact, we found that nearly every parent out there has a great piece of child-rearing advice, like which baby store is the most helpful, or which restaurant tolerates strained carrots on the floor. Someone, we thought, should write this stuff down. And that's how, please pardon the pun, the lilaguide was born. Our guides are literally written by parents for parents, through thousands of volunteer surveys. It's what happens when someone writes down all the parental wisdom, organizes it, calculates it and presents it in an easy-to-use format.

                  Apparently a lot of other new parents appreciate the inside scoop provided by the lilaguide, because our little green-striped books are quickly becoming a staple item in diaper bags across the country. You'll find us in bookstores, toy stores, gift stores and maternity wards. Not to mention at a whole lot of baby showers. We're rapidly expanding into major metro markets throughout the country, making the lilaguide the only national guide of its kind.

                    Book Description

                    The lifeblood of the Confederacy, the blockade runners of the Civil War usually began life as regular fast steam-powered merchant ships. They were adapted for the high-speed dashes through the Union blockade which closed off all the major Southern ports, and for much of the war they brought much-needed food, clothing and weaponry to the Confederacy.
                    This book traces their operational history, including the development of purpose-built blockade running ships, and examines their engines, crews and tactics. It describes their wartime exploits, demonstrating their operational and mechanical performance, whilst examining what life was like on these vessels through accounts of conditions on board when they sailed into action.
