James Faris's Navajo and Photography concerns a world that has nearly disappeared: that of the traditional Navajos, the Indian people of the high desert American Southwest. What Faris calls "non-hostile" Navajos became an essential part of the tourist trade following the Indian Wars of the 19th century, and their representation in photographic images was a carefully crafted departure from the realities of reservation life. The Navajos were depicted as proud yet friendly warriors, not as defeated enemies and wards of a conquering state. Those photographs--and Faris's book contains scores of them--were important instruments in the foundation of a "conventional wisdom" about who Indians were and how they lived. As Faris shows in his commentary, the Navajos did not always willingly participate in this mythmaking process, and sometimes subtly subverted it. Even so, history and anthropology books are full of ersatz images of characters such as the famous "Navajo Brigand of the Black Mountain Country." Faris's text is an important contribution to a growing body of criticism of what might be called "the manufacture of The Other."
Book Description
This thorough critical examination of photographic practices calls attention to the inability of most photography to communicate the lived experiences of native people or their history. Faris's survey, beginning with the earliest photographs of Navajo in captivity at the Bosque Redondo and including the most recent glossy picture books and calendars, points up the Western assumptions that have always governed photographic representation of Navajo people.
Drawing on exhaustive archival research to unearth rarely published photographs as well as unpublished photographs by well-known photographers, Faris documents Navajo resistance to the West's view (and viewfinder) and persistent attempts to overcome or dismiss such resistance. He challenges the photographic history of the Navajo people as presented by photographers, historians, and anthropologists, and explores the social and legal conditions that make such photography possible. Confronting many readers' nostalgic expectations, Navajo and Photography will appeal to all those with an interest in the juxtaposition of cultures and photographic critique.

Photographs 10, text 0!.......1997-12-06
Chapter 1, sentence 2: "The West had long privileged scopic enterprises and visual modalities, and by the mid-nineteenth century an observational visualist hegemony became a persistent focus of modernism in social, scientific, and aesthetic endeavours - and certainly of anthropology." The photgraphs are new and wonderful; Professor Faris's text is no match for them. First, it is largely unreadable (see sample above). Second, what I could read was tediously PC (that "hegemony" should have tipped me off!). Third, it adds very little to my knowledge of the "juxtaposition of cultures" as promised on the dust jacket. Where was the editor who should have read this manuscript with an active red pencil? Ok, perhaps this is just an extreme example of scholarly writing - not intended for the general reader like myself. If so, too bad. Professor Faris has succeeded in turning a tremendously interesting selection of photographs into a book that is dense and unenlightening.

Dave describes the dark side of tourism with such comical precision that you'll wonder why you ever bother to leave the safety of your living room. For my money, nobody has ever produced a better snapshot of the Baggage Carousel, "where passengers traditionally gather at the end of a flight to spend several relaxing hours watching the arrival of luggage from some other flight, which comes randomly spurting out of a mysterious troll-infested tunnel that is apparently connected to another airport, possibly in a different dimension."

What a comic writer.......2007-08-28
Many in America are familiar with Dave Barry. I don't know anyone in Ireland or the UK who's ever heard of him. i have introduced my mother to him. She is a writer and appreciates good humour. I think she wasn't expecting him to be quite so funny though. When I said he is hillarious, I was not over reacting. I was pleasantly surprised to see her nearly fall over in histerics. Humour is good for the soul. Dave Barry is good for the soul. This book covers travel across all of the states, many European countries, Scandanavia, some parts of Asia. For his own reasons, Dave has catalogued some countries together... either his summary of one was so similar to many others, or he was so unimpressed he was lost for words! Either way, you'll enjoy this. How could you not?!
One of his best!.......2007-08-23
Irreverent, "inaccurate" look at travel in the US and abroad. If you've ever traveled by car, flown in an airplane, visited foreign countries, camped with friends or family, you will find this book hilarious. Barry has a keen insight into the traps and pitfalls of modern-day travel and expresses it in an outrageously funny manner.
Five stars are not enough!.......2007-03-29
Dave Barry *is* the Funniest Man in America, and here's the proof!
hysterical.......2005-11-08
"Mankind has always had a yen to travel," Dave Barry writes in the introduction to his "Only Travel Guide You'll Ever Need." To make the journey a more comfortable one, he offers helpful tips such as "Never go outside the hotel," and "Never board a commercial aircraft if the pilot is wearing a tank top. He also promises to say if a country is awful even if he has not technically been there. He describes the advantages to traveling inside the U.S. which is that you are never far from American advantages like Chicken McNuggets and window-cup suction Garfield dolls. But he also ventures to Europe, where he describes the joy of bribing nuns, working with a travel agent, choosing a car rental company, attempting to cross the language barrier (he includes a list of helpful foreign phrases), having fun with airport security (this was written before 9-11), traveling as a family, and hints for getting through customs. He describes all 50 states (well sort of), as well as major European countries and their main attractions. He also provides maps, which if not strictly accurate, are still amusing.
READING THIS BOOK IS A TRIP!.......2005-10-22
Books, yes books. When I was in seventh grade they had a manditory twenty minute reading period just after lunch. In this twenty minutes I would usually draw pictures, flirt with the girl that sat behind me, or do something ridiculous and get kicked out of class.
Matt Hathaway sat next to me and i always saw him laughing uncontrollably to himself, and I could never figure out why. "What the hell are you laughing at?" I eventually asked one day.
He let me borrow THIS book, and instantly I discovered the mind of Dave Barry. Nowadays he has loads and loads of books. He has recently dabbled in fiction which I still have yet to read, although one of his books was made into a movie. My favorite has to be this one though, still.
Maybe it's just the irony that thanks to this book I was actually reading during reading class. However the book had me laughing so uncontrollably that I still got kicked out of class. Even more so than I was probably in the first place. I'd still be laughing in the principals office....
What is supposed to be a travel guide, really just ends up being a trip.
GREAT TIME READING THIS ONE....

Book Description
`It wasn't as good as the book' - this is the response to many a film adaptation, and even the starting point of many film reviews. Novel to Film is the first sytematic theoretical account of the process by which the great (and not so great) works of literature are transformed into the good, bad (sometimes ugly) but always distinctive medium of cinema. Drawing upon recent relevant literary and film theory, the book provides careful analysis of the theory and practice of metamorphosis. The Scarlet Letter, Random Harvest, Great Expectations, Daisy Miller and Cape Fear provide case studies which represent a range of fiction and cinematic practice.

The World of Jay Leno: His Humor and His Life.......2005-03-22
I think it sucked because it wasn't good. Leno is an ass!
Jay Leno.......2000-12-16
I thought this was a good book it talked about Jay's whole life. It started from his younger years in school and just kept getting a little more interesting. They talked about the kind of jobs he had to take at bars and clubs to get started. People would boo him and make fun of him, but he kept working hard because thats what he loved to do comedy. He bacame popular by being on Dave Lettermans show and Ed Sullivans. He then took over for Ed Sullivan and is now on the Tonight Show
Book Description
The first book to chronicle the life and ideas of “the serious baseball fan’s high priest” (New York Times), the impact of his brilliant and entertaining writings, and how someone who never pitched a ball, held a bat, or managed a team fundamentally changed the way baseball is interpreted, analyzed, and even played.
Bill James has been called “baseball’s shrewdest analyst” (Slate) and “part of baseball legend” (The New Yorker), and his Baseball Abstract has been acclaimed as the “holy book of baseball” (Chicago Tribune). Thirty years ago, James introduced a new approach to evaluating players and strategies, and now his theories have become indispensable tools for agents, statistics analysts, maverick general managers, and anyone who is serious about understanding the game.
James began writing about baseball while working at a factory in his native Kansas. In lively, often acerbic prose, he used statistics to challenge entrenched beliefs and uncover surprising truths about the game. His annual Baseball Abstract captured the attention of fans and front offices and went on to become a bestselling staple of the baseball book category. In 2002, the Boston Red Sox hired James as an advisor. Two years later they achieved their long-awaited World Series triumph.
The Mind of Bill James tells the story of how a gifted outsider inspired a new understanding of baseball. It delves deeply into James’s essential wisdom–including his surprising beliefs about pitch counts and the importance of batting-order, thoughts on professionalism and psychology, and why teams tend to develop the characteristics that are least favored by their home parks. It also brings together his best writing, much of it long out of print, as well as insights from new interviews. Written with James’ full cooperation, it is at once an eye-opening portrait of baseball’s virtuoso analyst and a treasury of his idiosyncratic genius.
Customer Reviews:
Just read Bill James himself..........2006-12-28
This book could have been titled "The Best of Bill James" instead of "The Mind of Bill James." About 70% of the book is just excerpts from old publications of James', often inserted without any real context or additional insight. Gray, when he appears, is a decent writer but not a great one, and I agree with an earlier reviewer who said that his writing style often seems derivative of James himself.
Fun in parts, but poorly edited, disorganized, and ultimately a very sparse book.
Book does not live up to its catchy subtitle.......2006-09-08
"The Mind of Bill James: How a Complete Outside Changed Baseball" delivers better on the first part of the title.
The book serves as a narrative biography of James, who is best known for popularizing a term he coined, "Sabrmetrics" or the use of statistics to analyze all facets of baseball decisionmaking, from which minor league pitchers would have solid major league careers to the value of stolen bases. While it summarizes James's most important ideas, it really doesn't explore how they've impacted the Major Leagues at all, even though James is now a paid consultant to the Red Sox and his ideas clearly play a role.
Gray's sources seem to be limited to James's writings (which are mostly out of date) and interviews with James. He really doesn't seem to have talked at all with other baseball executives to get their views on James's methods, and therefore its really difficult to know how seriously those truly "in power" take them. For instance, Billy Beane of the A's is known to use Jamesian methods and done quite well with them (see Michael Lewis's "Moneyball"). Gray doesn't seem to have talked with him or other GMs though.
Another disappointment is the cursory coverage Gray gives some of James's most important ideas, such as the concept of "Win Shares" that allows players to be evaluated over different periods of time, i.e. did Yogi Berra or Jackie Robinson contribute more to their teams' success? Calling the concept too complicated to really break down, Gray doesn't even get to it until about 2/3 of the way through the book.
One of the reasons for this is a real weakness of the book - its use of a narrative format instead of a topical one. Because the book takes James from childhood to the presdent and discusses his ideas as he wrote them, there's no sense of hierarchy, i.e., which of them are most important in terms of their contribution to baseball, which is the book's ostensible purpose.
Finally, the book doesn't really take a comprehensive look at the world of baseball analysis to get a sense of how much ground James really broke. The Society for American Baseball Research (SABR) preceeded James's appearance onto the scene. To what extent did James popularize work being done already (James can write clearly and make the mundane fascinating) and to what extent did he plow new ground? Again, while the book acknowledges that there was this universe of research and analysis before James, he doesn't even begin to explore this.
None of this is to criticize James at all, who best exemplifies someone who writes about the game with intelligence and passion. His ideas are important (whether you agree with him or not), and deserve a better explication than this volume.
In short, a good concept poorly executed in my view.
fusion.......2006-08-24
One sign of a great, compelling biography, I think, is a kind of merging of the two voices - that of the subject of the biography and that of the biographer himself. When a kind of seamless interaction between them occurs on the page the result can be beautifully illuminating. Scott Gray's The Mind of Bill James: How a Complete Outsider Changes Baseball accomplishes exactly this and does so by focusing on the essence of James' contribution to the game rather than devoting too much time to more personal details of his subjects' history. That said, the book is, in it's way, intensely personal - again, from the both the standpoint of the individual as well as the author, for both make a deeply felt, strong case for the beauty of real, meaningful information over appearances, not only in baseball, but in ostensibly disparate subjects such as politics and crime stories as well. Essentially Gray's book supports James' method and approach to deciphering the actual and real strengths of a baseball team and of individual players by citing him extensively. But what makes the book such a great read is that Gray provides an enlightening and, at times, poetic, context in which sabermetrics takes on the broader scope of things. His particular form of prose is not ethereal or flowery at all however, on the contrary, it is rather calculated, surefooted, and certain, and possesses edges as sharp as the James analyses cited throughout the book. This book represents what I consider a perfect fusion, a great meeting of the minds. I think the thought that most struck me from reading it is that I'm sure James would have been an incredibly interesting voice in any pursuit - and Gray's book conveys that in a comparably staightforward and precise way and with undeniable enthusiasm and depth.
A compelling read about a fascinating man. .......2006-08-07
Gray takes the bio genre into uncharted waters--a perfect match for his iconoclastic, quirky subject. Full of unique insights and strange-and-beautiful humor, Gray's book takes us on a remarkable journey as we discover how this maverick came to be so loved and so hated and so influential in the baseball world.
An unusual and worthwhile read.......2006-08-04
As baseball books go, this one is unusual. Instead of mimicking the tried-and-true journalistic voice of authority, the author lets his subject do most of the talking, about baseball in general and the Red Sox in particular, as well as on things that have little to do with sport but are nonetheless interesting, such as the Ramsey murder, life in the Army during the Vietnam era, race, and psychology. In one lengthy passage, the author uses old and new James analysis to make a case for Lou Whitaker being severly underrated and having had more value to his teams than Ernie Banks or Lou Brock to theirs. Whether you agree or disagree, or you like Bill James or don't, this book is pretty fascinating. Some reviewers have complained about the structure, but I found it a fun and easy read. If you're a Red Sox fan, you'll dig the "Pedro Martinez / London pub" story.

Book Description
Timothy McVeigh and Terry Nichols were not the lone conspirators in the Oklahoma City bombing-the attack that killed nearly 170 people in a few short seconds. They were part of a greater scheme, one which involved Islamic terrorists and at least one provable link to Iraq. This book, written by the relentless reporter who first broke the story of the Mideast connection, is filled with new revelations about the case and explains in full detail the complete, and so far untold, story behind the failed investigation-why the FBI closed the door, what further evidence exists to prove the Iraqi connection, why it has been ignored, and what makes it more relevant now than ever. Told with a gripping narrative style and rock-solid investigative journalism and vetted by men such as former CIA director James Woolsey, Davis's piercing account is the first book to set the record straight about what really happened April 19, 1995.
Customer Reviews:
We need to take a fresh look at "The Third Terrorist".......2007-10-04
I was originally skeptical concerning Jayna Davis' belief that Middle Eastern extremists partnered with Timothy McVeigh and Terry Nichols. That is no longer the case. We are learning more about how the Bill Clinton administration preferred looking the other way when dealing with terrorism. This was a presidency focused almost exclusively on domestic issues. The Oklahoma bombing placed Clinton in a no-win situation. Today's Democrats are simply not able to sufficently deal with matters requiring a violent response. Their hearts and souls have been surrendered to George McGovern and his ilk. We can take it for granted that Clinton's people wouldn't hesitate to pressure the FBI to downplay any possible involvement of Saddam Hussein's government in this slaughter of innocents. The very idea of this particular commander-in-chief being compelled to become a wartime president sent chills up and down their spines.
Please note that serious individuals like David P. Schippers and former CIA director, James Woolsey strongly recommend the reading of "The Third Terrorist." The latter gentleman even adds that this book has effectively shifted "the burden of proof to those would still contend McVeigh and Nichols executed the 1995 Oklahoma City bombing without the support of a group or groups from the Middle East." There is another book you should read. It is Norta Trulock's Code Name Kindred Spirit: Inside the Chinese Nuclear Espionage Scandal. Once again, Bill Clinton apparently failed to carry out his responsibilities to protect the citizens of the United States.
this book SHOULD NOT go un-noticed! read it!.......2007-02-28
id say there is overwhelming evidence in this book, yet, the powers that be are so corrupt nothing will be done!
Bravo Jayna Davis.......2007-01-23
I am by nature a skeptic and need alot of proof to believe things that are against the grain; this book made me a believer. So did McVeigh and Nichols act alone as we are led to believe? Jayna Davis presents very solid facts surrounding the case of the Oklahoma City bombing of the Murrah Federal Building and that they did not act alone. Without bogging you down with the details, suffice to say Ms.Davis presents some very compelling facts to make even the most skeptical person a believer. This is not some way out radical conspiracy theory with more holes than swiss cheese, this is the truth every American needs to know. I am only puzzled why the Justice Department did not pursue some of the hard evidence presented here in this book. In fact they turned her away. The connection to the Middle East is hard to disagree with after reading this book. No small review can convince you but by reading her book, you will be convinced that there was a connection leading up to that dark day in April 1995 when terrorism hit the heartland. This is great reading material that every American should read.
Yousef and Al Quaeda, not Saddam.......2006-11-18
Jayna Davis provides compelling OKC bombing connections to between Timothy McVeigh, John Doe #2 who Davis identifies as Hussein Al Husseini, and ultimately Ramsi Yousef. Unfortunately, in a few pages, Davis abandons reason and objectivity, and wrongly concludes that Saddam was behind the bombing. The only evidence provided is that Al Husseini was a former Iraqi Republican Guard soldier. With that logic we can tie any U.S. president to the bombing, since McVeigh was also former military. Despite this flaw, there is enough detailed investigative reporting here to conclude McVeigh colluded with at least some middle extremists to produce the worst terrorist attack at that time on our soil. It is unfortunate that persons hang on to the poorest formed conclusions to advance their Saddam is behind all evil theory. If only ten years ago some of that paranoia was directed at Yousef and Al Quaeda...
Outstanding.......2006-11-04
As a retired prosecutor's investigator with over 40 years of law enforcement and intelligence experience, I consider this book to be the finest, most comprehensive investigative report I have ever read. The myth of the FBI's omnipotence is exposed, the incontrovertible facts reported bearing witness to that agency's institutional incompetence and laziness. The political cowardice of two administrations in the aftermath of the attack is quite apparent.
