          There have been many articles over the years about the benefits of composting for gardeners, but living in the city without a yard, this reviewer never really thought it was something that would apply to me with my handful of flower boxes and potted plants outside. Joke's on me! This book tells you everything you need to know about composting and household refuse, and most importantly, how to get STARTED, and will be enough to convince you to finally get organized and go for it.

          5 out of 5 stars excellent for beginners.......2004-11-14

          Earlier this summer I developed an interest in gardening, and especially the at-home composting. I found that this book was recommended to me more than any other.

          I picked it up at my local library and was surprised at how thorough it was. After all, who knew that there were so many methods to composting?

          This book helped me to quickly and easily set up my first compost pile, which is coming along great. It even has tips for indoor composters!

          5 out of 5 stars This book is like having a neighbor show us how to compost........1998-11-25

          How do we demystify the simple act of home composting? This easy to read book is the next best thing to having a helpful neighbor show us how to compost. During my past 10 years as a compost evangelist, I have conducted home composting workshops for thousands of people. Backyard Composting is often distributed by sponsoring agencies for public education and included with the purchase of a compost bin. I like the way this book combines basic how-to's and a holistic perspective of how compost fits in to the notion of sustainability, recycling, and permaculture.

            Book Description

            The Oxford Illustrated Encyclopedia of the Universe is an authoritative and accessible reference book, giving a comprehensive overview of astronomy. Every important aspect and all major constituents of the universe are described in alphabetically arranged entries. The volume includes current
            theories of the birth and evolution of the universe and of individual stars and their sometimes catastrophic destruction as supernovae; neutron stars; pulsars; and black holes; coverage of the planets and satellites of the solar system; and planetary exploration. The book explains in clear, lay
            language the fundamental principles of physics-- for example, the theory of relativity--that underpin our understanding of astronomy. The editor has structured the book to provide, through cross-references, an explanation of the more technical entries. Readers are helped to understand complex
            theories through simple, colorful line drawings, as well as more elaborate artwork. Biographical entries on key astronomers add the human dimension to the study of the universe; surveys, scattered over several entries, are given of the centuries of intellectual upheaval and progressive thinking that
            have brought us to the present day. A concise chart of the evolution of astronomy is also included.

                Book Description

                The Life of Albert Sidney Johnston, selected by John H. Jenkins III as one of the basic Texas books, reads like a litany of the important events in the life of the Texas Republic and early statehood through the Civil War. A native Kentuckian and 1826 graduate of West Point, and a veteran of the Black Hawk War, Johnston arrived in Texas in 1836 shortly after the battle of San Jacinto and enlisted as a private in the Texas Army. Soon discovered in the ranks, he was immediately appointed the army's adjutant general. His injury from a duel with Felix Huston later prevented his taking command of the army. In 1838 he was appointed Texas' Secretary of War, and later led the expedition against the Cherokee Indians in East Texas. He commanded the 1st Texas Rifle Volunteers dring the Mexican War and became a regular officer in the U.S. Army--one of the few Texas military men permitted to do so.

                At the beginning of the Civil War in 1861, Johnston was offered a position second in rank only to the aging Winfield Scott, but he refused the Federal government's offer and instead became commander of the Confederacy's Department No. 2, the Western Department. Keenly aware of the military weakness of the South, he issued a call for men at Bowling Green, Kentucky, and formed and drilled his army. On April 6, 1862, Johnston was killed at the battleof Shiloh. The author, Johnston's son, presents "a whole picture of the character of a difficult, generally taciturn man, and defends his actions in a balanced, scholarly manner." The son, having access to all of his father's private correspondence and papers, including his complete Confederate archives, was able to provide anecdotes only a son could know, and was able to persuade many of his father's associates to submit memoirs about him. Never before reprinted since its last publication in 1878, this new volume is of inestimable value and interest to historians and to other readers of Civil War history and early Texas history. This edition contains a new introduction by Charles P. Roland, author of Albert Sidney Johnston: Soldier of Three Republics, and Jefferson Davis's Greatest General: Albert Sidney Johnston (McWhiney Foundation Press, 2000).

                4 out of 5 stars "I will fight them if they were a million!".......2005-01-31

                Albert Sidney Johnston is one of the most interesting generals of the Civil War. Johnston already had an extensive military record when the war began, and President Jefferson Davis (his old West Point classmate) personally saw to it that Johnston was given command of an entire army (the Army of the Mississippi, later the Army of Tennessee).

                The problem with this was that Johnston had never commanded an army before, and now he was faced with defending a 500-mile-long border stretching from eastern kentucky to western Missouri. He had less than 50,000 "available" troops, and many were poorly armed and equipped (some units didn't have any weapons at all!).

                The Union capture of Forts Henry and Donelson in February 1862 paved the way for the fall of Nashville, and soon nearly all of Tennessee was in Union hands. Desperate to reclaim Tennessee for the Confederacy, Johnston planned a bold strike on the Union forces gathered around Shiloh Church in southwest Tennessee.

                On the morning of April 6, 1862, the Confederates charged into the surprised Union camps and for the rest of the day pushed them back towards the Tennessee River. But the Confederate assault had eventually come to a stop, thanks to the strong Union artillery position as well as an exhaustion of ammunition.

                It was the first day of the Battle of Shiloh where Gen. Johnston was killed, the enemy bullet severing his femoral artery in his right leg. Isham Harris, the Confederate governor of Tennessee, was by his side as the general lay dying. Johnston had ignored the wound and had continued directing his troops, but within minutes he bled to death.

                In his "Personal Memoirs", Gen. Ulysses S. Grant wrote, "I do not question the personal courage of General Johnston, or his ability, but he did not win the distinction predicted for him by many of his friends. He did prove that as a general he was over-estimated."

                Had he survived the Battle of Shiloh, Gen. Johnston might have proven otherwise, but for the relatively short time he commanded the Army of the Mississippi he proved to be a brave yet unreliable leader. This book strongly defends his actions and is an in-depth look at his life and long military career. It is highly recommended for those who want to learn more about the first year of the Civil War in Tennessee, and for those wanting to know more about this interesting general.

                3 out of 5 stars An interesting, if prejudiced, biography........1999-05-01

                This life of General Albert Sidney Johnston was written by his son about twenty years after the War Between The States. It covers his entire career, while concentrating upon the events surrounding the fall of Fort Donelson and the battle of Shiloh. It is obviously designed to prove that Gen. Johnston was not to blame for the fall of Fort Donelson, and that he deserves credit for a great strategic success at Shiloh, which was spoiled by his untimely death. Despite the propaganda, I quite enjoyed the book. Gen. Johnston was highly regarded by President Davis. Many thought him to be the equal (or superior) to Lee and that his death was a great tragedy to the Confederacy. The book is somewhat dense reading, containing numerous letters to support the author's case. Many were solicited from the surviving participants after the war.

                  Book Description

                  Enabling Lives provides a look at the disability civil rights movement through an intimate portrayal of the lives of several of its key leaders. Each of the chapters of this book is a separate authorized biography of such prominent figures as Frank Bowe, Tony Coelho, Justin Dart, Judy Heumann, Evan Kemp, and Harold Russell. Enabling Lives provides not only an accurate historical record of key moments in the development of civil rights for individuals with disabilities, but also invites the reader to become acquainted with the individuals who helped to shape the movement and to view history in the making through the eyes of those who were helping to create it. Each of the book's subjects has provided countless hours of interviews, recollections and "war stories" into the making of this important work, helping to create a legacy that hopefully will be carried on by the current and future leaders of the movement.

Rather than prevent risk factors from happening, healthy people must be encouraged to lead lifestyles that will maintain and improve their state of well-being. It is in this context that leisure educators and leisure service professionals are urged to provide leisure activities that promote health.

                                  In this engaging memoir, Robert Rand tells the tale of how through dancing he helped free himself from the grip of panic disorder. Rand was a serious, shy, and intense scholar who had achieved national recognition in a career in writing and radio production. In the midst of his success, panic attacks overwhelmed him. For more than two years, he suffered their debilitating effects; the disease flattened his spirits and stripped him of self-confidence. Then he discovered social dancing, and in particular Cajun and zydeco dance and music. Dancing became a cathartic and liberating endeavor, helping him beat back his panic disorder to discover a world of passion and romance and to gain control of his life.

                                  5 out of 5 stars Far More than it seems.......2005-08-04

                                  This would be a fascinating book for someone interested in overcoming panic disorder. But it is actually so much more. If that phrase were not in the title, it would more accurately reflect the book -- a wonderful entertaining and engaging story about one man's life.
                                  I quickly found myself very interested in this author; being drawn in to care about what was happening to him and how he was dealing with it. It's all about how he dealt with his panic disorder, but the telling is far more entertaining than it sounds. He leaves nothing out either -- the funny stuff, the heart breaks, the embarrassment, the girls and the sex. Often, I couldn't put the book down until I had finished a chapter.
                                  Rand's descriptive writing is awesome -- rich and flavorful and entertaining. It shows that even a calm, studious, serious fellow can have a very lively and engaging life.
                                  In addition, I found his dealing with the racial issues very frank and refreshing. (By way of explanation, Rand took up Zydeco dancing, which is from the Black Cajun culture of Louisiana and he spent considerable time there in the backcountry.)
                                  Overall, it was an excellent read. I highly recommend it.

                                      Book Description

                                      Amidst the financial turmoil of the Asian economies, the most severe flooding in 50 years and domestic resistance to radical change, China is boldly moving forward with new reforms geared to dismantling state-owned enterprises, revamping the financial sector and downsizing a lethargic administrative bureaucracy. In Business Opportunities in Northeastern China, the twelfth volume in the Nanyang Business Report Series, the editors untangle the massive reform challenges embedded in China's northeastern industrial heartland which are crucial to sustaining the country's domestic growth.

                                      This book addresses the unique regulatory and market reforms facing the central government, unparalleled anywhere, but which offer business and investment opportunities spanning new capital, technology, multimedia and human resources. ns, highlights their global competitiveness and hub location attributes before it synthesises various issues underlying the East-West values debate and the imminent linkage of trade to social values and environmental protection. Throughout, these topics are braided with policy implications emanating from the agendas of major world organisations such as WTO, ILO and the World Bank, among others.

                                      U.S.-ASEAN relations depict a remarkable partnership that is vibrant, comprehensive and dynamic - a major globtructure realignment within the "Bohai Ring" and the government's commitment to boost, in every manner, the vast domestic rural economies. Business Opportunities in Northeastern China unveils the reality of these challenges and, therefore, is an essential reference for potential international investors, global entrepreneurs and traders, professional and governmental agencies, researchers and students.

                                      4 out of 5 stars Excellent Book for Introduction to Environmental Science.......2007-03-17

                                      I was asked to evaluate ths for the textbook selection committee at a local high school for possible use as the text book for an environmental science class next year. Since my degree is in Environmental Science, and I have done a lot of work with environmental education, I have read a large number of environmental science books and have seen the good, bad and worst of books on the market.

                                      At first I just planned to skim the book, but after reading a few pages I decided to look at the book more closely, and I was impressed with what I saw. The book is well written in clear, easy to understand language, using a good amount of well done graphs, charts and photos. The layout, in addition, was good, making the book flow in an orderly manner.

                                      The information in the book was excellent, and covered the entire range, as much as is possible in one book, of environmental science. The biology and chemistry were integrated nicely and flowed smoothly.

                                      I have rated this book as four stars only because I feel the authors didn't cover the section on renewable energy as well as I would have liked. The book tended to move through the subject rather quickly, offering only a limited view of what can be done to eliminate the use of fossil fuels. In all other ways this book was superior to many I have read.

                                      I would highly recommend this for an introduction course in college, and also think it would bean excellent choice for a text at the AP or regular high school level, provided the students had enough science background to be able to understand the science. I even believe that a motivated home schooled student could study from this book and do quite well in the subject. Overall, one of the best introductory text books I've had the pleasure of reading.

                                      5 out of 5 stars Environment by John Allif.......2004-05-22

                                      The thing that I like the most about this book is the way chemistry is incorporated into the sciences that relate to environment. It has all the basic chemistry skills required for one to be able to relate to environment at the introductory level.

                                      The Appendix on Environmental Chemistry is very well presented. It has most of the concepts that one require in this course. It is written in short and to the point to avoid confusion, but with high clarity. That is what students appreciate. Students do not need to refer to other textbooks. The material includes all that a student need to understand the basic concepts of chemsitry as applied to environmental science.

                                      The format is outstanding. It is best suited for students taking Environmental Science. It just delivers materials of basic interest with excellent problems and things to ponder sections. The illustrations are superb.

                                      Students are often frustrated with voluminous information. They usually buy a book and are turned off and do not read it. They need concise and just the right stuff in it. This book has that quality. Students would love it and I am glad it is on the market.

                                      It was a delight reading this study guide. Excellent job! It just does a good service to students.
