Job's Body: A Handbook for Bodywork
This Book is Pure Poetry of the Human Anatomy, Not your average A&P Book, Reading this book is like reading a good Novel.

Perfection!
Absolutely the best bodywork book I've ever read, bar none. I read the first edition of this book about 15 years ago, and it was a big eye-opener for me; I saw the body in a whole new light, it gave me things to think about and apply for years. I wish Deane Juhan would write a lot more books.

Great read for anyone interested in healthcare and bodywork
Interesting perspective on how the human body is put together. Well-written and enjoyable to read, yet full of detailed descriptions.

I can't wait to try some of Carr's Ideas
I've just recently become interested in Polaroid manipulations and transfers. I can't imagine a better book on the subject.

Carr covers all the technical details including a review of every Polaroid Daylab slide printer ever made -- with step-by-step, illustrated instructions. She also covers a TON of creative techniques to get the juices flowing. Lot's of full-color pictures of these different techniques makes it fun to just flip throught the book to see the art.

I also like the way she uses Photoshop to supplement her manually manipulated images. Lots of just-technical-enough ideas in the Photoshop chapters.

I highly recommend this book.

Outstanding Book
You will not be disappointed. It is lavishly and beautifully illustrated and printed. The text is clear and concise. It doesn't cover the basics of Polaroid transfer but then it doesn't claim to.

Companion Volume & Going Digital
This is a great book ! You simply must add this to your collection ! "Polaroid Manipulations" picks up where Kathleen's wonderful first book, "Polaroid Transfers", left off, offering comprehensive, uncomplicated new techniques for Image and Emulsion Transfers. Additionally exciting is learning about the SX-70 manipulation process. The Digital applications section is so clear and straight forward--it helped reduce my confusion about how to scan my Polaroid art, use Photoshop to enhance it and printing options available. Polaroid manipulation goes high tech, and Kathleen Carr is our guide.

Sounds like NAPRAPATHY
Dr Oakley Smith developed the science of Naprathy over 100 years ago. The information and techniques sounds a lot like NAPRAPATHY.
There is a National College in Chicago that teaches this science.

Great book, great explanations, great reading
Most people are familiar with the spinal manipulations of Chiropractors and Osteopaths but most are unfamiliar with somatic techniques and how they differ. Instead of quick movements to "adjust" the back, it involves slower techniques designed to help the body to realign the vertebrae correctly using its own natural actions and reactions. Jeffrey Maitland has thoroughly researched the area of spinal manipulation and with the help of Chiropractors, Osteopaths, and Rolfers has put together this text on techniques that can be understood by anyone. The book is designed for those who want a better understanding of their back, how different problems originate, and how to resolve those problems. This does not mean that you will never need to see an Osteopath or Chiropractor, but you may be able to resolve many basic problems yourself. Of course you can't work on your own back and so the techniques better enable you to help others. These are simple, slow, safe, body aware techniques and that makes this a highly recommended book for anyone who wants to understand the back, how it works, and how to live with theirs or those who want to add additional techniques to their knowledge base.

Spinal Manipulation Made Simple
Working as a physical therapist and acupuncturist with some education in manual therapy/osteopathy,a couple of years working with dry-needling and bodywork on triggerpoints, I find this little book extremely useful in daily practice.
Shifting from high-velocity techniques to these soft-tissue/assisted release- techniques ,gives very good predictable results with greatly reduced risk of tissue-damage on our patients.
Thorough explanations of spinal mechanics, testing and release-tecniques for joint fixations in the totalcolumna gives any bodyworker/therapist the possibility to release painful facet restrictions after a very short study/workperiod.This little seemingly modest text should give value for several expensive workshops and courses.
Releasing the overlying triggerpoints in paravertebral muscles simultaneously giving the fixed joint an impetus towards normal position is elegant, efficient and largely as painfree as any release of triggerpoints. Thank you very much Jeffrey Maitland!


Politics in Healing: The Suppression & Manipulation of American Medicine

Politics In Healing
Daniel Haley's book, "Politics In Healing", reveals a deeply disturbing portrait of agencies and organizations created to protect the health of the American People actually contributing to their unnecessary death. By embracing toxic chemotherapies and radiation therapies that are known to be carcinogenic, despite little proven success over the last fifty years in curing and preventing cancer, while actively supressing research and objective clinical trials on extremely promising non-toxic therapies, The National Cancer Institute (NCI) and United States Food & Drug Administration (FDA) indirectly kill more people each week than the almost 3,000 people who died on September 11 2001 in the World Trade Center and Pentagon terrorist attacks.

On the surface this book documents twelve different non-toxic therapies that showed anecdotal or clinical benefit in slowing or reversing cancer. The discoverers and early advocates of each were persecuted and the therapy suppressed. The book really documents a cancer in our medical and government bureacracies that needs to be exposed to the killing radiation of public scrutiny and legally prosecuted for any duplicity and fraud it has perpitrated on a trusting and unsuspecting American People.

It is fairly well known that approximatley 10,000 people die each week in the United States from cancer. It is less well known that over 3,000 Americans die each week from FDA approved prescription medication prescribed appropriately and taken according to instructions. That is over four times as many people as died on September 11, 2001 each and every week.

The evidence presented in this book leads to the inescapable conclusion that the NCI, FDA and AMA are either totally incompetent or they have actively and maliciously sought to continue poisoning cancer patients rather than permit the discovery and free investigation of non-toxic therapies that have, in many cases, shown remarkable abilities to slow and reverse cancer.

I predict that history will look back on Medicine in the United States in the second half of the 20th Century and marvel at the wanton greed and barbaric practices that have prescribed fear without hope and death by poison and mutilation, while manipulating the political and legal sytems to maintain their unholy monopoly. As we look back in horror at the holocaust in Germany during World War II, future historians will wonder why good people did not step forward to stop the senseless slaughter. Despite spending more money per person on healthcare in the United States than any other country in the world, the people in at least nineteen other countries live longer. This book documents how the NCI, FDA, and AMA may contribute to this apparent contradiction. Many of these countries have embraced non-toxic cancer therapies suppressed in the US.

The "Politics in Healing" will open your eyes. The "Politics in Healing" is a clarion call to action. We must take responsibility for our own health. Knowledge is Power!!

LETS ROLL!!!

What if NAZI's ran the FDA and AMA?
We take our freedoms for granted, but there is very little Liberty in the USA when it comes to Medicine. This book reads like a cross between Science Fiction and THE FIRM/PELICAN BRIEF. Only it is not fiction. Haley's book is exceptionally well researched (I know because he contacted me while writing it. Helooked into the Pauling cure at www.PaulingTherapy.com, and decided not to use it. Possibly because so far there are no public court records.)

I could not put the book down. The stories in Haley's book, backed by court documents, are stories the AMA and FDA thought you would never learn and hope you will soon forget. You will not forget, but you will understand why there is such a strong Alternative Medicine and Health Freedom movement in America and world-wide. There are heros in this book. And there are people who in their greed and depravity have caused the premature death of millions upon millions. People that head major Institutions. It can't be true. It can't be true you will find your self saying over and over and over. Each case worse than the last. You begin to understand that the people who decide what is "legitimate" science might not have your best interest in mind. Duh!?!

A Physician's Perspective
No words can justify this amazing book. Daniel Haley has done an absolutely phenomenol job of painting a true and accurate picture regading the past and present of traditional medicine and the suppression of innovation and advances in medicine. I challenge anyone to pick up this book and try and put it down after reading 15 pages. Some say that the two largest industries in the US are crime and medicine. Others say that these two industries are the one and the same. After reading Haley's book, and from my own experience as a physician heavily involved in research as well as treating patients with cancer and heart disease who have failed conventional therapies, I can say that Daniel Haley, if anything, understated the truth. A must read for all who seek the truth in medicine and especially for all doctors, regardless of their medical field of interest or their current status/position in their respective careers.


The Quest for Authentic Power: Getting Past Manipulation, Control, and Self Limiting Beliefs

A useful review of mental models of power
The author defines 'Authentic Power' as "the power to consistently obtain what we truly desire" (which is in itself a somewhat question begging definition, but strongly reminiscent of what Senge and others call 'personal mastery'). The book falls most closely into the growing field of books concerned with personal development, with a business audience in mind. It provides a useful review of mental models of power and how they shape our reality and a guide to building power and exercising power through self-empowerment.
Though useful, it does not in my opinion replace Hillman: Kinds of Power: Guides to its Intelligent Uses. (1995)

fresh ideas
When I first read this book in the Soring of 2002, I likened it to opening a window and filling my lungs with fresh air. I saw patterns, limits, stumbling blocks I had known and experienced as old style power and could detach from those power sources, even if they came from others.

New possibilities, strengths and creative solutions followed with a new found intentionality for choices made. In 2003 I am convinced the book is invaluable for leadership in volunteerism, and work, and for personal life changes. Now I am pulling the book's ideas forward again to help do some difficult staff training and development.

This is not a long book, but an important read for new perspectives.

M.J. Franklin, Volunteer Leader, Adult Educator, Grandparent and Spouse.

Simple, Straight Forward and Effective
Ross has done a masterful job in bringing together concepts that affect all areas of our lives. You can apply the ideas contained in these pages to improve your home life, work or occupation, social and above all your spiritual growth. Manipulation and control currently breed resentment in those it is being perpetrated upon. Most people don't realize they are doing it. To analyze your own behavior and stop the manipulation will not only improve your own quality of life, but it will also affect those around and close to you. I highly recommend this book!

regular expression for dummies
if you ever wanted to learn about regular expression and string manipulation, but didn't want spend alot of time for it. This is the book for you. The book is somewhat concise which makes it as an easy reference. This can be worrying for the beginner beginner in .net but if this is not your first book on .net it is a very good resource. This book gets the job done.

Finally a handy handbook
The first part of this book, which discusses what a string is, storage, and basic methods is primarily geared towards beginners. Veterans should be able to skim through the chapters. Both should take a look at the performance metrics run by the authors, as they offer valuable insight into how strings are manipulated.

The chapter on Internationalization is not only great for anyone writing global applications but also those just looking to offer more configurability to their applications.

The price of this book is worth the 3 chapters on Regular Expressions. The authors introduce each concept with an example, building up to complete examples such as Analyzing an SMTP Log File.

The Only Book that you want to read it on text's C#
I want to thank every author who working on the C# handbooks , Even the C#'s Guru programmers need this book , Whether you are a beginner or a pro you will need a complete understanding of the text manipulation in C#, and this is only in this book, I'm so sad that there's no more handbooks on C# like VB.NET :-(, The books cover all the aspects of text from A-Z (and that what i like in the book).
Thanks for all the authors
A Beginner

Serious tricks for the serious magician
This is another great book by Jean Hugard densely packed with card tricks and other sleights - over 120 in all. Some things to consider: (1) these are not simple tricks, and will require significant practice to master (i.e., they are not self-working card tricks); (2) the text is sometimes difficult to follow and may require multiple readings. Otherwise, this is a very valuable resource for the serious card manipulator.

The Best Card Trick Book Ever!
I reccomend this book for anybody who even has a "sleight" interest in card tricks. It's clever tricks and invisible sleights will allow you to amaze anybody, including other magicians. This excellent book brought me from a cub scout magician to a serious and amazing amateur. Please don't buy it so that magicians like me can still amaze guys like you.

Terrific potpourri of sleights, flourishes, and tricks
If I could take lessons from one card magician living or dead, I'd probably pick Jean Hugard. Although he wrote decades ago, his ideas are so timelessly fresh that the serious student of card magic will rejoice when reading this book--it's equally as good as "Card Manipulations." Like its predecessor, it has sleights, tricks, and flourishes that cover the gamut from intermediate to truly advanced. I wouldn't, however, recommend the two Card Manipulation books as first choices--"Expert Card Technique" is a more comprehensive source for sleights and "Encyclopedia of Card Tricks" describes all manner of tricks. But if you want all of Hugard's major works--and you will--you'll spring for the reasonably priced "Card Manipulation" books. They are that good.
