4 out of 5 stars Stress Reliever.......2007-06-17

The Credit Diet book I have read and is with out a doubt the most significant book...the instigating factor in turning my life around. I was captured by the book right from the very start and it was the start of me being able to pay off $90,000 in credit card debt in 20 months.

I follow the principles of this book even today and enjoy seeing the interest I receive for the money I have in 5 Key bank accounts.

5 out of 5 stars Should receive 6 Stars.......2006-05-23

John Fuhrman is serious about getting anyone who wants to credit free. Not to take away from the book,The Credit Diet is perfect for people who owe thousands to credit cards to those who just have a couple hundred. Another excellent source for beating debt [...]. I highly recommend it.

5 out of 5 stars Reasonable, practical guide to reducing debt.......2005-12-18

A easy to read book with practical suggestions without being overly simplistic, like other books of this genre. Recommended!

5 out of 5 stars Credit Diet - Outstanding book.......2004-09-23

I can't believe a book on debt reduction was impossible to put down. I read this book in two days! This book goes way beyond all the boring advice of making a budget, cutting back, etc. The author includes in this book something all the other books don't... and that is human nature! So much more important that what to do, John shows you how to stick with it!

In this book John demonstrates the power of a single dollar $1. I saw him in person demonstrate how a person could use only $70 extra per month and wipe out ALL OF THEIR DEBT, including the mortgage, in just 12 years!

Get this book!

5 out of 5 stars He doesn't leave you hanging!.......2004-05-31

          Book Description

          A number of economically important diseases are caused by potyviruses, the largest group of plant viruses. Many of these diseases are distributed worldwide. The development of effective control strategies against viruses is dependent on the availability of reliable methods of identification and detection. To date this has not seemed possible for the potyvirus group, because of its size, complexity, and immense variation. This book brings together the collaborative efforts of exports in the field. It summarizes characteristics of potyviruses which relate to their taxonomy and points to areas which require consideration before an international consensus can be reached. Main topics dealt with in detail are: serological relationships, nucleic acid sequence information, biological properties, and specific problems with several virus subgroups or pairs of viruses.

            Book Description

            Seit 1997 liegt das "Menschenrechtsübereinkommen zur Biomedizin" des Europarates vor, das inzwischen von 11 Mitgliedstaaten des Europarates ratifiziert wurde. Zu diesem Übereinkommen wurde nunmehr der Entwurf eines Zusatzprotokolls über biomedizinische Forschung zur öffentlichen Diskussion in den Mitgliedstaaten freigegeben. Die hier vorgelegte Untersuchung, die aus einem Gutachten im Auftrag des BMBF hervorgegangen ist, unterzieht den Entwurf des Forschungsprotokolls einer kritischen Würdigung, um zu klären, inwieweit die Bestimmungen des Forschungsprotokolls mit dem deutschen und europäischen Recht sowie dem Völkerrecht vereinbar sind. Darüber hinaus sollen Anregungen für Verbesserungen des Entwurfs gegeben werden. Nicht zuletzt steht im Hintergrund die Frage, ob Deutschland dem Forschungsprotokoll später beitreten sollte. Die Untersuchung kommt zu dem Ergebnis, daß der Entwurf in mehrfacher Hinsicht modifizierungsbedürftig ist.

                          Book Description

                          Materials physics is a very active research field at present and it is expected to remain so in the foreseeable future. Different spectroscopies are currently used to investigate the structure and dynamics of crystalline materials. Some traditional spectroscopies are presented in this book: optical, magnetic resonance, ultrasonic, brillouin, neutron scattering, soft mode and dielectric response spectroscopies. For all of them, the presentation is complemented with some reference material for more modern or sophisticated spectroscopies.

                          This book should be useful as an introductory textbook for a short course on solid state spectroscopies. A number of exercises are worked out throughout the text. Ferro- and piezoelectric materials and their phase transitions are paid special attention.

                          Vengeance is Jason Wades only purpose; the Boston lawyer has sworn to avenge his wifes death. Tracking her suspected killer to Wisconsin, he knows that to entertain a flirtation with the lovely Charity Applegate is to court disaster. But her smile weakens his resolve and her honesty breaks down his defenses until Jason wonders if the path to salvation lies not in retribution, but in loving Charity. On the eve of the Civil War, Charity Applegate accepts the risks involved in following ones heart. Her Quaker family aids the underground railroad, and the arrival of Jason Wade could expose them all. But caught in his passionate embrace, Charity realizes he challenges the strength of her courage even further to make a great leap of faith for the best reward for all: love.

                          Loving Charity is not your everyday trashy romance novel. It echoes of Daphne DuMaurier's Rebecca with the historical accuracy of Jeff Shaara and the grammatical correctness of Shakespeare. The romance scenes leave the reader yearning for more. Thee wants to read this book. And it wants thee to read it.

                            Product Description

                            Dante Alighieri, one of the greatest poets of all time, belongs in the immortal company of Homer, Virgil, Milton, and Shakespeare. His poetic masterpiece, the Inferno, is an intense and moving human drama, an unforgettable viionary journey through the horrors of Hell, a vivid pageant of the Middle Ages, and the way of an individual soul from sin to purgatory. The Inferno describes Dante's visit to the lower realms of the next world. He passes through the giant gates with their prophetic inscription: Abandon All Hope Ye Who Enter Here, through the nine circles of Hell, where anguished men and women expiate earthly sins of lust and greed, malice and betrayal, in varying degrees of torment. John Ciardi, a distinguished American poet, ha brilliantly rendered the Inferno into modern English, bringing it alive again, with all the burning clarity and universal relevance with which the thirteenth century genius originally endowed it.

                                              The jeep was the most famous military vehicle of World War II, and its name has become synonymous with a whole class of military and civilian all-terrain vehicles. The jeep originated in a prewar US Army requirement for a simple, inexpensive, and robust vehicle for basic utility chores. Its simple design proved to be adaptable to a host of military tasks including use as a scout vehicle, battlefield ambulance, communications vehicle, and staff car. This book, covering “the savior of World War II”, focuses on the design and development of this versatile vehicle used on nearly every front of World War II.

This volume has articles on a wide variety of subjects including special features, air, petroleum & lubrications, electrical, maintenance, Sgt. Half-Mast, contributions, rumors, paint and tires. There's a ton of stuff in this volume--"Modern design-a new 1/4 ton trailer", "Care of stored vehicles", "a new rifle bracket", "The Army's New Paint System" and many more. Like a discussion of the fuels and lubes used during WW2 and how much gear lube should go in a differential? You can check out an eighteen page, 5MB preview to get an idea of what the book is about.

                                              4 out of 5 stars A step back in time..........2006-03-10

                                              No glossy colour photos of beautifully restored WW2 Jeeps here - but a step back in time to discover a goldmine of details, maintenance tips, stories, anecdotes and old photos that WW2 Jeep fans will love. The reprinted articles and sketches from wartime magazines are great. A touch of humour on nearly every page. A nice mix of factual, technical articles alongside army gossip and chitchat.

                                              If you own an old Jeep, you will love this book. If you don't, you'll just catch a glimpse of another world...it just lacks a bit of colour (olive-drab maybe?) to get the full 5 stars.

                                              5 out of 5 stars Very Interesting and Helpful! .......2006-02-06

                                              This book is basically a collection of articles taken from wartime issues of Army Motors magazine, all concerning the maintenance and care of the MB/GPW military jeep. There are many things in them not covered in the government-issued TM's. The articles also discuss field modifications and have many interesting historical tidbits as well. Unlike the TM's, this is not at all a dry text...many of the articles are actually very humorous, as they were intentionally written that way in order to get the GI's to read them. This book would be a great addition to any MB/GPW owner's jeep library.

                                              Very good book with good photos of WWII era Jeeps. A must for anyone thinking of making one of these a restoration project.

                                              Back in early days of the requirements for a four wheel drive vehicle, before the big war....many plans had been submitted. In the end, Bantam,Ford and Willys were tested...Willys came thru and was accepted...Ford was also into the act, under license and both companies went into production, making one of the best known combat seasoned vehicles of the War, The Jeep.This book gives a run down on the design and planning of the Jeep....right up to 1945...It is a worthy book, well illustrated and deserves a place on the coffee table!

                                              I think the essential military jeep is a nice starter jeep book if you are interested in the GPW/MB. I own a 42 GPW script and I found it a very good starting point in terms of pictures and reference material. It fills in a lot of the details about jeep production etc. It would be excellent for a plastic modeller as well. If you own a MB/GPW, then you will quickly want to move on to the All-American Wonder series by Ray Crowdery, and Larwrence Nabholtz's self-published book.

                                                    Book Description

                                                    "An interesting book for anyone who is interested in the history of venereal disease. It provides some interesting facts to consider about women and venereal disease and makes the reader aware that women have taken a bad rap for many centuries and that bad rap is slowly being transferred to the gays in this age of AIDS. Recommended for all academic and medical libraries."
                                                    --AIDS Book Review Journal

                                                    In 1497 the local council of a small town in Scotland issued an order that all light women--women suspected of prostitution-- be branded with a hot iron on their face. In late eighteenth- century England, the body of the prostitute became almost synonymous with venereal disease as doctors drew up detailed descriptions of the abnormal and degenerate traits of fallen women. Throughout much of history, popular and medical knowledge has held women, especially promiscuous women, as the source of venereal disease. In Feminizing Venereal Disease, Mary Spongberg provides a critical examination of this practice by examining the construction of venereal disease in 19th century Britain.

                                                    Spongberg argues that despite the efforts of doctors to treat medicine as a pure science, medical knowledge was greatly influenced by cultural assumptions and social and moral codes. By revealing the symbolic importance of the prostitute as the source of social disease in Victorian England, Spongberg presents a forceful argument about the gendering of nineteenth- century medicine. In a fascinating use of history to enlighten contemporary discourse, the book concludes with a compelling discussion of the impact of Victorian notions of the body on current discussions of HIV/AIDS, arguing that AIDS, like syphilis in the nineteenth century, has become a feminized disease.

                                                    The study of fossilized dinosaur remains, vertebrate paleontology is a well established discipline, but the discovery and rediscovery of numerous and varied dinosaur footprints and nest sites has spurred a renaissance in the associated field of ichnological research. Dinosaur Tracks and Traces is the first book ever to be devoted to this subject, and it represents the work of seventy noted dinosaur ichnologists. Contributors address the history of science and the relevance of dinosaur ichnology to the interpretation of dinosaur behaviour, paleoecology, paleoenvironments, and evolution. Several new preservation, conservation, and documentation techniques are also presented. The book is richly illustrated and is intended for students and professionals in the areas of paleontology, vertebrate zoology, geology, and paleoenvironmental analysis. The historical aspects of the book and the many site descriptions also make Dinosaur Tracks and Traces appealing to amateur fossil collectors and dinosaur enthusiasts.

                                                    This is the most essential (to serious professional and amateur paleontologists) book on dinosaur tracks that has ever been published, and that is probably the reason it is still in print after eleven years. A few words of review will not do justice to this book, which has 71 contributing authors from all over the world! It includes: Dinosaur tracks and trackways so old that they were produced when only about 3% to 5% of reptiles were dinosaurs; A detailed scientific description (also photos and drawings) and naming of Brontopodus birdi (the tracks and trackways of huge Sauropods of Texas and elsewhere); Detailed photographic, graphic, and geological description of the Briar Site, a huge Sauropod trackway site in Arkansas; Description of Pterosaur (non-dinosaurian flying reptiles)foot structure (skeletal), as it relates to Pterosaur tracks and trackways; Details of magnificent Iguanadontian footprints in the Waelden of East Sussex; Dinosaur foorprints of Western Canada; Comparison of ratite footprints and trackways with tridactyl footprints and trackways reasonably attributed to Mesozoic dinosaurs; An important examination of dinosaur trackway beds of the Gulf Coastal Plain of the U.S.A.; Footprints of 'swimming Sauropods' in Morocco; "The Stance of Dinosaurs and The Cossack Dancer Syndrome"; Detailed analysis of elongate dinosaur tracks (plantigrade tracks), with demonstration that 'creationist' claims that some of these are 'man tracks' is completely wrong; and descriptions of dinosaur tracks found in countries across our planet. Really, what is mentioned here is a mere drop in the knowledge bucket of what this essential book has to offer to those of us who realize that dinosaur trackws are the most direct 'window' from which we can 'view' the paleo-environments, life styles, and dynamic abilities of the living dinosaurs that left an abundance of tracks across our world. Do not make the very serious mistake of not having this volume on your book shelf when, inevitably, it becomes no longer available. Serious about dinosaur track studies? If so, GET THIS BOOK! It is a reference that will be become a treasure over the years.

                                                      This book profiles international labor migration from India as a means to analyze the macroeconomic impact of labor flows and the associated financial flows on the national economy. The author first outlines the dimensions of and the trends in these migration and financial flows. He combines
                                                      evidence from published and unpublished primary sources on migration, remittances, and capital flows to sketch a picture of international labor migration from India that has never before been available. He goes on to analyze the macroeconomic implications and consequences of migration. Through this
                                                      analysis, he assesses the impact of labor and financial flows on output and employment, and of financial flows on savings, investment, and the balance of payments. In conclusion, the author sets out future guidelines which would facilitate the maximization and the socialization of benefits from
                                                      international migration in the context of economic development.
