Book Description
In its early chapters this book develops a unified approach for dealing with nonlinear semiconductor circuits which are used in conjunction with selective band-pass filters. With these concepts as the fundamental tools, the subsequent chapters explore the basics of sinusoidal oscillators, mixing circuits, power amplifiers, amplitude modulators and demodulators, and frequency modulators and demodulators. Much of the material in the later chapters is unique. In particular, the chapters dealing with frequency modulation and demodulation develop the functional form of almost all existing modulation circuits from a few basic theoretical concepts; such a unified treatment does not exist anywhere else.

The Tile Making, Designing and Using.......2003-06-24
After I got through the section on the history of tile...I don't understand why tile books all start with the same history lession, I found the book to be extremely informative and very well versed on a multitude of tile making and decorating applications. Thanks to Mr. Clark for sharing his knowledge.
Pretty, but of minimal use.......2003-02-22
If you are looking for many small pictures with little detail for ideas, this is your book.
If you are looking for a source of instructional material with step-by-step or other detailed information on various methods of tile making and/or decorating, I STRONGLY suggest that you save your money & look elsewhere.
This book was a great disappointment to me & I found much more useful information in Giorgini's book, "Handmade Tiles."
Book Description
Reflecting the view of "A Course in Miracles" that "a universal theology is impossible, but a universal experience [love] is not only possible but necessary," this dialogue was held in the loving spirit of friends respecting their differences and agreeing to disagree. Dr. Wapnick and Rev. Clarke define the differences clearly, showing unequivocally that "A Course in Miracles" and the Bible are mutually exclusive theologies that can never be integrated into one coherent spirituality. Themes include the origin of the world, Jesus, the Eucharist, and daily life.

A helpful contrast of two spiritual paths.......2002-11-29
A COURSE IN MIRACLES AND CHRISTIANITY: A DIALOGUE is a conversation between Kenneth Wapnick, Ph.D., and W. Norris Clarke, S.J., Ph.D. on the differences between A COURSE IN MIRACLES (a self-study book about spiritual psychotherapy) and Christianity. Such a dialogue is appropriate since A COURSE IN MIRACLES claims Jesus as its author. As the two men make quickly apparent, however, the "Course" and Christianity are mutually exclusive paths.
I found A COURSE IN MIRACLES AND CHRISTIANITY: A DIALOGUE very helpful because I come from a Catholic background, but left Catholicism for the Course. It is interesting that comparing and contrasting these two paths makes their respective positions even more clear and understandable. I learned things in this book about Catholicism that I had not known (it's interesting to note that Mr. Wapnick had, at one time, studied to become a Catholic priest). Another interesting thing is that it is thanks to W. Norris Clarke that Mr. Wapnick no longer describes A COURSE IN MIRACLES as being a "correction" of Catholicism; as Norris notes, in order for the Course to be a correction of Catholicism and Christianity, the Course would have to retain the same basic framework. A COURSE IN MIRACLES contradicts Christianity on almost every count: the Bible says God created the world; A COURSE IN MIRACLES says the world was made by the ego as an attack *on* God (and that God doesn't even know about the world because for God to know about the physical world would be to make it real). The Jesus of A COURSE IN MIRACLES teaches that death, the body, and suffering have no meaning, that there is no sin, and that his name and very identity is ultimately just symbolic (as is everyone else's); the Jesus of the Bible is a very real individual personal identity who teaches that pain is very real and that he suffered and died for our sins.
The extraordinary thing about A COURSE IN MIRACLES AND CHRISTIANITY: A DIALOGUE is that these two men are able to openly state that their paths are mutually exclusive and disagree on about every issue, and yet they never get hostile toward one another. They even come across as friends. The book buyer may be interested to know that A COURSE IN MIRACLES AND CHRISTIANITY: A DIALOGUE is a transcript of a conversation between the two authors (it had originally been intended to be an audio program). The conversation format provides this book with an accessibility that it may not have had otherwise, due to the fact that the theological points tackled are very, very "heady" at times.
Wapnick's theology and Christianity might be a better title........2002-06-24
There are some fine things in this book, but also some serious problems. Most of the latter stem from the fact that Clarke seems to have taken what he knows of the Course from Wapnick, in the form of a six-hour workshop. The result is that at times they discuss not so much the differences between Christianity and the Course as between Christianity and the idiosyncratic interpretations which Dr. Wapnick brings to the Course. This tends to make the teachings of the Course and of Christianity seem to differ more than they actually do. Since this suits both of them down to the ground, they are happy with the result, but it needs to be taken with a degree of skepticism.
For instance, they discuss the difference between what the Course says about the origin of the material world and what Christianity says, without acknowledgment that in the so-called Urtext we find a flat-footed statement that the material world was created by God as a means of undoing the separation. The whole question of what the Course actually teaches on this issue is a very difficult one, and hardly something we can oppose to traditional Christian thought quite so readily. Certainly, however, you will not find a collective ego as the creator of the world, since the Course knows nothing of that concept. It does not state that our various selves were created by a process like cellular mitosis, as the supposed "one false self" divided over and over. Rather, the Course teaches that each of us individually is a soul, spirit, or thought directly created by God.
The Course also does not teach that Jesus does not concern himself with our bodies or our behavior, and again, the original dictation proves the opposite to be the case. This supposed difference between Christianity and the Course is simply an aspect of Wapnick's theology, arrived at by a process of reasoning which he gives in this book, and not a teaching of the Course. The Course likewise does not teach that the disciples projected their inner experience of Jesus and thus hallucinated a bodily resurrection-and Dr. Wapnick really ought to know better than this, since he was there when Helen heard her Voice explain that Jesus did appear to them in a body as real as any body ever is.

Book Description
With 161 illustrations and 11 color plates, this classic work is a chronological survey of attempts to localize brain function from antiquity to the present with detailed interpretive captions. This work is an invaluable guide both to the history of this aspect of the neurosciences and to many of the most dramatic pictorial sources in the history of neuroanatomy and neurophysiology from the ancient world to modern electronic imaging modalities. This new edition of Clarke and Dewhurst's definitive work is thoroughly revised and completely redesigned and reset. It contains a new preface by Edwin Clarke, a new chapter by Michael J. Aminoff surveying advances in imaging technology since 1972, and a new bibliography updating the neuroscientific literature.

Book Description
Un curso de milagros es una serie de tres libros, dictados por Jess, que ensea que la manera de recordar a Dios es deshaciendo la culpa a travs de perdonar a los dems. El Curso se origin en 1965, como respuesta a la peticin de does psiclogos de encontrar "otra manera" de relacionarse con los dems. Un curso de milagros se concluy en 1972 y se public en 1976. El Dr. Kenneth Wapnick y el Rev. W. Norris Clarke, S.J., entablaron este dilogo para discuitir las diferencias entre los sistemas de pensamiento de Un curso de milagros y del cristianismo bblico. Como reflejo del punto de vista expuesto en Un curso de milagros de que "una teologa universal es imposible, mientras que una experiencia [el amor] universal no slo es posible sino necesaria," el dilogo se llev a cabo en el espritu amoroso de amigos que respetan sus diferencias, y que estn de acuerdo en no estar de acuerdo. As pues, no era el propsito de ellos debatir estas diferencias, las cuales definen claramente a los dos sistemas de pensamiento como espiritualidades que se excluyen mutuamente, sino ms bien exponer las diferencias abiertamente, con la esperanza de que este dilogo contribuya a una mejor comprensin tanto de Un curso de milagros como del cristianismo.
Pues al final, es la experiencia sin juicios de nuestra unidad con Dios y Su creacin, ms bien que la mera aceptacin de la teologa de UN CURSO DE MILAGROS en oposicin a la de otro sistema espiritual, lo que constituye el propsito del currculo del Curso. (Tomado de la Introduccin.)
Book Description
Mystery author/sleuth Mike Jaffe and his girl friend Cory Masters have arrived in Honolulu for their first vacation together in many years. They are staying at the home of one of his best friends, Ann Hastings; a fashion model turned mystery maven. He, along with several other authors, have agreed to sign copies of their books in order to support the local literacy program. Once this commitment is met, he and Cory plan to enjoy themselves by seeing some of the local sights. His plans are placed on hold when one of the other authors is discovered brutally murdered in her suite. The police are baffled and ask him to join in the investigation of the young author's murder. He agrees, and asks Cory and Ann to assist him. Will their efforts expose the identity of the murderer before he leaves the island? Only time will tell.
Book Description
Divorced from the Mob breaks the mob code of silence and describes the life of Andrea Giovino, a woman born and bred into the Mafia, and her inspirational escape. Sexy and street-smart, Giovino married a mob drug runner, earned a seat at ‘80s nightclub tables next to John Gotti, and took an emotional and bloody ride through organized crime. Hers was also the task of keeping her children safe—keeping the guns out of reach, washing bloodstains out of her husband’s clothes—and maintaining the household’s front as a model of American domesticity in her quietly luxurious Staten Island neighborhood of doctors and lawyers, all the while helping manage a criminal enterprise that raked in money. A murder, a DEA set-up, and FBI wiretaps finally brought Giovino, her husband, and her brother to the brink of prison. Defiantly, Giovino chose to retain her identity, facing down threats against her life and courageously divorcing herself and her children from the Gambino world of organized crime. Now a model working parent, Giovino has penned this perspective of mob life largely unexplored by film and literature, and a headline-grabbing expose of organized crime told in a voice readers will never forget.
Customer Reviews:
No mea culpa here........2005-11-29
The book is well written. The story is familar in terms of mobster literature. Its a pretty good read. She leaves me cold. She divorced said mob and turned her life around when she had no other choices. Maybe that was the best she could do given the particulars of her life, but something is too off putting for me to be able to sympathise.
And turned her life around to what? We arn't give any particulars of her new "independent" life. For safety's sake? Who knows" Ultimatly, who cares?
Poor Editing.......2005-07-31
I found this biography fascinating (in the vein of "The Glass Castle"), but there were too many typos - at least in the edition I read. These mistakes (often 1 or more to a page) were disconcerting and inexcusable, in my opinion, since the book was co-written. You'd figure one of the two writers would have found the other's errors. I have to give Andrea credit, though, given her childhood, she's truly a survivor. Her story makes me wonder what might have been had she experienced an ordinary or a privileged upbringing.
No Accountability.......2004-11-29
I'm still waiting for the other part of the title to materialize. That is, when did she become an independent woman? She leeched from man to man and then to the Witness Protection Program. She even needed a man to help her write the book.
She might talk the talk but she did not walk the walk. Even when her world is falling apart (again), she first thinks of who is going to care for her first before she thinks of putting food on the table for her kids. Me, me, me, me, me.
One got the feeling she was only sorry she got caught. If she had never been caught, she'd still be mooching off the organized crime system.
If she had to do it all over again, you know she'd do it again in a heartbeat.
Married to The Mob for All the Wrong Reasons.......2004-08-26
I read this last week while lollygagging on South Padre Island beach where they have the 3rd largest Spring Break every year. This book is a definite page turner. Andy grew up poor and abused and got the attention and money from men that she craved and never received as a child. Unfortunately, she was abused as an adult as well and the money and power she acquired was not worth it in the end. I hope she and her children are still alive and well in PA. She is a tough cookie so I am sure she is doing fine. If you like true stories about the mob you will want to read this one.
A FUN Summer read!.......2004-07-29
I couldn't put this book down. I am a big fan of mob stories and this was a good one...I am just glad she got her life together and got her kids out of that mess. The author is a strong woman with incredible survivor skills. I wish her all the best!
Book Description
Andrea Giovino breaks the Mafia’s code of silence and describes the life of a woman born and bred into the Family, and her inspirational escape. Her defiant struggle to break free of her family’s criminal legacy is by turns horrifying and heartbreaking.
As a child in Brooklyn, Giovino watched her brother become a hit man and helped her mother host card games for local mafiosos. As a sexy, street-smart woman, she earned a seat at nightclub tables next to John Gotti, and took an emotional and bloody ride through organized crime that no HBO series could match. At home, she fought to keep her children safe—keeping the guns out of reach, washing bloodstains out of her husband’s clothes—and maintain the household’s front as a model of American domesticity.
Murders, a DEA setup, and FBI wiretaps finally brought Giovino to the brink of prison. Defiantly, she chose to retain her identity, facing down threats against her life and courageously separating herself and her children from the world of organized crime.
Customer Reviews:
I have such mixed emotions on this story.......2007-08-16
This book left me confused. It's really difficult to identify with Andrea. In spite of the fact that she's able to look back on her life within a community of crime and admit to her mistakes, there's a certain edge to her that teeters between likeable and detestable. That said, the book is good. It seems to be a genuine account of her life and struggles. For those interested in non-fiction accounts of mob life, this is an incredibly interesting read. In spite of any feelings I had about Andrea's choices, I continued to root for her throughout the book. It must have taken a lot of guts (which the author is in no short supply of), not to mention personal suffering to get this out on paper. My only real critique is that I would love to know how she spent the last ten years of her life away from organized crime.
