Girls Don't Need Fairy Tales.......2000-10-12
It always bothered me that my daughters were so delighted with Cinderella and Snow White... the saving grace in the form of a fairy godmother or prince charming just sets girls up to feel the need to be rescued. Dr. Russianoff's book is one that allows all women to be "real". To take control, to accept responsibility for our own happiness in life and in love, to feel a deep sense of pride and self-contentment in ourselves is something that we can only give ourselves. Looking for someone to fill a void and make us happy always leaves us feeling sorely disappointed. I was very saddened to hear of the Dr's death, but am thankful for the words of wisdom left to us. My dog-eared copy of this book will gladly be passed down to both of my daughters as they approach maturity.
Wow - a perfect inspiration for every woman.......1999-05-14
This book has helped me through the good times as well as the bad, inspiring me to be more at peace with myself. It helped me to finally realise that I am something without a man - and an awesome something at that. Thankx Penelope for enabling me to get an outlook on reality - away from the subjective world I've been enclosed in for so many years. A fantastic book that every girl and woman should read - it should be mandatory!

I think this BOOK is great due to the women like me who needs to know what we are doing and Why.

Good monograph on Eckhart.......2006-11-15
McGinn, also the author of the famous 'History of Christian Mysticism', gives a good scholarly overview and analysis of Eckhart's mystical ideas.
McGinn studies Eckhart using the idea of the 'ground', the term Eckhart uses in many sermons to describe the intimate union of God with the human intellect or soul. He also explores Eckhart's ideas about God and the Godhead, the 'overflow' of God into the Trinity, God's creation of all things in the eternal 'now', the historical context of his thought and trial for heresy, and also his intellectual influences.
In my view McGinn falls a bit short in some places (he tends to skim over some important aspects of the master too quickly, perhaps due to constraints in relation to time) but overall this is probably the best critical study of Eckhart currently available. As a careful critical scholar McGinn doesn't go overboard or read into Eckhart his pet theological ideas (as many tend to do with this polyvalent thinker) and emphasizes the importance of understanding Eckhart as the teacher and preacher. This work is an essential purchase for any student of Eckhart's thought.
Scholarly, yes...........2003-02-28
But no Eckhart! Based on the title, I was surprised to find that the book is all analysis, with no intact samples of Meister Eckhart's writing at all.
I believe that the main quality of Eckhart's writing is, as the author states, his use of the language. We don't get that here, as everything is paraphrased, or chopped into very small quotes by the author.
It is like facing a wall, and listening to someone tell us about a sunset, or, more exactly, perhaps, listening to someone describe Rumi's poetry without giving us any.
The power, the ooomph, the emotional and spiritual impact of Eckhart has been pulverized into an endless series of philosophical arguments.
This seems to me to miss the point in a major way.
To experience Eckhart, read Eckhart. "Wandering Joy" delivers admirably.
If you've already experienced Eckhart, and you want a more in-depth "scholarly" analysis, read this book by Bernard McGinn.
Scholarly AND clear.......2002-01-11
This book represents one of those only too rare marriages of high scholarship and unambiguous clarity. While the concepts discussed are often difficult, Bernard McGinn's explanations and discussions regarding them are easily followed. The reader has to contend only with his own limitations in dealing with subtle and abstract subject matter. Bernard McGinn's fine scholarship and great skills of communication serve him well in discussing, for example, Eckhart's use of the multifaceted word "ground" in terms of its relationship to God and the soul in a way that reveals and sets apart the radical nature of Eckhart's preaching. Of course Professor McGinn does equally well with other aspects of the great Meister's spirituality such as his teachings on the "Eternal Birth" and his "metaphysics of flow". Often a work of this genre is too erudite to be readily accessible. This book is unique in that it is eminently scholarly with absolutely no compromise to its accessibility. Or we could we say, it is unique in that it is eminently accessible with no compromise to its erudtion. Either way we might say it, Professor McGinn shows an uncommon gift for which serious students and more casual readers alike will be grateful. At the ripe old age of 61 years, this is the first book this reviewer has read whose impact led him to actually send an email of gratitude to its author! For those who seek a better understanding of Meister Eckart, this book is simply indispensable.
THE standard reference on Eckhart in English!!.......2001-10-17
Bernard McGinn's new book comes as no surprise: as usual it is an excellent, scholarly presentation of the subject at hand, and with Eckhart as the subject, the reader is in good hands with McGinn. This books started off as a continuation of McGinn's history of Western mysticism, but ended up being a monograph on Eckhart. Mcginn's familiarity with the sources, his use of both the Latin and German works of Eckhart, and his detailed knowledge of the secondary literature in German, French, and English will make this the standard English-language reference book on Eckhart's mystical philosophy for years to come. Any serious student of Western mysticism should alerted that this is an important work. My only regret is that McGinn does not deal with the Eckhart-beguine connection much at all. Perhaps when this book is revised and condensed to form part of the next volume in his history of mysticism series, this aspect will be also be considered.
Ground breaking for Eckhart studies.......2001-08-14
This is a fresh and indepth interpretation of Eckhart's mysticism, written by the one of the leading authorities on him. For Eckhart studies this book stands alone, and will surley set the standard in years to come. It is scholarly, so it is perhaps not for the casual reader. However, for anyone really seriously interested in Eckhart this book cannot be ignored. Highly recommended!

Book Description
As a college freshman, Molly Worthen wrote the words "Charles Hill is God" on the inside cover of her History and Politics notebook. Hill was her professor, a former diplomat and behind-the-scenes operator who shaped foreign policy in his forty-year career as an adviser to Kissinger, Shultz, and Boutros-Ghali, among others. Hill's Grand Strategy class (taught with John Lewis Gaddis and Paul Kennedy) developed a cult following at Yale, and Worthen soon found herself caught in his aura. Feeling the seductive pull of a gurusomeone who reduces a messy world to its essence, offering a beguiling set of principles to live byshe was determined to get inside Hill's head. Surprisingly, Hill granted Worthen full access to his life, meticulously documented in over 25,000 pages of notes on everything from Iran-contra to the dissolution of his marriage. And Worthen in turn applied all the lessons Hill taught her to the study and understanding of him. In the end, she was forced to reconcile Hill's godlike presence with the person she came to realize was brilliant but fallible. The result is a genre-busting bookone that charts the intricate relationship between biographer and subject, student and teacher, even as it illuminates a momentous period in American history. Psychologically astute and masterfully written, it lays bare the joy as well as the heartache of coming to know someone you once revered. Even more profoundly, it portrays a young woman's search to find her own voice as she and her entire generation struggle to figure out how the world really works.

Thank you Molly.......2006-03-17
For a wonderful read about a man I know, but thank you even more for articulating the hugh problem at the heart of academia today -- political correctness that has left a whole generation of students with a disfunctional inner compass. Thank God Charlie Hill decided to teach at Yale after he left the Foreign Service!

A new kind of biography by a promising new star.......2006-02-28
Charles Hill is the consumate man behind the curtain - Worthen writes a bio worthy of close examination - her writing is just lovely and shows her wisdom. - Great job.
Hitting the nail.......2006-02-24
This biography is the first I've read of a man I've had the privilege to know. It's also the first review on Amazon I've felt compelled to write. I applaud Worthen's ability to peg Charlie Hill. Her characterizations are 100% in my experience of man who has lived a compelling life. I recommend this book to all students of foreign policy.
Yes, you can marvel at the fact that a professor buys coffee at Starbucks. I feel sorry for those who've forgotten that.
Nothing Lost, Nothing Gained.......2006-02-22
I'm sorry but I've read this book twice now and I don't know when I've had a more amateur read. I'm with Publishers Weekly on this one, this author is smart and clever and in love with her own voice but she's not a natural writer, and her apparent infatuation with Professor Hill gets tiresome after only twenty-five pages. I can imagine that students who went to Yale and took courses with Hill might enjoy reading about him. Will anyone else? His family, perhaps. To the rest of us, even after Worthen's comprehensive look at his career, he seems like a nobody who somehow wound up at the top echelons of a corrupt government and now runs pretentious power courses from a cushy academic post. Worthen gives us a charming picture of campus life at New Haven, and how a lottery system insures everyone an equal shot at studying with Professor Hill.
I got the impression also that Hill was flirting with Worthen continuously, but that his passion for Norma was making him "walk the line" as Johnny Cash used to say. Hill certainly seems unabashed by Worthen's curiosity about his romantic and sex life, even urging her on to ask him some unseemly questions even Bill Clinton might have balked at, though I didn't catch if he wears boxers or briefs.
The revelations about Iran/Contra are minor ones, and debatable. I hate to break it to you, Molly Worthen, but your emperor has no clothes.
The Grand Strategy course he teaches, she notes breathlessly, culminates in a "Crisis Simulation" day in which students are thrown into an imaginary crisis like an outbreak of Ebola or Muslim terrorists occupying the Senate chambers. It's like a Universal Studios tour ride putting you, the tourist, into Jack Bauer's shoes on "24." And out of such theme parks our foreign policy is born.
A great read!.......2006-01-17
This is a fascinating book. Worthen was still an undergraduate at Yale when she began it, and she brings both the idealism of youth and a mature writing style to the page. Besides being a fly on the wall at some of the most important foreign policy events of the 20th century, the reader also gets an inside view of one of Yale University's most elite communities -- the Grand Strategy program, which trains future leaders in the art of statecraft. Followers of contemporary political events will be particularly interested, since two of the Grand Strategy professors -- John Lewis Gaddis and Charles Hill -- have close contacts with, and regularly advise the Bush Administration. This is no tawdry expose of secret societies (a la Secrets of the Tomb), but an insightful look into how an experienced diplomat mentors some of the most accomplished students in our country. It also is a moving coming of age story, as Worthen learns that her mentor is as flawed and human as the famous leaders he counseled.

A great read enlivens tale of electron discovery and use.......2007-05-29
A Great Read
We've all read bits and pieces of the historical events that began with the first astonishing encounters with seemingly magical electronic effects, leading to today's equally astonishing electronics technology. But author Camenzind has given us a well-written, energetic, and interesting trek from high point to high point of this long history including, not just the story-board facts but much of the personal triumphs and tragedies that accompanied the all-too-human participants. If any technical historical narrative rises to the level of "couldn't put it down," this is it. (And you don't need to know much about electricity to enjoy and digest it)
It is popular today for a successful person to attribute his success to all the mistakes he made, and learned from. Camenzind provides ample discussion of dead ends on which people wasted some if not all of their lives or their fortunes. These occasional sidetracks do not detract in any way from the rapid thrust of the narrative, but serve to enhance our wonder that all of this progress was able to take place at all.
Although the reader may glean that this mighty accomplishment of humanity is a singular event, not able to be repeated, I am betting that in 50 years or so when our environmental and energy problems have been solved, a future Camenzind will be chronicling the miraculous way it came about. Undoubtedly the story will be as fascinating and captivating as the one Mr. Camenzind has so skillfully presented to us.

Fun Science for us Social Science Types.......2007-04-19
An informative and captivating tour of science focusing on the people that have contributed to our knowledge of electricity. Surprise! These are interesting -- and sometimes satisfyingly odd -- people.
The books shows how scientific advancement comes from the work of real people. Its stories are clear, easy to read, and enjoyable.
I knew "Morse code" was named after Samuel Morse, but "volt", "amps", and "galvanic responses"??! If learning science was as fun as learning about the scientists, maybe I would have taken that 8:00 am chem class.
Fascinating Reading.......2007-04-13
This book describes the history of the electron, the "almost nothing", from the days it was unknown until our present time. Luckily the author writes in a language that any layman can easily understand, without boring the expert either. Thanks to clear explanations and many illustrations, the functioning of magnets, cathode-ray-tubes or transistors becomes less of a mystery.
However the technical aspect of this enormous development over the last century is only one part of the subject. We probably all remember from our school days what a Faraday cage is, what Ohm's law says or that Edison might have something to do with grandpa's gramophone. But do we know anything about Mr. Faraday, Mr. Ohm or Mr. Edison; their life, personality, character? Now here is what makes this reading so interesting: Hans Camenzind tells us all about more than 30 people whose inventions and discoveries contributed so much to the growth of the little "almost nothing" to the prominent role it plays today. Suddenly these persons come alive and we read about their achievements, ambitions and frustrations, successes and tragedies. And this very human side also includes some humorously presented little episodes.
All in all, this is an enjoyable and fascinating book and I believe I will not be the only one to have read it from A to Z in one go.

Book Description
In his wry and funny memoir, Edward Ugel tells the story of America's addiction to the lottery from an astonishing angle.
At age twenty-six, Ed found himself broke, knee-deep in gambling debt, and moving back into his parents' basement. It all changed, however, when he serendipitously landed a job as a salesman for The Firm--a company that offered up-front cash to lottery winners in exchange for their prize money, often paid in agonizingly small annual payments, some lasting up to twenty-five years. For the better part of the ensuing decade, Ed spent his time closing deals with lottery winners, making a lucrative and legitimate--if sometimes not-so-nice--living by taking advantage of their weaknesses . . . weaknesses he knew all too well.
Ed met hundreds of lottery winners and saw up-close the often hilarious, sometime sad outcome when great wealth is dropped on ordinary people. Once lottery winners realized their "dream-come-true" multimillion jackpots were not all that they were cracked up to be, Ed would knock on their door, offering them the cash they wanted-and often desperately need. This cash sometimes came at a high price, but winners were rarely in a position to walk the other way. As Ed learned, few of them had the financial savvy to keep up with the lottery-winner lifestyle. In fact, some just wanted their old lives back.
A charmingly neurotic gambler, Ed traveled deep into the heart of the country where he discovered the American Dream looks a lot like a day at the casino. And Ed knows casinos. In fact, his own taste for gambling gave him a unique insight into lottery winners: he intimately understood their mindset, making it that much easier to relate to them. And like lottery winners, Ed struggled to find balance in his own life as his increasing success earned him a bigger and bigger salary. Even as he relished his accomplishments, he grappled with the question: "If you are good at something that is bad for some people, does that make you a bad person?"
Ed Ugel takes the readers inside the captivating world of lottery winners and shows us how lotteries and gambling have become deeply inscribed in every aspect of American life shaping our image of success and good fortune. Money for Nothing is a witty, wise, and often outrageously funny account of high expectations and easy money.

Shark feeds on lottery winners.......2007-10-09
This is the story of how a man finds a way to earn a good living.
He hard sells lottery winners, who are sometimes financially clueless, on his company's lump-sum deals. He chronicles the history of state lotteries, stressing how math-challenged the players are and how eager for revenues the states are. But the bulk of the book is an uncomfortable lesson in high-pressure selling of a product you really shouldn't buy.
He even explains how one poor sap asked how much money he would receive for signing away his lottery millions on the way to sign the papers!
Sarcastic and frankly smartass in tone, this is anything but a hilarious book. One good thing though -- it may keep readers away from lotteries.
Self-Loathing and Salesmanship.......2007-10-05
In this volume, Edward Ugel can't decide if he should be ashamed of himself making a damn good living bilking lottery winners (he should be) or celebrate his successful sales techniques.
The book wanders back and forth between a business text on how to sell, ("meet the customer's needs"--now there's an insight), a history of lotteries (wikipedia, maybe), a look at the pressures on people who win the various state lotteries and then become so desperate for cash they sell their annuity (for pennies on the dollar, althought Ugel never does say how much they get) and how the author mispent his own time and (large amounts of) money). That was Ugel's own form of lottery winning. He took in plenty of money as commissions for signing up these "cash-poor" winners; but inside he knew he was more like these "winners" too, because he couldn't keep any of it either.
As the book fizzles out into an account of his own gambling in Vegas and Atlantic City, he becomes one of the loser-winners he cashes out. He can't handle the finance and his own bad habits.
Too Many Hands, Not Enough Soap.......2007-09-29
Talk about mixed feelings. On one hand, I was disappointed that Money for Nothing didn't spend more time describing the experiences of lottery winners. There's some of that in this book, but not much. On the other hand, I was fascinated to read about an entire industry that I had no idea even existed.
Then there's the tone of the book. On one hand it often reads like something from the 1950s, a hard-driving salesman who parties in Vegas and motivates himself by screaming "I am King Kong!". But on the other hand, Ugel also sounds like a nerdy Gen X-er who thinks too much, like someone from This American Life, a show he's written for.
Ugel works for a company that pays lottery winners a lump sum for their future payments. He never divulges how much the company pays the lottery winners, because they pay as little as they can get away with. It depends on how much the lottery winner needs cash and how skilled the salesman is. Using California as an example, let's say you win a jackpot of 26 million dollars. If you take the annual payment option, the Califonia Lottery will pay you an average of a million dollars (before taxes) per year for 26 years. The Lottery doesn't actually have the 26 million now, but if they invest about 13 million (depending on current interest rates) now, they'll be able to pay you 26 million over 26 years. If you opt for a lump sum payment, they simply give you that 13 million now. Ugel's company does something like that for winners who don't have the lump sum option in their state or didn't when they won. He describes it as a service for people who want it. It would be a service, just like cashing checks or lending money can be a service. Except when it's those usurious check cashing places in the strip malls or loan sharks that charge exorbitant rates.
So on one hand, it's disgusting that Ugel spent years smooth-talking people into giving up their future winnings on some fast cash now, but on the other hand these lottery winners squandered a lot of money if they're so hard up they need to even talk to a Ugel or his oily colleagues.
I'm not the only one who's conflicted about this. Ugel spends much of the book justifying the business of buying out lottery winnings for pennies on the dollar. He also spends a lot of time wallowing in self-hatred for having being so successful at such a slimy occupation.
At one point Ugel describes having a ritual fried chicken dinner before closing on a big deal. "I was nervous and my palms were sweating. The sweat mixed with the grease from the chicken...I was a mess. I had to get out of there. I stopped into the bathroom and compulsively washed my hands, soap and water, soap and water, soap and water, trying to get rid of the grease." After reading Money for Nothing, I know how he feels. Keep scrubbing, Ed.
Money for Something.......2007-09-25
Ed Ugel has a cracking wit and great stories that will have you grinning as you read. For people fascinated by the American Dream, lotteries, get-rich-quick scams, and the good 'ole stock market, this is a worthy, entertaining, and strangely educational read.
Writing for nothing.......2007-09-25
I am probably one of the only people to disagree with the otherwise glowing reviews of this book, but I found the writing bad, and the topic painfully boring. I had an advanced reader copy and I really wasn't impressed with this first time author. I thought this would be a great book about lottery winners and their struggles. It is self absorbed study of a young, very immature man's probelms with his own gambling habit and apparent lack of principles. I really had to make an effort to read this one. Just not great. Dull reading and unfortunate topic matter--how to take advantage of ignorant people.

A practical and easy-to-understand assessment.......2004-03-04
Nothing's Wrong: A Man's Guide To Managing His Feelings by family therapist and public speaker David Kundtzis an impressively instructive self-help guide written especially for men to dealing with their feelings in a productive manner. The advice and insights within these pages are neither "mushy" nor intended to in any way discourage the worthy and traditionally masculine goals of protector, provider, and role model, but rather will substantively help men of all faiths and cultures lead happier and healthier lives, and less likely to be struck down by stress-related ills. A practical and easy-to-understand assessment, Nothing's Wrong is very highly recommended reading.
Half Life or Whole Life.......2004-01-24
When asked, "What's wrong?" men usually respond with "Nothing's wrong" effectively negating all further discussion. This response also prevents men from working through their feelings. Generally speaking, men do not know what to do with their feelings. Society accepts only a narrow amount of emotional expression from men -- mostly anger and aggression. Thus, men tend to be uncomfortable with their own feelings and the feelings of others. Because of this, men fail to learn how to identify and express their feelings in a healthy way. Put simply, men are emotional illiterates. This is tragic, for it keeps men from living a whole life. "Not to be aware of one's feelings, not to understand them or know how to use or express them, is worse than being blind, deaf or paralyzed. Not to feel is not to be alive" -- (Dr. David Viscott). Men need emotional as well as intellectual intelligence. "Emotional intelligence is 'awareness of one's own feelings as they occur' -- it is being smart in dealing with your feelings" (p. 39). Thinking and feeling are not at odds, but are complementary. Thinking leads to feeling just as feeling leads to thinking (p. 40). In order to live a whole life, men must notice their feel, identify their feelings, and express their feelings -- regardless of whether they are weak or strong. Feelings are not wrong (they just are) nor are they feminine. Sporting events are not the only place where one is allowed to feel strongly! This is a great introduction to an important topic that men must embrace or risk living only half a life!

Sad but the truth.......2007-05-31
I know the author and I was kind of shocked when he told me he had wrote a book. So i picked it up and just recently read it last night and it was soo real and down 2 earth. I felt for Shantell b/c every time something came there was always bad. Even though i was sad how everything turned out its da truth and the way her cards were dealt. When i see Blake imma ask why not a good ending instead of sad but overall excellent book. Only 193 pages but well worth the money gets to the point no excessive writing
The Domino Effect.......2007-03-21
We meet Shantell Bryant as a child and soon realize that life for her is not a walk in the park. Instead, very early on she has to deal with a drug addicted mother and an abusive older brother. The things she goes through in her childhood shape the rest of her life including the way she carries herself, the choices she makes, and the way she behaves. Shantell is in a fight for a better life and will stop at nothing to insure that she and her daughter have the best.
I enjoyed reading this book. The characters were dynamic and all people that I could either relate to or reminded me of people that I know. That's exactly what I look for in a book, and I certainly got it!
Pop, Lock and Drop It.......2007-03-19
The cards are stacked against Shantell Bryant. Living in the dangerous Piedmont Courts with a mother addicted to drugs, Shantell was forced to navigate herself from childhood to womanhood. Somewhere along the way, she became a single mother. Determined to make a better life for herself and her daughter and without an education, she relies on her most valuable asset...her body. Will it be enough?
All or Nothing is a mediocre read. There's nothing here that we haven't read before. Girl lives in the hood. Girl gets pregnant. Girl starts stripping as a way out. Like I said, nothing new, but I was hoping that this author would do something differently to make his story stand out from the rest. Unfortunately he did not. The time-line was confusing, the ending anti-climactic, and this book is in need of a good editor. All or Nothing makes for a quick, minimally entertaining read.

In the Eye of the Storm.......2007-03-02
Shantell Bryant used to be a happy child. She'd sing and play in her room and was content. Unfortunately, that happiness would be forever ruined. Victimized, deserted, and left for the vultures to feed off of, Shantell is alone fighting this cold, bitter world. Would she be able to trek such a grueling excursion?
I was vigilant in my search for Blake Karrington's debut novel, All Or Nothing What Wouldn't You Do To Get Ahead. When I couldn't immediately find it, that should've been a clue. The story flows effortlessly when detailing drugs, sports and womanizing, it constantly repeats when speaking of Shantell, the young woman the story is about. While this story is far from unique, I had hoped that Blake would add something unique to it, therefore making it his own. Tweaking, especially in the editing department, is desperately needed.
