Great introduction and background
The Open University series of books on Oceanography is excellent. I would recommend them for anyone wanting a background on the subject, all the way from lay readers to 1st year grad students. As an oceanographer, I still use mine from time to time to refresh my memory! There are intermediate texts, such as Intro to Dynamical Oceanography, but you really can't beat the illustrations and simple explanatory problems of this text for someone's first introduction to the material.

An excellent and comprehensive introduction
This book provides a very accessible introduction to a topic that is often confusing to newcomers. It introduces the concepts and equations of oceanography in a step-by-step manner, with self-quizzes and problems to assist the reader in grasping the concepts. The book is good for people exploring an education in oceanography, or for people who are not oceanographers but need to understand the concepts for their own research. The book takes you from being a novice to understanding the different issues, terminology, and methods of data presentation typical of the field. A grasp of the material puts you in a position to dive into the oceanographic literature and pull out the information relevant to your own field of study.

How a bad thing, can turn into a better positive opportunity
This book teaches you how you can overcome negative or bad things that happened and that makes you feel down or depressed. It shows that most of the time, when something happens, it can lead to a much better opportunity. So many inspiring examples are given and shows you how uplifting it can be reading about famous people that went through struggles before they became famous. Success-street is not easy-street! It is a highly recommended book, definetly worthwhile reading, especially when things don't look they are going your way.

The book helped me to find my true path in life.
Having been fired from a job which I loved (an editor) for writing about the TRUTH - I found that this book enabled me to redefine who I was and where I was going. Consequently, I just finished my first novel - a passion that has been a lifelong dream.

Bold. Un-quaint. Superb.
Miller knows his subjects (the people) and his subject (their desperation) with a clarity and fearlessness that most people would prefer to avoid. Viewing his photographs are no easier a task than living wholly and honestly. Skinheads, speedfreaks, Tenderloin whores, friends and neighbors. Lucid, terrifying, and ultimately beautiful photographs from a man of the same qualities.

Wonderful!
The black and white photographs in this volume are strikingly beautiful, achingly poignant, and gritty at the same time. Unflinching, honest portraits of the darker side...

personal
Open His gift is so easy to read that an uneducated individual can understand the plan of salvation, and yet so powerful that our adult Sunday School Class spent last fall and winter studying
it. I have purchased over two hundred of these books and given them to all members of my family and many of my friends in the U.S. and Canada. Dana lives His Gift in her every day life and is a great inspiration to all she comes in contact with. Rosella Wright

There's No Place Like Home
Another beautiful production from English publisher Dorling Kindersley, "Open House" features sumptuous, action-packed illustrations, a pithy text, and more than 90 durable flaps revealing the interiors of eight different historical structures: A Roman sidewalk and upstairs house, its 19th century American West counterpart, a 15th Century Scottish tower, an 18th century "Country Mansion" (in the Roman style), a 19th century French farmhouse, a mid-nineteenth century Japanese home, and (from the 17th century) a French farmhouse and a Dutch home. Three of the eight illustrations are two-page spreads, including the tall Scottish tower.

Daily life is described briefly, and the flaps open to show more detail about the various occupants and their use of each building. Open one of the tower flaps, for example, and you see the Scottish lord's servants and soldiers eating in the great hall, and read that meals were "served on a slice of stale bread, instead of a plate." Peer inside the French farmhouse to view a boy lifting a heavy sack of grain, or find the patchwork quilt in the house above the Old West general store. The slim book provides a snapshot of both the delights and the hardships of life in earlier times. This is an excellent book to explore for fans of flaps, history, architecture, and culture.

Open House
This is a terrific book. It has so much detail behind each "lift-the-flap" that each reading shows something missed before. From a "Roman Street" house to a western "American Store" each page is interesting, factual, and entertaining. I have been searching for another book like this for years! My kids' favorite page has always been the "Scottish Tower" from the 1500's that shows the "bathroom facilities"!
Enjoy.

My favorite book as a child!
This was my most treasured book when I was a child, and I still love it today. I very happily hung off my bedpost and cried out, "All aboard for bed!" when I was reading this book.

This book is an excellent book for children of all ages, and for adults who would like to smile. I can't express how happy reading this book makes me, even 30 years after I first read it. Lots of happiness and silliness and wonderful sayings to remember. And, "Lovabye is a very good word to know."

I <Heart> this Book
This is my favorite Bad day book on earth. to me, it represents the perfect blend of Nonsense and sensibilty, and though it may seem ridiculous, under closer scrutiny, it offers sensitive alternitives to those just a little grumpy with what everyone else is doing.

Very readable and easy to use cook book.
This is a most useful book and it is easy for the average cook to use. The recipes are understandable and easy to use. A fasicinating read and most interesting.

brilliant and a rewarding read
This was one of the finest cookbooks I have come across in years. Mr. Smiths mastery of maritime flavors quickly surfaces and he obviously has a highly refined and developed taste.

Open Mind Zen: A Guide to Meditation
I've read scores of books on Zen, but this one is most like my favorite and first read, Zen Mind, Beginners Mind. I could meditate on each chapter because they are short and easy to digest. The topics are well organized and go deep!

Best Little Zen Book!
Wow, there are so many complex books on Zen these days that are a chore to get through, it was a real pleasure to read something that is as simple as Zen sets itself up to be. Each chapter was short and concise, and provided just enough food for thought for my morning meditation. This is a very clear book that makes "sense" out of the Zen paradox!

Invaluable Reference.
This book is not a set of miscellaneous papers but a book of detailed planned chapter by chapter guide to open pit design and planning. This is the first of its kind and has had an uncomprehensible amount of detailed background research and planning making it an invaluable reference for any professional involved in open pit design, for both beginners and experienced experts. And for those not experienced with mine planning packages it includes CSMINE a scaled down software of the major mine planning systems which takes you step by step through core basic processes and principles used in resource modelling and open pit design. I highly recommend this book. Digby Millikan. Geolite Mining Systems. Consultant in resource modelling and open pit design.

excelent for mining design
the book is academic and practical for student and mining engineers.
