Judging by the number of people who don't find negative reviews helpful people don't like to hear the truth - that this book is not for beginners. Its a reference book for intemediate users and above and possibly a reference for beginners who are receiving tuition elsewhere - because theres none to be found here.Despit...

This review refers to the BLU-RAY edition ONLY and NOT to the DVD edition.Well having The Terminitor series on DVD and loving them and having recently upgraded to a blu-ray player I decided to take the plunge and upgrade my collection to high definition blu-ray format.Boy, what a mistake that was.Picture quality is AWF...

I don't really understand the problem people have with this album. To be honest I was very wary of buying this so it's one of the last of Kate's that I've bought simply because everyone says this album is difficult if not impossible to get into.Maybe 20 odd years have mellowed the impression it gives, or maybe its just...

This is a brilliant piece of software that is completely reliable in creating an entirely valid backup of an entire partition or drive that will always restore perfectly to a given partition or drive (unlike it's main rival Drive Image 7 which is very, very unreliable.)Provided, however, that you're aware of it's limit...

This is one of the very best things I ever got for my computer. It will partition on the fly, resize, delete as well. It will quick format a large partition as FAT32 (Win2k/XP will only let you format a large drive as NTFS 'cos Microsoft want you move over to that). Copy a partition i.e. make a complete copy of one ont...

I can't believe the number of one star reviews and that this game has only 3 and 1/2 stars rating overall. It's ridiculous.This game is simply a must have. If you loved HL2 you'll love this.

This is a great stroller. It folds easily. Isn't too bulky. When folded with the seat facing away from the parent, it is about the size of our travel system folded. Very easy to push. My husband is 6'2" and the handle bar was perfect for him. My son hates strollers but when we put him in this one he was happy facing us...

Very small pieces, but overall a good game. I wouldn't recommend playing in the car even though it's listed as a "to go" game. You'll lose all your letters.

Didn't realize this isn't actually the game. It's just a card to download the game somewhere else. I don't have xbox live to download it.

This product is more of a cosplay item than something that could actually be worn out daily. It looks like doll hair, so be aware of that. I figured the quality wouldn't be great for the cheap price but I only needed it for a photo shoot with my daughter so it did just fine.

This product is more of a BRIGHT red than an auburn so be careful of that when matching hair color. Other than that, it's as pictured. Pretty thin. Maybe get two packs if your hair is thick and you want it to look even.

I saw this phone case at Urban Outfitters for the 4s and it was priced CRAZY high. I came on here and found this iPhone 5 version for cheap and thought I would give it a try.

The authors present a common sense approach to employee relations that will help companies of any size realize better em...

The Reluctant Swordsman is the first book of a trilogy and is my first exposrue to Dave Duncan. The book reads much like a cross between Saberhagen's Books of Swords and Donaldson's Thomas Covenant series with a bit of Clash of the Titans and the Den of Earth sketch from Heavy Metal thrown in for good measure. The ba...

This book is a continuation of the story that began in "The Reluctant Swordsman" (see my separate review of that book). While the story is very good and I did enjoy reading it, this book feels even more rushed than the first volume. The main plot is often advanced at the expense of adding the kind of color and flavor...

While this short story reads more like a teaser for a longer work, it is appropriately fast paced and is relatively self contained. The story revolves around a typical diplomatic team in over their head who needs to be bailed out by the resident military aide, a non-combatatant who is along just to install and perform...

The author has yet to achieve the ripe old age of the mid-30's, but he tells a pretty good story about what it was like growing up where he did. Once he gets more life experience, maybe he'll add on to this book with more chapters on what it's like being married and having your own kids. My dad certainly didn't talk ...

"The Red Badge of Courage" by Stephen Crane is a good read. One thing that I thought that made the book a little hard to read was that Stephen Crane wrote his book using "the youth", "loud soldier", "tall soldier", and others, instead of the actual character's names. I read this book because it is a classic novel, an...

This is a great book to get some insight to what it took to craft the constitution, at a time when many believed the confederation was JUST fine.

I recently just finished this book and after reading several other reviews I agree completely with Paul Willis. This book was a great read. If you didn't like it, then you shouldn't have read it. A book like this does not decide life or death, this book is meant to be enjoyed, so enjoy it!

There are those that will claim to dislike the film due to one scene (slapping Lester), and totally miss the moral of the story: You need to spend time with your kids, even doing things they think are corny, as you strive to move from a parent-child relationship to an adult relationship.

This account is in my husband's name. I am a woman. I have had this shaver for more than a year. I use it to cut the hair on my legs.

The author used the vernacular of the times, painting the soldiers as heroic saviors, the natives as blood-thirsty devils. At the time of the vanquishing of the Nez Perce, there was no middle ground, and this history is written from that perspective. In our times, we can clearly see that the Nez Perce were just tryin...

This was written by the US Park Service in 1937, just past the height of the Great Depression. The book doesn't have a map, so you need to grab the Glacier Park map from [...] so you can follow along as the book describes where in the park to drive, hike, camp. The book includes prices for horseback riding, lodging r...
