Book Description

The practice of meditation takes us on a fabulous journey into the gap between our thoughts, where all the advantages of a more peaceful, stress-free, healthy, and fatigue-free life are available, but which are simply side benefits. The paramount reason for daily meditation is to get into the gap between our thoughts, and make conscious contact with the creative energy of life itself. Dr. Wayne W. Dyer explains the soul-nourishing meditation technique for making conscious contact with God, which the ancient masters have told us about.

You have the potential to be an instrument of the highest good for all concerned and to be a literal miracle worker in your own life. No person, government, or religion can legitimately claim to do this for you. “In fact,” says Dr. Dyer, “I agree with Carl Jung who said, ‘One of the main functions of formalized religion is to protect people against a direct experience of God.’” When you master getting into the gap and staying there for prolonged segments of meditation, and experience what you bring back to the material world, you will know your answer to the question: “Why meditate?”

God's one and only voice is silence!.......2007-10-16

We are know how difficult it is to shut down your mind. This book will help you.

It is the spaces between the words that you focus upon or the spaces between the leaves.

This slowing down of the mind combined with Japa is a powerful way to connect to your source.

Another good technique to shut down your thoughts is to focus on what your next thought will be...you don't know!!!

Or focusing on your last thought and the thought before that and so on.

A must read for those who working on higher conciousness.

Book Description

Here is an exploration of pulp literature and pulp mentalities: an investigation into the nature and theory of the contemporary mind in art and in life. Here too, the violent, the sensational and the erotic signify different facets of the modern experience plays out in the gaudy pages of kitsch literature. Clive Bloom offers the reader a chance to investigate the underworld of literary production and from it find a new set of co-ordinates for questions regarding publishing and reading practices in America and Britain, ideas of genre, problems related to commercial production, concerns regarding high and low culture, the canon and censorship, as well as a discussion of the rhetoric of current critical debate. Concentrating on remembered authors as well as many long regarded or forgotten, Cult Fiction provides a theory of kitsch art that radically alters our perceptions of literature and literary values while providing a panorama of an almost forgotten history: the history of pulp.

This book is great! Unfortunately my last roommate took my copy, so I have to buy it again.

I must disagree with the reader from NY and agree with the one from Boston! After reading and checking the background to this book all information is correct! for example: I found no other pictures on the net! I would strongly recommend this book as a good buy!

Disagree!.......2000-02-06

I strongly disagree with this arguement, the book is extremely accurate in what it says and very well executed if i may say so! I think a judgement can only be made by an individual and i recommend that it be bought and your opinions put forward!

Book Description

Pulp brings together in one volume chapters on the bestseller, detective fiction, popular romance, science fiction and horror. It combines a lucid and accessible account of the cultural theories that have informed the study of popular fiction with detailed readings of particularly Jackie Collins, Jilly Cooper, Colin Dexter, William Gibson, Stephen King, Iain Banks, Terry McMillan and Walter Mosley. Scott McCracken argues that popular fiction serves a vital function in the late twentieth century: it provides us with the means to construct a workable sense of self in the face of the disorientating pressures of modernity.

WONDEFUL OVERVIEW OF HERO PULPS.......2006-09-01

Don Hutchinson not only knows his subject matter, he loves it as well. There is a wondrous enthusiam that plays itself out in these pages and gives the reader the briefest glimpse on what the pulp era was truly all about. A great book, both for its fun and its information. Should be in the library of any pulp fan worth his or her salt.

HEROES DEL PASADO.......2006-02-20

El libro del canadiense Don Hutchinson es una buena y muy interesante guia para conocer las historias, estilos y superheroes de la epoca dorada del PULP. Indiana Jones, Sky Captain y Jack Burton (de MASACRE EN EL BARRIO CHINO) son muestra de estos personajes que actualemente son más atractivos por cargar con ese estilo "retro" de un mundo donde todabia habia maravillas por descubrir, organizaciones secretas por encontrar, poderes fantásticos, tierras perdidas, civilizaciones olvidadas, criminales científicos egomaniacos que querian conquistar la tierra.
Darse cuenta de los personajes e historias que se movian en esa epoca enriquece el acervo cultural del lector fantástico y a los neofitos les habre un nuevo mundo que no conocian y que querran disfrutar despues de leer este libro:
La SOMBRA, Doc Savage, Los pilotos G-8, La Araña, Capitan Futuro y muchos más analizados y recordados en este excelente libro.

Great Pulp With Great Mistakes.......2003-10-05

This is one of the few books I've come across that features a solid overview of the hero pulp era and touches on all the major titles, characters and trends. In addition, Don Hutchison gives the reader some fascinating inside stories on the creators behind "the masked men" themselves. He obviously has a deep love and a detailed knowledge of his subject matter.

Unfortunately, this potentially great book is marred by some poor formatting, inconsistencies and more importantly, some really careless spelling mistakes. In fact, the editors at Mosaic must have had narcolepsy or something because I found one or more cropping up every couple of pages. It's just embarrassing, not to mention distracting. Sure, a couple of errors I could ignore. But c'mon guys, my edition is on the third printing! You should've caught all this by now. It's like they just threw the whole book together...which is too bad given the earnestness of Hutchison's writing.

It's also too bad the book doesn't go further than it does (it only clocks in at about 276 pages with a large font) and it would've been nice if the cover section had featured some glossy colour instead of plain b&w (but I assume they're just trying to cut down on print costs.)

Other than that, I certainly enjoyed the book and it's definitely worth the read...it's just all the errors I could've lived without.

The definitive book on the pulp heros in print........1998-10-18

The coverage of the characters, content, authors, and even some of the artists of the pulp hero era of American popular literature within this volume are excellent and help you really understand the blood, sweat and tears that went into the development of the pulps. A Must-read on the subject!

A History of the Best Known Pulp Fiction Characters.......1998-06-11

From about the mid 1920's to the mid-1950's, one of the most popular entertainments available that were serious competition to radio and the movies was the pulp magazine. Printed on the cheapest kind of paper and with the most lurid covers, these magazines provided some of the most vivid action and suspence in print in the 20th century. While the medium is largely dead now and replaced by TV, comics and the paperback novel, the most famous heroes still created descendents of some of our most popular current fictional adventure characters. They include Batman(inspired by the pulp character, The Shadow), Superman(Doc Savage) and James Bond (Operator #5). In this book, Don Hutchison talks about this influential medium focusing on the major characters and the writers who spun these wild yarns. With detailed knowledge, the reader can learn about these characters, their development and the source of their appeal with wonderful vividness. The only shortcoming I see is that I would have preferred to have some more detailed thoughts on their latter day influence. However, if you want learn about what popular literature was like before TV was developed and the comic book hit its full stride, then this is a book for you.

Book Description

Examining the role of transnational radio broadcasting in the 20th century, this study compares and contrasts the goals and objectives of six broadcast networks: the BBC, Radio Free Europe, Voice of America, Radio Marti, Radio Free Asia, and Vatican Radio. The work traces the evolution--technical and programmatic--at each institution through world events such as World War II, the Cold War, the Solidarity Movement, the democratization of the Eastern bloc, and Tiananmen Square. Utilizing a series of case studies provided by selected authorities, the study demonstrates the effect of radio upon differing societies. Also, it explores options for alternative programming for each network, emphasizing their relationships to the evolving international political and media community in the late 20th century. The work will be of interest to scholars and students of mass media and international relations.

Book Description

This is the story of the Marine Corps in the major combat phase of Operation Iraqi Freedom (OIF). It tells how the I Marine Expeditionary Force (MEF) planned and prepared for war in 2002 and deployed to theater in early 2003, and then how it crossed the line of departure and fought its way to Baghdad—and beyond. Written by Marine Corps historian Col. Nicholas Reynolds, this first overview of the history of OIF is solidly grounded in oral history interviews and buttressed by official reports and firsthand journals. It describes not only the execution of the original plan but some of the unusual additions carried out by the Marines, including a small mission sent to Kurdistan to work with local fighters and a task force sent to seize Saddam Hussein's hometown of Tikrit. The book draws to a close with the commanders analyzing the lessons learned in this "transformational" war as the last Marine left the theater in the fall of 2003.

While not intended as finished history, this authoritative analysis of what happened will prove useful to students of Marine Corps history and operations and easily accessible to the general reader who wants to understand what the Marines did in a historical context. It is certain to stimulate further research and healthy debate. Comprehensive notes are included for the reader who wants to learn more about a particular part of the war.

The First Official (Well Semi-Official) History.......2005-07-14

The military services produce 'official histories' of their combat actions. This is the first (but almost certainly not the last) of the official histories of the recent war with Iraq. It is written by the marine officer in charge of the marine history unit in Iraq. It combines his own observations with those of his team and with the official reports produced by each of the major marine units in the field.

This book provides the first comprehensive story of the marines in Iraq. It begins with the run-up to war in 2002 and continues through 2003 as the commanders analyze the lessons learned in this war and the departure of the last Marine in the fall 0f 2003. There is only a hint that the Marines would be returning in 2004.

These will be other, bigger, more complete official histories that come out of this war. This book is the first, and probably will form the framework that will be used by the later historians.

This book is also written with a view to its being read by the general public. It is a lot more interesting reading than the true official history will be.

Book Description

This engaging book takes us back to the domestic world of the landed gentry in seventeenth-century England. J. T. Cliffe explores the interior and exterior of country houses and discusses their social and economic role. He provides colorful details about the lives of squires and their families, the duties of servants and others who lived in the houses, and the scandals that embroiled some households.

Customer Reviews:

A flawed but essential survey.......1999-10-13

Cliffe presents an extensive survey of family and public records from a number of sources. The Public Record office is the source of many of the more interesting tidbits, but no less significant are the private records of descendants of his subjects, for example, the Earl of Verulam, Lord Cobbold, Lord Daventry and a Major J. R. More-Molyneux. He shows very little inclination to editorialise, preferring to let the sources speak for themselves. Where he dare to conject, the impression is that it is on the basis of the wealth of detail that he has not managed to fit in rather than imagination. This is all very well and properly academic, but it does mean that there are many gaps and unanswered, or poorly answered questions that arise.

He deals with the first such in his introduction. Here he explains his aim, "a study of the country houses of the gentry, their inhabitants, including servants and other employees, and the activities which went on around such houses" (vii). This is a laudable endeavour, after all, as he points out, the nobility have had their fair share of historical attention already. The question is, who are the gentry? We all know who and what the nobility are and there is a legal status conferred upon the nobility (such that the duelist Lord Mohan could expect to be judged by his peers rather than a court of law). There is no similar legal definition for the gentry, as one contemporary lawyer, John Seldon once observed, "What a gentleman is, `tis hard with us to define" (vii).

Cliffe's definition is "families owning landed property which were headed by baronets or knights or men described as `esquire' or `gentleman' in such official documents as heraldic visitation records, subsidy rolls and hearth tax returns." (vii) This is a workable, if broad definition but it is a conclusion that Cliffe reaches after only one paragraph. In later chapters he hints at arguments and court cases concerning the definition of gentlemen and it seems to me there might have been material enough for a whole chapter on the subject.

This task is not made any easier by Cliffe's decision to "limit" his study to the seventeenth century. Historians always wrestle with ways of defining period of time and this book highlights the problems that often lead them to focus on the reign of one monarch. Even if a King or Queen rules over a period of incredible social change (like good king Harry) one can rest assured that life at the end of their reign is going to bare a least some resemblances to life when they came to the throne. Perhaps some centuries are similarly blessed with social stability, but surely the least stable must have been the seventeenth? In my uneducated (but intuitive) opinion I'm willing to bet that there was less social change between William III's reign and George IV's than the huge upheaval between James I's and William's. A book that makes a narrative of the upheaval, telling the story of how the world of the country house changed over this period would be an interesting read in it's own right, but Cliffe's book is not it. In fact I'm surprised that Cliffe has not dedicated a chapter to it at least. What we have instead is a book that does not even drawn from its sources in chronological order. The scholar must work through every chapter sifting out the items relevant to their period and being careful not to to use sources from twenty or eighty years before their period to make inaccurate generalisations. That said there are plenty of nuggets of considerable interest.

Very good read!.......2006-05-01

According to this book,
a 1935 hurricane sandblasted victims into particles in Florida.
However, this sounds like an urban legend repeated one too many times. I assume the people were dead already, a long time, and rotting on beach. But I wonder if the "fact" is really true, or just another hurrican alley urban legend? Sounds fishy to me.

For consultants, worth its weight in gold.......1999-02-19

While not a cookbook, this is definitely a "how-to" book by a woman who's forgotten more about "how to" than I'll ever know. Betty explains not only how to research, analyze, and document the entire spectrum of possible environmental impacts, but why, and she does it in easily accessible language. The bulk of her experience is in transportation, and it shows in the text, but the principles and procedures apply to any federal project. I made sure my staff had a copy so they wouldn't keep swiping mine. Thanks, Betty, we needed this...it's everything you promised and more!

The best all-in-one handbook for environmental practitioners.......1997-03-22

This would be excellent for use as a college textbook in engineering, planning, or administrative curricula. As a guide throught the environmental regulations maze, it is an invaluable to consultants and agency personnel alike. The advice and tips related to preparing better quality and more efficient environmental documents is well worth the investment in this book. C.
