4 out of 5 stars This is the perfect gift for those who love golf lovers........1999-06-18

I was in the bookstore wondering to get for my friend. A golf neophyte, he finds the sport both rewarding and relaxing. He once told me that golf was the perfect game and sport because, ''you aren't competing against your friends, you're competing agianst yourself." This was the perfect book for him and anyone who respects the game. Golf can be so very relaxing and it's nice to have a book that tells you where the fun is. I also enjoyed the book because it was easy to follow and inexpensive. This is a great Father's Day gift as well. Bravo.

5 out of 5 stars loaded with great information!.......1999-06-17

I've lived in this area for over twenty years, and this guide provided information that I was unaware of, for my own town. It'll be invaluable as I travel to other cities this year.

5 out of 5 stars If you travel a lot, and you love golf, this book is an ace.......1999-06-10

What a great idea for a book! Why didn't somebody think of this sooner? I can't tell you how many times I've skipped an opportunity to play on the road simply because I didn't know anything about the courses in that area. Never again. The next time I'm hacking up a course during some spare time on a business trip, I'm going to blame the guys who wrote this book.

5 out of 5 stars Excellent research, informative, a must for all golfers!.......1999-05-29

At one time or another, any avid golfer is traveling...but wants to still be able to get in that golf game. What a great way to guide golfers to the courses on their route! One can tell that much research went into this book to offer the golfer all the information needed to handily find a course when they are traveling. Well written, very organized, helpful, insightful...no golfer could ask for more when it comes to locating a course while they are on the go!

5 out of 5 stars To a golfer on the go, as vital as a reliable putter!.......1999-05-25

This is more than just a listing of great golf courses, although it is jammed with great places to play. The book offers a travel-guide approach to golf. It is written for the business traveler on the road with a half-day to kill, or for those unlucky enough to visit non-golfing in-laws. It's for the best man at a wedding with free time before the rehearsal dinner. Or for any golfer who finds him or herself in a strange city looking for a nearby place to tee it up. If you're on the road and want to golf, Business Traveler's Guide to Golf takes the worry out of logistics. Time spent wasted wondering and questioning is a thing of the past. It offers quick access to fine public courses in major metropolitan areas from coast to coast. Quickly and simply, the out-of-town golfer can answer these vital questions: * Which courses in this town are worth playing? * Where is this course relative to the airport or downtown? * How do I get there? * Can I rent clubs, is there a driving range, restaurant, locker room? * How much does it cost to play? Business Traveler's Guide to Golf includes extensive information on airports, taxi, limo and bus services, and also offers detailed maps with pin-pointed locations of courses in each of the 38 metropolitan areas covered. There are more than 1,000 courses listed, and more than 80 courses featured with breathtaking photos, stories, scorecard information, etc. Every course in the book is open to the public. This book is designed in a reader-friendly manner with information that can get you from the airport terminal to the first tee by saying one word, `Taxi.' There are plenty of golf guides on the market, but this one is unique in that it deals with the details of getting to and from the course with no worries. And, you don't have to be rich to enjoy the courses in Business Traveler's Guide to Golf, although there are many pricey courses included. Included among the courses listed are regular stops for the PGA Tour, outstanding neighborhood courses, as well as executive courses that allow a golfer to quickly complete a round. Prices range from $10 to upwards of $200, so there is a quality place to play in each city with a price tag to your liking. This book should be in every golfer's bag and every traveler's suitcase.

          Book Description

          Since the fall of the Berlin Wall the countries of Central and Eastern Europe have had to deal with completely new legislative and policy challenges relating to migration. This book reviews current and expected migration trends in Central and Eastern Europe, including trends in labour migration, transit migration, trafficking and migrant smuggling. It considers how EU enlargement eastwards is likely to affect international migration in Europe and examines how much progress Central and Eastern European countries have made in aligning their migration legislation and migration policies with EU practice.

              Recently, I read a book called Sharks. The was no ordinary book. The information in this book took years to discover.

              Sharks was written by Jonathan Sheikh-Miller in the year 2000. Miller reaches out to all audiences with this book and educates them with the facts found in its pages.

              The information found in this book includes where sharks live, how they swim, their relatives, and much more.

              I would like to recommend this book to all the ocean lovers out there who want to know about its greatest species.

              This book is definately worth your time.

              This book gives details about different types of sharks. They tell you about great white's ect. They tell about their eatting habits. They tell about where they live ect. This book would be good for people grades 4-6. Some facts are they mate almost the same way we do. If they don't have any fins they can't survivw. It was copy writed in 2000.

                          Following the same format as the highly successful Volume 1, Volume 2 applies the principles of deformation to the analysis of folds and fractures. There are 13 sessions, each providing 3 hours of practical work and problems. The problems are well-illustrated with photographs and drawings, and the solutions are discussed in detail. All the sessions are drawn from actual geological examples and are extensively illustrated with photographs taken in the field and with micrographs, giving students a feeling for what actually occurs in nature.

                          5 out of 5 stars Structural Geologists, Buy This Book!.......2002-05-17

                          Another essential piece in building your structural geology book collection. Everything you needed to know about folds and faults. Occasionally goes overboard on fold and fault classification, but aids greatly in kinematic analysis of rock deformation. Great text for Advanced Structure class!

                              Book Description

                              In Conflict and Connection, Sharon Stringer offers a valuable cross-disciplinary view of how the lives of characters in fiction reflect the growth and behavioral stages of adolescents. . She demonstrates how by synthesizing literature in English and psychology, we can foster critical thinking and intensify the power of education inside and outside the classroom.

                              Each chapter focuses on a particular topic such as identity development, moral development, or family relations, drawing parallels between the themes of several young adult novels and like concepts in adolescent psychology. The author integrates findings from psychological studies on early and late adolescence and discusses developmental changes, signs of risk, and disturbances during adolescence.

                              Texts on developmental psychology are not routinely read by English teachers. Conflict and Connection reveals what would happen if they were: how teachers could help students attain clearer insights not only about character development in fiction but about life itself.

                              5 out of 5 stars A Must for Middle School Teachers.......2001-06-13

                              Teachers love this book and tell me they share the contents with parents at Open House, with administrators when justifying using YA lit in their classrooms, and to plan their literacy lessons. Mothers have said that it helps them to understand what is happening in their middle schoolers' minds. Some of the chapter titles are superb - my favorite is "There's a war going on inside my head." I wish it had been available when I was teaching middle school.
