Product Description
The astonishing, uplifting story of a real-life Indiana Jones and his humanitarian campaign to use education to combat terrorism in the Taliban s backyard

Anyone who despairs of the individual s power to change lives has to read the story of Greg Mortenson, a homeless mountaineer who, following a 1993 climb of Pakistan s treacherous K2, was inspired by a chance encounter with impoverished mountain villagers and promised to build them a school. Over the next decade he built fifty-five schools especially for girls that offer a balanced education in one of the most isolated and dangerous regions on earth. As it chronicles Mortenson s quest, which has brought him into conflict with both enraged Islamists and uncomprehending Americans, Three Cups of Tea combines adventure with a celebration of the humanitarian spirit.

5 out of 5 stars An excellent book, an excellent story September 8, 2008
Sharon V. Richardson (Southern Pines, NC)
I just finished reading Three Cups of Tea. I found the story compelling, and perhaps life-changing. Contrary to others, I did not find it poorly told, and I was often moved to tears. This is an excellent book which should be a must read for anyone in our US administration, to see what one man with vision can accomplish.


5 out of 5 stars This Book will Amaze and Inspire You! September 8, 2008
Elizabeth L. Alexander (California)
It's hard to put into words my feelings after reading this book. It should be required reading for every American. Greg Mortenson's story reads like a non-stop Indiana Jones Adventure. "Dr. Greg", as he is known throughout Pakistan and Afghanistan, proves that one person really can make a difference. His passionate mission to promote peace by building one school at a time in some of the world's most dangerous territories will amaze and inspire you.

Greg navigates his way through dangerous social, political and religious mazes as he strives to bring secular education to the poorest and most remote regions of Pakistan and Afghanistan. Just when you think he's literally about to loose his life, he manages emerge victorious yet again by winning supporters and allies in the most unlikely places simply by honestly and passionately sharing his vision.

People like Greg make me think there really is hope for world peace. I can't think of anyone more deserving of a Nobel Peace Prize than Greg Mortenson.

Three Cups of Tea: One Man's Mission to Promote Peace . . . One School at a Time

Greg Mortenson has set a bar so high that it is beyond the reach of most of us. However, as a female Geography teacher, for many years I have explained to my students every semester that one of the biggest problems in the world today is the lack of educational opportunities for females. Thank you, Greg, for helping to alleviate that problem. Also, as a Geography teacher, I particularly appreciated the incredible descriptions of places I will never be able to visit. Thank you David Relin. This is a fabulous book.

I spend a lot of time reading books, magazine and newspaper articles, and watching TV programs that pertain to work being done by nonprofits and NGOS. I spent part of my career in the nonprofit world and have volunteered in my community for as long as I can remember as my mother is also very committed to service.

I talk to friends about their nonprofit work and my company gives generously to a whole host of these organizations. I have a carefully chosen few organizations that I donate to and if friends send me a notice that they are running a race or taking part in some other way to raise money for a charity they believe in, I'm good for a donation. Lately I've been feeling the need to do more and I'm not sure if that means joining a board, lending my business expertise on a pro-bono basis, or committing a great amount of volunteer time. Maybe it means starting my own nonprofit.

Because of my interest in education, especially that of girls in developing nations, I picked up a copy of Three Cups of Tea by Greg Mortenson and David Oliver Relin. The book charts the course that Greg Mortenson took to building schools first in the village of Korphe in Pakistan, then all over that country, and most recently in Afghanistan. I was so moved by Greg's story that about 50 pages through the book I went to the website to make a donation. He is compelling, engaging, passionate, and he's in the field for all the right reasons.

Amazon.com
For most children, summer vacation is something to look forward to. But not for our 13-year-old hero, who's forced to spend his summers with an aunt, uncle, and cousin who detest him. The third book in J.K. Rowling's Harry Potter series catapults into action when the young wizard "accidentally" causes the Dursleys' dreadful visitor Aunt Marge to inflate like a monstrous balloon and drift up to the ceiling. Fearing punishment from Aunt Petunia and Uncle Vernon (and from officials at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry who strictly forbid students to cast spells in the nonmagic world of Muggles), Harry lunges out into the darkness with his heavy trunk and his owl Hedwig.

As it turns out, Harry isn't punished at all for his errant wizardry. Instead he is mysteriously rescued from his Muggle neighborhood and whisked off in a triple-decker, violently purple bus to spend the remaining weeks of summer in a friendly inn called the Leaky Cauldron. What Harry has to face as he begins his third year at Hogwarts explains why the officials let him off easily. It seems that Sirius Black--an escaped convict from the prison of Azkaban--is on the loose. Not only that, but he's after Harry Potter. But why? And why do the Dementors, the guards hired to protect him, chill Harry's very heart when others are unaffected? Once again, Rowling has created a mystery that will have children and adults cheering, not to mention standing in line for her next book. Fortunately, there are four more in the works. (Ages 9 and older) --Karin Snelson


Book Description
Harry Potter has to sneak back to Hogwarts, after accidentally inflating his horrible Aunt Petunia. But once there everyone is whispering about a prizoner who has escaped from the famous wizard prizon, Azkaban. His name is Sirius Black, and as a follower of Lord Voldemort he is determined to track Harry Potter down -- even if it means laying siege to the very walls of Hogwarts!

5 out of 5 stars The series truly begins. August 21, 2008
E. Tuttle (Kansas City, MO USA)
I love Prisoner of Azkaban. I think that this was the novel that really hooked me into the series. I have a hard time writing a literary review of any of the Rowling novels mainly because I do not feel like I'm reading a novel when I read these books, I feel like I'm on vacation. I'm transported into another world and forget to look at the subtext or deeply analyze anything that the writer is trying to say because it is just to much fun to just read it. This is a book to read when you are stressed out because of your real life. Try reading it when you are in a wretched mood and see if you are not instantly a little bit happier. Harry begins to evolve in this novel and the books from here begin to feel a little bit more "grown up". To me, this book is virtually the first in the series that is now so infamous. The characters are impossible to not fall in love with. Rowling seems to have her feet firmly planted in the ground at this point in the series and I knew when I finished the final pages that the series could only get better. Which of course it does.


4 out of 5 stars Better than the First Two August 14, 2008
Trina Mason
I really enjoyed it and would have given 5 stars except for the fact that I'm a sucker for happy endings. It was sad that Harry couldn't keep his newly found friends. I did find that the writing matured as Harry did, which probably made an easier read.


5 out of 5 stars An amazing novel August 9, 2008
Evan Wearne (Lincoln, NE United States)
This is my favorite novel of the series so far. In his second year, Harry was able to overcome an incompetent professor to thwart Voldemort yet again. But this novel was even better. I never saw the ending coming. The relationship between Snape and Lupin caught me completely by surprise. And the incredible revelations about Harry's parents death add even more depth to Harry's third year. JK Rowling has an amazing imagination and I look forward to finishing the rest of her novels.


4 out of 5 stars Good plot advancement but some weak elements August 6, 2008
L. C Glover (Half Moon Bay Ca, USA)
Summary: Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban is the third book in the Harry Potter series. The book introduces some key characters for the later books and gives the reader more backstory on Harry's parents. The writing seems as if J. K. Rowling was debating on doing more description or keeping the book length down -- I would have gone for more descriptions and more pages.

Setting:
The world of Harry Potter continues to expand into a more interesting fantasty setting with each book. Rowling does a good job of creating the setting using existing fantasty elements with a slight tweak to keep it non-cliche (for the most part). The Marauder's Map is a fantastic idea! It will be interesting to see if it is re-used in later novels. Note: There is starting to become a bit predictable in that each book has a new magic item which is central to the story.

Characters:
Sirius Black is introduced to the setting as a murderous wizard. The Sirius Black character is developed to a certain degree but when he has some actual dialog near the end of the book, he comes across as a bit out of sorts (Understandable after being in Azkaban for 12 years). I saw the movie version before reading the book which has colored my opinion of book and the book's characterization of Sirius Black and Remus Lupin. I do prefer the movie adaptation a bit more; it could be the actors did a fantastic job.

Harry, Ron and Hermaine continue to develop a bit. Their character development is secondary to plot advancement.

Action:
The action is typical Harry Potter style where things get hairy but everyone comes out ok. The description of the mass dementor attack was weak and really should have been more developed as this is a critical scene showing what Harry can do magically and has some connection to his parent's spirits.

The relative danger level to the character is weak but appropriate for what is going on in the story.

Prose:
The prose is tight and to the point. The descriptions are not very detailed which is a bit frustrating as I keep wanting more hear with each book especially to see a difference in the movie set work (which is amazing) to see if there was something the set designers did not do for the movies. Generally, a book does a better job of describing a world than a movie -- kudos to the movie setting designers and craftsmen.

Overall: 4 stars
Setting: 5 stars
Characters: 2.5 - 3 stars
Action: 3 stars
Prose: 2.5 - 3 stars


5 out of 5 stars Fabulous narration July 6, 2008
David D. Chaplin (Birmingham, AL)
My family has enjoyed listening to the Harry Potter audio books for several years. Jim Dale's readings include a host of characters with remarkably distinctive voices that carry over from the first book, the Sorcerer's Stone, to the last. He reads with fabulous energy and makes these great stories come to life like nothing I've ever heard before.
The Prisoner of Azkaban is no exception. This audiobook is a fabulous way to enjoy several afternoon in the car or in your favorite chair at home.

Product Description
18 Cds in box

Amazon.com
In Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, J.K. Rowling offers up equal parts danger and delight--and any number of dragons, house-elves, and death-defying challenges. Now 14, her orphan hero has only two more weeks with his Muggle relatives before returning to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Yet one night a vision harrowing enough to make his lightning-bolt-shaped scar burn has Harry on edge and contacting his godfather-in-hiding, Sirius Black. Happily, the prospect of attending the season's premier sporting event, the Quidditch World Cup, is enough to make Harry momentarily forget that Lord Voldemort and his sinister familiars--the Death Eaters--are out for murder.

Readers, we will cast a giant invisibility cloak over any more plot and reveal only that You-Know-Who is very much after Harry and that this year there will be no Quidditch matches between Gryffindor, Ravenclaw, Hufflepuff, and Slytherin. Instead, Hogwarts will vie with two other magicians' schools, the stylish Beauxbatons and the icy Durmstrang, in a Triwizard Tournament. Those chosen to compete will undergo three supreme tests. Could Harry be one of the lucky contenders?

But Quidditch buffs need not go into mourning: we get our share of this great game at the World Cup. Attempting to go incognito as Muggles, 100,000 witches and wizards converge on a "nice deserted moor." As ever, Rowling magicks up the details that make her world so vivid, and so comic. Several spectators' tents, for instance, are entirely unquotidian. One is a minipalace, complete with live peacocks; another has three floors and multiple turrets. And the sports paraphernalia on offer includes rosettes "squealing the names of the players" as well as "tiny models of Firebolts that really flew, and collectible figures of famous players, which strolled across the palm of your hand, preening themselves." Needless to say, the two teams are decidedly different, down to their mascots. Bulgaria is supported by the beautiful veela, who instantly enchant everyone--including Ireland's supporters--over to their side. Until, that is, thousands of tiny cheerleaders engage in some pyrotechnics of their own: "The leprechauns had risen into the air again, and this time, they formed a giant hand, which was making a very rude sign indeed at the veela across the field."

Long before her fourth installment appeared, Rowling warned that it would be darker, and it's true that every exhilaration is equaled by a moment that has us fearing for Harry's life, the book's emotions running as deep as its dangers. Along the way, though, she conjures up such new characters as Alastor "Mad-Eye" Moody, a Dark Wizard catcher who may or may not be getting paranoid in his old age, and Rita Skeeter, who beetles around Hogwarts in search of stories. (This Daily Prophet scoop artist has a Quick-Quotes Quill that turns even the most innocent assertion into tabloid innuendo.) And at her bedazzling close, Rowling leaves several plot strands open, awaiting book 5. This fan is ready to wager that the author herself is part veela--her pen her wand, her commitment to her world complete. (Ages 9 and older) --Kerry Fried

5 out of 5 stars An amazing novel August 30, 2008
Evan Wearne (Lincoln, NE United States)
Without a doubt this is my favorite novel of the series so far. The action in this novel was intense and I finished the novel in a couple of days. JK Rowling always does a great job of mixing foreshadowing and mystery. With each novel, I have begun to realize that nothing is as it seems. I thought I finally figured out the plot, only to be completely surprised in the end.

The novel comes after the Prisoner of Azakaban, where we learned that Sirius did not murder Harry's parents, and that wormtail was the actual villain. Wormtail escaped at the end, though, with an oracle that he would nurse Voldemort back to health. That is where the forth book picks up, Voldemort and Wormtail have returned to the house of Voldemort's father to regain health. Additionally, armed with information from a ministry employee, they seek to destroy Harry Potter again.

An old tournament is reborn, and Harry is chosen to compete although it should have been impossible. He competes and his luck remains with him until the end. Questions will be answered in this novel. Will the Death Eaters rise again? Will a student die? Will Hogwarts stay open? Will the Ministry oppose Voldemort? The Goblet of Fire is a great read.


5 out of 5 stars Pure Epic-ness! August 22, 2008
E. Tuttle (Kansas City, MO USA)
While I firmly believe that the Prisoner of Azkaban is the true beginning of the series that is now known as the Harry Potter series, this is the novel that truly cements its grandeur. All of the characters begin to grow in this novel and Rowling seems to be truly growing as writer. She seems to have a firm grip on where this novel is going to go and she also seems less intimated about bringing in the true darkness of the "bad" characters. It was not until this novel that I saw why some parents would not think that it is age appropriate. I do not agree with this opinion, however I do understand it. There are some genuinely creepy, moments in this book, but I truly appreciate because I think of how many children have grown up with these books and how Rowling allows the characters in the novel to grow with them. I believe this is one of the series' greatest strengths. The complexity of the characters grow intensely and I also think that this is the story that truly connects Harry to the other important characters in the novel: Dumbledore and Voldemort. Rowling is no longer writing archetypal characters; she embrasses the archetypes that she has created, but truly allows them to become characters outside of the stereotypes. I always felt that Dumbledore was a little to similar to Gandalf the Grey, but Dumbledore starts to transcend his stereotypes as well as others in the novel. Defintely worth a read, however I would begin at least with Prisoner of Azkaban before jumping into this novel.

3 out of 5 stars Torn on how to rate it -- good plot advancement, interesting characters but huge plot hole August 8, 2008
L. C Glover (Half Moon Bay Ca, USA)
Summary:
This is the 4th book in the Harry Potter series. It follows the same style, darkening tone, similar formulas as the prior three books -- new mode of transport / new magic device, new Dark Arts Teacher that is obviously a bad guy and nice convenient wrap-up of the various elements introduced. I would have given this 5 stars if there is not the huge plothole of why does Harry have to be the winner of the Triwizard tournament when undercover Death Eater could have just given Harry a Potkey at anyone point in the year.

Setting:
Rowling continues to develop a great fantasty milieu for YA (Young adults). The world is a great combination of mundane and magical. The World Cup of Quiddich is inspired and does a great job of showing the extent of the wizard world around the globe. The interface between Muggles and Wizards could use a bit of work as the method shown in the book is clearly problematic for keeping the wizard world secret.

Characters:
The main characters do advance a certain amount but still a bit on the thin side. The introduction of boy-girl relationships is an interesting element and needed given the age of the characters. Harry and Ron are clearly thick with regards to Hermiene. It is unfortunate but a needed part of a boy growing up. Hermiene is handled quite well and show an advanced maturity fitting her character (she even has some fun for a change).

Action:
The action is consistent in tone and description from the prior books. Harry is entered into the Tri-wizards tournament by someone else to get him lured into dangerous situations. Note: this is a lame plot device for getting him to Valdamort. The tests could have been a bit more difficult / interesting -- the dragon task description is a bit thin for my taste and the maze was clearly there just to get some Harry character development and move him to Valdamort. The confrontation in the graveyard was well done and helped save a poor plot device.

Prose:
The prose style is basically the same from prior three novels with a bit of expansion that is done nicely in the first part of the book. The World Cup of Quiddich is very well done.

3 out of 5 stars What is a sorcerer's stone? August 27, 2008
Stephen Hines (Canberra, Australia)
This first of the Harry Potter series is easily the best. It introduces all the characters with which we will become familiar through succeeding years, and provides a plot that will delight children while fascinating adult readers like myself who grew up on fantasy.

One problem, not of the author's making. What on earth is a sorcerer's stone? The original title of this book, and the title used in most markets, refers to a philosopher's stone. Most educated readers will recognise this reference to an age-old quest for longer life, but the reference has gone by the time the American reader reaches the bookshelf. Do American publishers really think they have to talk down to their audience? Or did some nitwit in the publishing industry really have no clue? Either way, this is a monumental stuff-up which treats the American reader as an uneducated dummy rather than going with the author's original intent.

Publishers, give your readers a little more credit. The relatively low score I give this book is a result of your error rather than the author's.


5 out of 5 stars Impossible to not enjoy. August 22, 2008
E. Tuttle (Kansas City, MO USA)
I went into this novel with some apprehension considering its massive hype. However, I was pleasantly surprised at how enjoyable it truly was. Sure, there are plenty of people that bash it, and while I will agree that it is not the most "important" novel to come out of the last twenty years, it is truly good fun. I am currently re-reading all of the Harry Potter novels because I never did get around to reading the seventh one and I am astounded at how much fun they are to read a second time. I have a really hard time looking at these novels critically, however, mainly because I don't think about the subtext or the writing style as I read it. I'm too absorbed in the world. I don't think this is a negative thing, if anything it is the opposite. This book is one hundred percent a guilty pleasure. It is on par with most people's obsessions with reality TV or my personal obssesion with the TV show Friends. I know that it is not the best thing ever produced, but I love it regardless. Rowling has written such delightful characters that I have honestly come to love, that I barely care what happens in the series as long as I get to keep reading about them. Try it reading it when you've have a horrible day and see if you can keep a smile from showing up in the corners of your mouth.


4 out of 5 stars A Late Bloomer.... August 14, 2008
Trina Mason
I've just recently started reading this series, and I have to admit that I have been very entertained. This book was a bit "young" I noticed in the writing, but understandably so, since the main character is only 11. Since I had seen the movie before I'd read this, I didn't have very many surprises, but all in all, it was worth the read.


5 out of 5 stars Excellent! August 14, 2008
Roberta Thies (Ohio)
I love this book, but lost it, so I had to order another one. I have the complete set now, and have to read them at least once a year or so. IT is a great start to the Harry Potter series. Thank you.


5 out of 5 stars First step in a long, exciting journey... August 13, 2008
C. Perez Jr. (Orlando, FL)
1 out of 1 found this review helpful

Let me start like this.. I was never into Harry Potter. Well, at least not like I am now. I was a fan of the movies but that was about it. Then I was told to read the books, I figured, what the hell. So I started with Half Blood Prince and then Deathly Hollows. Wow. If I read pretty much the last 1/4 of this series and got so sucked into it, I owed it to myself to take the whole trip through this world that cannot be described in words.

I finished The Sorcerer's Stone totally forgetting about the movie so it was like I had never seen it. The SS is the perfect stepping stone to get the series started. It introduces most of the main characters and gives you an idea of how to understand whats going on (which considering the twists and turns of the series, you'll need all the info you can get.)

From beginning to end, you're thrown into Harrys life. You feel everything he feels, his emotions, his thoughts. You feel sorry for him when he's living with his family, and you can't wait to find out what happens the next year at Hogwarts. And that is what makes this an amazing story, your connection with him and the anticipation for what is going to happen to him next. This book is a must buy for any fan of fantasy stories, don't let the fact that it's in the childrens section of a book store throw you off. The road Harry walks will get a lot darker. See this as the calm before the storm.

Product Description

Thomas L. Friedman’s phenomenal number-one bestseller The World Is Flat has helped millions of readers to see the world in a new way. In his brilliant, essential new book, Friedman takes a fresh and provocative look at two of the biggest challenges we face today: America’s surprising loss of focus and national purpose since 9/11; and the global environmental crisis, which is affecting everything from food to fuel to forests. In this groundbreaking account of where we stand now, he shows us how the solutions to these two big problems are linked--how we can restore the world and revive America at the same time.

Friedman explains how global warming, rapidly growing populations, and the astonishing expansion of the world’s middle class through globalization have produced a planet that is “hot, flat, and crowded.” Already the earth is being affected in ways that threaten to make it dangerously unstable. In just a few years, it will be too late to fix things--unless the United States steps up now and takes the lead in a worldwide effort to replace our wasteful, inefficient energy practices with a strategy for clean energy, energy efficiency, and conservation that Friedman calls Code Green.

This is a great challenge, Friedman explains, but also a great opportunity, and one that America cannot afford to miss. Not only is American leadership the key to the healing of the earth; it is also our best strategy for the renewal of America.

In vivid, entertaining chapters, Friedman makes it clear that the green revolution we need is like no revolution the world has seen. It will be the biggest innovation project in American history; it will be hard, not easy; and it will change everything from what you put into your car to what you see on your electric bill. But the payoff for America will be more than just cleaner air. It will inspire Americans to something we haven’t seen in a long time--nation-building in America--by summoning the intelligence, creativity, boldness, and concern for the common good that are our nation’s greatest natural resources.

Hot, Flat, and Crowded is classic Thomas L. Friedman: fearless, incisive, forward-looking, and rich in surprising common sense about the challenge--and the promise--of the future.

Tom Friedman has written what is probably the most important book published in the past 50 years. Having been a Professor of Environmental Technology for three decades I can unequivocally say that Friedman has pulled it all together in a very readable book. There is HOPE for the future and a lot of people who jump on board are going to get rich. I just ordered 50 copies for my undergraduate class. This should be REQUIRED reading for ALL college students and the public at large.

This book lays out a practical plan for the US to take the lead in the inevitable greening of the planet.

Whether you are a a believer in global warming as a natural long-term trend, a crisis situation or even a non-believer, many will acknowledge that the earth's weather patterns seem to be changing and that we are using valuable resources at a dangerous high rate, needlessly.

What I really like about this book is that Thomas Friedman offers doable American solutions that will help our country to lead the world in conscious, intelligent energy use through tax incentives and credits. This book is solution-based minus the doom and gloom tone so popular these days, and suggests that it's not too late for the US to change our carbon footprint dramatically.

Whether you "buy" the author's positions on global warming or not, this book will make you think about our energy options and our position in the world's energy picture. I recommend this book to anyone who's concerned about energy solutions, particularly in the US.

It is interesting that this book comes out right after Hank Paulson, the U.S. Treasury Secretary, announced what amounts to the government nationalization of America's two largest mortgage lenders. Both Friedman and Paulson, a former top Wall Street executive have spent the last ten years applauding the idea of allowing "market" forces run the world.

In this book Friedman has largely reversed his views when it comes to energy, presenting some really very good ideas on what needs to be done such as tax incentives for renewable energy and the use the tax system to reduce destructive forms of energy.

I don't share a lot of Friedman's economic views but he is an intelligent journalist who previously wrote some excellent books on the Middle East. Friedman understands the disastrous geopolitical aspects of America's current addiction to foreign oil. He deserves credit for seeing that major government action is needed to reverse this.

People should be aware that in energy as in all too many aspects of global environmental policy, there really is no "free" market. There are already huge subsidies for various industries.

Along with this book I would recommend Lester Brown's Plan B 3.0: Mobilizing to Save Civilization, Third Edition. I have other relevant books in the lists on my profile.

Friedman's high visibility makes this book relevant even if you don't agree with him. He has access to many important people, and their comments are in the book. Thus, the book is also a way to see what certain leadership elements think about the subjects at hand.

I would recommend buying this book.

Watch Video Here: http://www.amazon.com/review/RMK10X9GC0GJ4 CFR member, New York Times columnist , and Pulitzer Prize winning author Thomas Friedman has come out with a thought
provoking book sure to stir up a lot of controversy. Is there truth in this book or is this just propaganda Friedman is
spitting out so his CFR and Bilderberg buddies can profit off the "Green Movement" via carbon taxing, environmental
regulation, ect? Friedman contends that the United States most act now. Two or three years down the road will be
to late. I would love for nuclear and solar technologies to be developed, but I just don't think they will ever be allowed
to be developed. I hope I am wrong, but I just don't see the elite globalist giving up an opportunity to profit off of carbon
taxing and carbon credits. I have seen proposals on how the big banks and corporations can profit off of tracking and
taxing one's carbon footprint. One part of the book that I do not agree with and I believe the majority of the scientific
community will not agree with is that the earth is heating up. Global cooling is actually occuring and it is going to
continue to occur for at least the next ten years. I am really surprised at some of the statements Friedman makes
about global warming. I go to a research university and none (yes none) of my professors think that global warming
is occuring. One may be interested to know that CO2 is a life gas, and the earth actually can support much more of it.
I do not think that Friedman spends enough time discussing the cyclical nature of global heating and cooling.
Friedman goes on to discuss why it is so important for the United States to go to "Code Green".
One should really investigate and study what Friedman says. Search for the truth, prove everything to yourself.
Don't believe Friedman or believe me until you have checked things out yourself. It is my motto to always be learning
for as many hours of the day as I can. One thing I have learned over the years is to always ask yourself who profits.
Following the money is usually the fastest to finding out what is really going on. If I may suggest two titles that have
helped my studies greatly. I would encourage one to check out Don't Like to Read, Then Don't, Listen!: How to Turn
Any Type of Text Into Audio Files That Can Be Read to You! I know that many individuals out there are like me and
would rather listen to material than have to read it themselves. I use programs like the one that is reading this review
to have books read to me. This is a god send for me. The title Getting Things Done, presents excellent time / life
stlyle management strategies. One can get these titles on amazon.

Product Description
Mackenzie Allen Philips' youngest daughter, Missy, has been abducted during a family vacation and evidence that she may have been brutally murdered is found in an abandoned shack deep in the Oregon wilderness. Four years later in the midst of his Great Sadness, Mack receives a suspicious note, apparently from God, inviting him back to that shack for a weekend. Against his better judgment he arrives at the shack on a wintry afternoon and walks back into his darkest nightmare. What he finds there will change Mack's world forever. In a world where religion seems to grow increasingly irrelevant "The Shack" wrestles with the timeless question, "Where is God in a world so filled with unspeakable pain?" The answers Mack gets will astound you and perhaps transform you as much as it did him. You'll want everyone you know to read this book!

1 out of 5 stars Tear down the shack and build your house upon "The Rock" September 8, 2008
Mark Paulson (West Orange, New Jersey)
If this book was just a story, I would not be offering any comments. However, because it attempts to incorporate biblical concepts, and because these concepts are influencing people's ideas of God, I consider this book to be very divisive, destructive and offensive to several basic Christian principles. The thought that so many Christians do not understand the danger of this is even more disturbing to me and to many other Christians. If you have a positive attitude regarding this book, Wake Up and stop being deceived!!!!!!!!!!!!

The theology in this book is so twisted. It is also appalling to me that Christians are accepting this story with such approval. The fact that Greg Albrecht, Editor of Plain Truth Magazine and Eugene Peterson, Professor Emeritus of Spiritual Theology, Regent College, Vancouver, B.C. author of The Message both approve of this book will now force me to question "The Message" every time I encounter it. Any Christian who finds any value in this book would probably find value and spiritual hope in books such as The Exorcist and Jonathan Livingston Seagull. Christians need to stop falling away from the true teachings that are found in the bible in order to get a feel good, Hallmark, emotional experience. Read Hard to Believe by John MacArthur if you really want to grow closer to God. Or better yet, just read the bible.

I know that my review is in the minority but Christians need to wake up and start being Christians again before it's too late!!!! When the author writes on page 236, "without any ritual, without ceremony, they savored the warm bread and shared the wine and laughed," I could not believe how "sacrilegious" this author could possibly be. Consider what it says in 1 Corinthians 11:27-29

Therefore, whoever eats the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord in an unworthy manner will be guilty of sinning against the body and blood of the Lord. A man ought to examine himself before he eats of the bread and drinks of the cup. For anyone who eats and drinks without recognizing the body of the Lord eats and drinks judgment on himself.

Many people reply to negative reviews with sentimental comments that encourage more open mindedness. The acceptance of truths that are contrary to the bible can not possibly lead a person closer to God because that would make God out to be a liar. Avoid this book except to be informed of the ways in which people are falling farther and farther from the truth every day.

3 out of 5 stars Three stars because it depends... September 7, 2008
Diane Kistner (Tallahassee, Florida)
If you are a person who would be shocked at the notion that God the Father could represent "himself" as a big black woman, this book may be instructive and inspiring--or offensive--to you. I can see why many who have grown up in religious environments that emphasize narrow judgment and tribalism over a more loving/respectful stance toward all creation might either love or hate this book.

If, on the other hand, you are a person who already accepts God as all-wise, all-knowing, omnipotent, omnipresent, and infinite; who does not have the pride of your typical hellfire-damnation preacher or fundamentalist; who sees the mysterious hand of the deity in all things we humans judge to be "good" or "bad"; who understands that no human being can really KNOW (at the level of words and descriptions, at any rate) who/what God is...well, then this book is both deep and lacks depth. Kind of a "carry water, chop wood."

As I was reading, a few things jumped out at me as very significant, but nothing stayed with me very long. I have to say that I imagined Jesus as one of the Geiko Neanderthals, and that was actually quite an enlightening and happy picture! I do think it was good on the author's part that he left it up in the air as to whether "it really happened" or not. A bump on the head can certainly shake up one's brain and ways of thinking about things....




5 out of 5 stars WOW September 7, 2008
PJMax (Crown Point, Indiana United States)
This is an awesome book and highly recommended to anyone who has issues with forgiveness from deep wounds inflicted by others. I love how the author brings out the relationship between the Father, Son and Holy Spirit and how they long to touch our lives with their healing power.
His illustration of the Father always being what we need was overwhelming.
I love this book and have purchased several to pass on to others, I want everyone to read 'The Shack'.

5 out of 5 stars A book offering hope of love and liberty September 7, 2008
The King's Kid (Liberia, West Africa)
This book is the embodiment of all that I believe God has been offering me for many years now, but which I've been too scared to believe in. The interactions between Mack, Papa, Jesus and Sarayu display a way of 'doing church' with which most of us are unaccustomed. To live the relationship style they are offering is to loose the bonds which have held the church for so long - namely, the bonds of performance and formulas as well as the sense of duty; the alternatives to these could bring us a fulness of life many of us have given up hoping to find.

Product Description
“ I wonder how the book got to Guernsey? Perhaps there is some sort of secret homing instinct in books that brings them to their perfect readers.” January 1946: London is emerging from the shadow of the Second World War, and writer Juliet Ashton is looking for her next book subject. Who could imagine that she would find it in a letter from a man she’s never met, a native of the island of Guernsey, who has come across her name written inside a book by Charles Lamb….

As Juliet and her new correspondent exchange letters, Juliet is drawn into the world of this man and his friends—and what a wonderfully eccentric world it is. The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society—born as a spur-of-the-moment alibi when its members were discovered breaking curfew by the Germans occupying their island—boasts a charming, funny, deeply human cast of characters, from pig farmers to phrenologists, literature lovers all.

Juliet begins a remarkable correspondence with the society’s members, learning about their island, their taste in books, and the impact the recent German occupation has had on their lives. Captivated by their stories, she sets sail for Guernsey, and what she finds will change her forever.

Written with warmth and humor as a series of letters, this novel is a celebration of the written word in all its guises, and of finding connection in the most surprising ways.

Phyllis M. Mcintosh (St. Petersburg FL)
Wonderful. I ordered this book because the title fascinated me. I had no idea who the writer was or in what style it would be written. I had once visited Guernsey and thought a book about that small island would be interesting. It was, and more. It completely enveloped me. As a writer, I was so intrigued by her style of writing, which is completely composed of letters from her to some of the occupants of the island, and their replies to her. Deep friendships evolve from this letter-exchange Wonderful book. I will read it again and again.


4 out of 5 stars Great Book and Sweet Love Story September 6, 2008
N. Carsten (malibu, california)
I thought this book had an odd title but was attracted to it because of Guernsey Island. I have a cousin who was a child in Jersey ( a another island in the same group) who was living there with her father and brother during WW2. The Germans took their island over too and life was very hard. I remembered the talk about it in our family. I thought the book would be interesting and it was!
Told through the writing of letters it really spun a fascinating connection of events that all took place when the Germans were occupying Guernsey. The interrelationships that happened then gave a wonderful picture of people at their best dealing with the awful life that faced them on a daily basis. I was fascinated seeing these friendships grow and include outsiders. What a wonderful group of friends! The story draws the reader into the story and it becomes a real page turner at the end. I loved it!

5 out of 5 stars Really fine epistolary historical novel. September 6, 2008
Barb Caffrey (Quad Cities, USA)
"The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society" is a rare gem of a book; in its epistolary (letters written back and forth) fashion, it illuminates a vanished time (World War II under the Germans) in a place very few people know much about, the Channel Islands off of the United Kingdom proper.

This novel has it all -- the historical research is spot on, the characters are interesting and well-developed, and I truly believed in both the "present" of this novel (1946) and the recent "past" occupation under the Germans.

I firmly recommend this novel and will be looking for whatever Mary Ann Shaffer and her writing partner author next.

Five stars, highly recommended.


5 out of 5 stars Just what I wanted September 6, 2008
T. Rawlings (Wilds of Montana)
I've been interested in novels written in the form of letters for a while. I particularly enjoyed the characters, the history lesson, and the combination of what was said/written and what was not. The central romance was pretty obvious from early on but other than that, good work!

Product Description
In 2006 an angel-faced but tough 42-year-old former small-town mayor named Sarah Palin became a long-shot candidate for Alaska governor demanding a higher ethical standard in state government. The timing of her reform message and a widening scandal produced a tornado that reshaped the political landscape. Surprising everyone, Palin thumped by wide margins both a sitting governor in the Republican primary election and a former governor in the general election to become Alaska's first female chief executive and its youngest ever.

5 out of 5 stars Sarah Palin Could Be the Turning Point of This Election September 7, 2008
Jo Ana Starr (USA)
3 out of 8 found this review helpful

Sarah Palin's meteoric rise on the national scene is a testament to the media-driven world in which we live. A week ago, she was known and admired by 85% of Alaskans, which in itself is remarkable, but she was largely unknown outside that state. A week later, many of us are reading this book and being deluged by the internet, press and the media, all distorting or exaggerating the facts about Sarah Palin, trying to diminish this amazing woman. I personally think those efforts are back-firing.

She is a remarkable woman by any standard, and this book written by her good friend shares a lot of information about the woman who may very well be our first female Vice President. Just juggling a large family and an active political life in Alaska is more than many men or women could handle, and yet she seems to do it with ease. As Governor of Alaska she has been a very strong advocate for the citizens of her state and cleaned up a lot of political wrongdoing there, and still continued to fulfill her responsibilities as a Mom to her children.

This book gives the reader a behind-the-scenes, insider's peek at the core of this woman, her beliefs, her tenacity, her down-to-earth attitudes, and her impressive political history. I'm sure all hockey moms are great, but this particular one may be the most exceptional of the lot.

If you are hungry for more information on this fascinating woman, you will enjoy this very real look at her life and her successes.

This is the best book I've ever seen on how to cook Moose. A lot of people don't really know how to cook moose properly. Hopefully when Sarah becomes president even McDonald's will serve mooseburgers. Other than the great moose recipes, this is a book of hate. Sarah's views are very extreme and are based on her religious fanaticism. But those moose recipes are great!


5 out of 5 stars This is a re-issue, not a new book! September 7, 2008
N. Schultz (New York)
6 out of 12 found this review helpful

Just to let you know, this book was not written because Palin is now the VP nominee. It was published a year ago under the title "Sarah: How a Small Town Girl Turned Alaska's Political Establishment on its Ear." It was simply the biography of Sarah's rise to Alaska's Governorship. When it was written, no one had any idea she would be the VP nominee.
The publisher just re-released it with the new title because of the VP nom. In my opinion, this is a good thing, since the book was not written for a national audience, but more as a personal-interest story (the author writes about Alaska country life).
I have yet to get or read the book, but I think pointing out that this is definitely NOT a partisan hack job is very important.
There is a great review of the book however, written back in June, when Palin was a very long-shot choice. From that review, this book seems like a great, straightforward, honest read. That review is here: beldar.blogs.com/beldarblog/2008/06/review-kaylene.html
The reviewer was near the end of Obama's autobiography when he got this book, so it does not seem bias to me.

This new biography of Governor Palin is a very fascinating read. I could tell the author is for Mrs. Palin but that's alright with me. It's expected. One can see that Palin is a very ordinary person who has managed to do extraordinary things on her own. She has not taken advantage of affirmative action like Obama to be the person she is now. Yes! She's done things on her own and this is where she stands by the virtue of her own courageous actions. And this alone makes for a compelling story. It is inspirational to me. Regardless of where you stand in politics of today America, you could see that she is an accomplished woman. I wish her and her family the best

Her rise is fantastic. This woman has a lot of moxie. Starting out in a small town and working her way to taking on the state Republican party. Fighting corruption and implementing change into her administration as governor. Will be interesting to see what she does next for America.

Book tells of her experiences and views.
