Book Description
In 1999, Kyoto's Miho Museum, designed by I.M. Pei, hosted an international symposium to investigate the meaning of the esthetic experience. Moderated by David Finn, six participants—artists, critics, curators—provided personal accounts of encountering great works of art. This book, with forty-five color photographs illustrating the participants' choices, is the result. The Miho Museum owns a collection of more than one thousand ancient masterpieces from the Near and Far East, and each year hosts a symposium to explore the relationships between religion, spirituality, and art.

Dave runs American history through the wringer, and comes up with some wonderfully warped formulations. (The Vikings, for example, "were extremely rugged individuals whose idea of a fun time was to sail over and set fire to England, which in those days was fairly easy to ignite because it had a very high level of thatch, this being the kind of roof favored by the local tribespeople...") Covering pre-Columbian days through the dawn of the Bush administration,
Dave Barry Slept Here is the funniest thing to hit this great nation since the Smoot-Hawley Tariff of 1930.
Book Description
If you love to laugh, if you love your country, if you are unaware that "the Sixth Amendment states that if you are accused of a crime, you have the right to a trial before a jury of people too stupid to get out of jury duty," Dave Barry Slept Here is the book for you. Every single momentous event and crucial movement is covered, including:
The Birthing Contractions of a Nation
Kicking Some British Butt
The Forging of a Large, Wasteful Bureaucracy
The Civil War: A Nation Pokes Itself in the Eyeball

Customer Reviews:
Barry at his best..........2007-09-18
I've read all of Dave Barry's stuff, novels too, and this is, hands down the funniest thing you'll ever sink your eyeballs into. It stays on my bedside table where I can get a little twisted history fix now and then. Read it, re-read it and read it again.
None Better.......2007-08-09
I first read this book when I was 12. I next read it... probably when I was still 12. I'm not one to read and re-read books, but this one will always be an exception. If Jon Stewart's "America" uses humor to expose the dysfunctional state of our country in the 21st century, Barry uses laughter to show how we got to this pitiful point. Buy it and read, then re-read it every other year or so. It only takes a couple of hours, and it never gets old.
Read this right after history class for a laugh!.......2007-03-15
I just recently finished a college-level history class, so I was well brushed up on my US history. That's half of why this book is so hilarious - I know what really happened, and Dave Barry makes very funny spins on it. He has the capacity to make the bleakest parts of history look absolutely histerical and silly, and for that, I give it my highest recommendation.
This History is signed "Spoof-fully Yours".......2007-01-14
According to Dave Barry, hundreds of thousands of years ago, America was very different. For one thing, there were no car commercials which had broadcast toward Earth from another planet far away. Twenty thousand years ago the Land Bridge was constructed and completed on October 8th. Centuries later Mayans down in Mexico constructed a calendar that it can still be used to tell the location of celestial
bodies... they're out in space.
In a takeoff of where George Washington slept, there were stories that arose. Likewise where Dave Barry slept, there were (different) stories that arose. Have a few laughs on U.S.
I'm a Dave convert now..........2006-04-04
I read this book because a friend suggested that Dave would provide some good laughs. Boy was he right!
It takes some clever writing to make me laugh, and this book had me laughing out loud often. Excellent writing, an off-beat slant on the highlights of US history and Barry's acerbic wit make this book a joy to read. I'll never look at the Smoot-Hawley Tarrif in the same way again (boy...if I had a nickel for everytime I've said that...).
It's a fun, silly, tongue-in-cheek send-up of American history that is chock full of running jokes, one-liners, satire and from out-of-nowhere curve balls that keep you smiling from page one. And, for the most part, it's his intelligent (not read: "high brow") humor that makes the book extra special.
I'm a Dave convert now. I'll be looking into some of his other works just for fun...er...so to speak. I suggest you do the same. You won't be disappointed.
Book Description
The films of Swedish director Ingmar Bergman are renowned for their largely spare and stark aesthetic, an existential framework, and plots driven by a fascination with death and the moral torments of the human soul. Birgitta Steene offers here in Ingmar Bergman: A Reference Guide an essential and unparalleled resource on the life and work of Bergman. Plumbing the depths of these trademark Bergman themes, Steene traces as well the indelible mark he left on world cinema through his other cinematographic work and writings.
Over the decades, Bergman's stature and image have evolved in fascinating ways—an iconoclast of the 1950s, a bourgeois traditionalist of the 1960s, and an icon in the 1980s. This exhaustive compendium considers each phase of his career, exploring his deep and vast oeuvre in all its controversy and complexity, and analyzes his intriguing and unique motifs such as his efforts to expose dead conventions and his portrayals of Woman as the archetype of humanity. As well as providing a detailed account of Bergman's life and chronicling his career as a filmmaker and theater director, including his work for television, Steene offers transcripts of some of the numerous interviews and conversations she conducted with Bergman. Writings by and about Bergman and a detailed chronological survey of his film and theatrical work completes this eminently readable and thoroughly researched volume. A wide-ranging and groundbreaking work of film history, Ingmar Bergman is the definitive reference for scholars of the Scandinavian master.

Book Description
Many of today's Broadway shows, from Rent to The Lion King, have become commercial hits, but do they have the cultural importance or the dramatic and musical artistry of such enduring productions as Oklahoma!, Show Boat, or Kiss Me, Kate?
Mark N. Grant traces the transformation of singing and melody, libretto and lyric writing, dance rhythms, sound design, and choreography and stage direction through three distinct eras: the formative period (1866-1927), the golden age (1927-1966), and the fall (1967 to the present). He explores how and why the unsophisticated genre of pre-1927 musical comedy evolved into the creative, innovative, and immensely popular theatre produced by the likes of Rodgers and Hammerstein and then steadily faded as a significant entertainment genre in American culture, giving rise to the "McMusicals" of today.
This provocative, sometimes irreverent work offers a refreshing perspective on the history of American musical theatre and provides strong views on restoring the genre to its former greatness.
Customer Reviews:
Negative and nasty, with one exception.......2007-07-23
The Rise and Fall of the Broadway Musical is among the most critical books written about the subject. Mr. Grant picks apart almost every aspect of the genre, espeically the writers of today- Maury Yeston, Ahrens and Flaherty, even Stephen Sondheim! He finds fault with nearly every director of musicals- Fosse, Prince, Bennett, Tune, Champion (not Jerome Robbins though, thankfully) and really seems to dislike any musical that isn't Carousel or Gypsy.
How are the new writers and directors of today supposed to create new work for the musical theatre when they are harshly criticized by authors such as this one? While many new musicals and new authors of musicals are not particularly good, the ones Mr. Grant picks apart are not in this category. Nine by Maury Yeston is one of Broadway's best scores. Ahrens and Flaherty's Ragtime is a wonderful piece. And who in God's name could criticize Sondheim?
Mr. Grant does make one interesting point, that Hello, Dolly! killed the musical (You'll have to read the book to learn why). Because of that, I suggest reading this book. However, you can stop once you've read that part.
Excellent information & research, but author's contemptuous tone grates.......2005-07-25
"The Rise and Fall of the Broadway Musical" is largely what the title says: a detailing of the musical theatre's evolution into the so-called "golden age" of the 40's through the 60's, and subsequent descent into near-obsolesence and irrelevence. I am torn on this book, because the exhaustive and extensive research done by Grant provides a fascinating look at the form, from forgotten composers of early operettas in the late 19th-early 20th century to little-known facts and analysis of the most popular theatre composers of the golden age. In particular, his discussion and insights into the musical influences of composers is surprising and in some cases even shocking, such as Leonard Bernstein "borrowing" some of his WEST SIDE STORY melodies from earlier operetta, or the possibility that prolific orchestrator Robert Russell Bennett may have been the true unheralded genius behind shaping the primitive work of Berlin, Rodgers, Kern, etc. into memorable tunes.
On the other hand, I frequently found Grant's attitude towards contemporary shows ("contemporary" meaning every show post-1966, according to his definition) and his air of elitism annoying and borderline insufferable. His analysis from a musical standpoint of how the "classic Broadway sound" naturally reveals character and emotions better than the "rock beat" driving many newer shows is interesting, but ultimately fails to really prove his point. In other sections, Grant flies through the "modern" era of Broadway after an obsessively detailed account of an aspect of pre-1966 shows, dismissing all shows as inferior and banal and lumping them all into one category. This, in my opinion, is his largest shortcoming--how does Jason Robert Brown's PARADE (1998) fit into the same category as Andrew Lloyd Webber's SUNSET BOULEVARD (1995), or Ahrens & Flaherty's MY FAVORITE YEAR (1993) with Adam Guettel's FLOYD COLLINS (1999)? To his credit, he does attempt a few specific critcisms of certain shows and songs at certain points, such as a musical analysis/comparison of a classic showtune with a contemporary one, but again, ultimately his point is obtuse and not readily apparent (not to mention very difficult to follow if the reader has no musical training).
I wanted to give this book 5 stars, but had to knock it down to 4 because of the author's unfortunate generalizations of contemporary Broadway and general air of contempt. I disagree with many of Grant's opinions, but he has definitely made me think, and in spite of his tone it is almost certain that any fan of Broadway musicals who reads "The Rise and Fall..." will come away with a new appreciation for the art form.
Another book that hates contemporary musicals.......2005-07-08
Though there is a smattering of good information in this book, the author's misanthropic opinions will be offensive to anyone who loves contemporary musical theatre. Grant pretty much hates everything written in the last twenty-five years, hates rock and pop music, and thinks musicals should have stopped evolving during the 50s. He contends that there's only one way to create a musical, that anything that doesn't follow the Rodgers and Hammerstein model isn't really a musical, that concept musicals aren't musicals, in short, that this amazing art form should never change from what it was in the 40s and 50s.
His narrow and oddly grouchy take on this most American art form will either make you angry or depressed. If it does, just remember that he's WRONG -- the American musical has never been healthier or more vigorous, in regional theatres all over America, in Canada and Europe, and occasionally when we're lucky, even on Broadway... :)
A Smash Hit!.......2005-04-12
Mark N. Grant's first book -- "Maestros of the Pen: A History of Classical Music Criticism in America" -- was excellent (I'm not alone in this opinion: it won an ASCAP-Deems Taylor award). If anything, "The Rise and Fall of the Broadway Musical" is even better. It has the same acute analysis (at once sophisticated, and accessible to the "layman")and narrative momentum that characterized the first book. It is spiced with fascinating anecdotes. And it is ingeniously organized. Thus, rather than setting out a strictly chronological presentation of the history of the Broadway musical, it is organized according to the key elements of this art form: singing, book and lyrics (with a subset addressing the effect, on lyrics and dramatic flow, of changes in rhythmic paradigms), sound design, and direction and choreography. Essentially, it is the same story, but told from four very different points of view. The reader's understanding deepens with each shift of perspective. Furthermore, this ingenious device facilitates the coherent development of Grant's argument -- i.e., that what he perceives as the "fall" of the Broadway musical (beginning circa 1966, with the end of the "Golden Age") results from the corruption of, and/or disproportionate emphasis upon, one or or another of these elements. Whether or not you disagree with Grant's argument, his narrative will engage you because it makes you re-evaluate your own opinions. Even if your views do not change as a result of this book, you will find that they have been strengthened by the challenge. In short, I highly recommend "Rise and Fall" to anyone with an interest in music, musicals, American culture, the anatomy of the creative process, or any of the above. You are in for a treat!
Exhilarating and depressing at once.......2005-03-31
This is one of the most incisive surveys I've ever read of this vital American art form. The Golden Age of the musical, from 1927 to around 1964, gave us great art that was truly for the masses. Grant's analyses of singing styles, song types, and musical trends, is peerless. His remarks on how the microphone has damaged performance technique are vital to his thesis. It's utterly thrilling to read his narrative of how the musical grew into the glorious product of Broadway's Golden Age. But it also depresses me to consider that the musical as I've always loved it is probably doomed. This book should be required reading for every actor, director, sound designer, conductor, and arranger working on Broadway.

Engrossing..........2001-10-29
I was amazed at the aurthors ability to draw me into and make fascinating the shadowy world of the Broadway review. Anyone with even a passing interest in the origins of American popular entertainment should read this fabulous work. I had a mild interest in the subject at best, my knowledge of it being the familiarity of a few names like Eddie Cantor and Fannie Brice. This book really was informative and a fine read.
Book Description
MUSICAL! is a complete narrative history of the musical theater in the United States from the 19th century to the present day. Engaging, witty, and opinionated, this is a history that successfully navigates the course between academic lecture and entertaining survey.

This is the second in Seirawan's four volumes, taking the reader from the very basics of chess through appreciation of advanced play. He does a remarkable job of discussing tactics that usually appear only in books for advanced players and communicating them to anyone with a grasp of playing fundamentals. The first part of the book deals with basic tactics and how they can be used individually and in combination. In the second part, Seirawan introduces some of the great chess tacticians and their games, further illustrating tactics as they work out in real-life play.
Book Description
The essential guide to the use of tactics, the watchdogs of strategy that take advantage of short-term opportunities to trap or ambush an opponent and change the course of a game in a single move.
Customer Reviews:
I'm a better player now ........2007-07-05
I used to lose almost every game I played. I never took Chess serious until I played a thirteen year old and was thoroughly beaten. I knew I needed help and fast. This book broke tactics down to a level I never got from other chess books. It was not hard to follow and I learned a lot in just the first few chapters.
A good introduction to the basics of chess tactics.......2007-06-25
It has been said that chess is 99% tactics. So studying tactics is a requirement for getting better at chess.
This is the 2nd book in Yasser Seirawan's "Winning Chess" series. It discusses all of the fundamental tactical tools which should form the foundation of a solid chess player's skill. In addition Seirawan introduces readers to some of the great attacking players in chess history and their games.
Overall, I think the book did a superb job explaining the different tactics and provided ample examples and exercises to drive the points home. The only problem I noticed was either a diagram was wrong (#77) or the analysis appears to be incorrect.
I would highly recommend this book as a first book on tactics.
A must read for all serious chess players.......2007-06-25
Nobody who calls themselves a serious chess player should be without this book. With every turn of the page, my game improved. HIGHLY recommended for beginners and masters alike. Very friendly, easy to read, easy to follow book that makes you go "Ohhhh...wow!" more than once.
EXCELLENT.......2007-03-12
I have been a casual student of chess for many years, and purchased this book during a more serious phase of my playing. While I was familiar with many things in book, It does an excellent job of teaching the different tactics with different examples and a very challenging problem solving section at the end; my rating has improved as has my confidence in my playing ability.
I would recommend it regardless of your level of expertise; also good for kids, as long as they are familar with basic chess rules, terms, and principles to begin with. Great for the casual player that would like to increase their skill level
One of the best books on tactics for advanced beginners through intermediate levels. A real gem!.......2007-01-27
This book is an appropriate tactics book for every class of player. It begins with more simple motifs and proceeds to the more complex in a logicall progression. There are detailed explanations for each type of tactic with good examples and descriptive high quality analysis.
This book is organized by tactical motif and is probably the only tactics book that most beginners and intermediates will ever need. If you are very serious about the game, you may want to add a book on traps in the opening and drill different positions with a computer program or problems book. However, this book in itself along with game experience will take you to the next level of play. It is ideal for advanced beginners!
If you advanced, then CHESS TACTICS FOR ADVANCED PLAYERS by Yuri Averbakh is a nice continuation at a higher level. I also like the ART OF CHESS COMBINATION by Eugene Znosko-Borovsky. While not related to tactics at all a useful book I stumbled upon that will help with "how to practice" is called RAPID CHESS IMPROVEMENT by Michael de la Maza. This is basically a methods book about how to take all of this information on various topics and internalize it in the most rapid possible way. This last book is geared primarily to competitive players.

Bought this for my boyfriend, he loved it!.......2007-09-24
A few weeks ago I bought this used from a seller here on Amazon for my boyfriend. I thought a little bit of humor would go a long way. Of course, he happens to be a Star Trek fan as well, so it doesn't hurt. This book is funny and never truly takes it seriously.
It is ironic that this book was written by a lawyer since it was the source of big lawsuit. Paramount wanted something of a million dollars or so for copyright infringement. (This would have made their budget for lawsuits for the year-if you go by what has already been said.) The sad thing was that it shut down the industry of making books about Star Trek that were not printed by them.
Despite all this, this book is great and is a great gift to anyone dating a Star Trek fan. It will help your poor loved-one figure out what you mean when you talk trek. It might even convert him. (Well maybe not.) Best of all, you get to tell this tale on how you had to go about getting this book to him/her. They'll love it!
Damn Funny - If you have a sense of humour.......1998-07-08
This book is a blast, it's total fun. Makes fun of Star Trek fans, but isn't offensive (unless you're one of those people that don't know how to take a joke).
I've been a Trek fan forever, and loved this book tremendously, and it's quite useful for it's stated purpose. My wife peripherally knows Star Trek, but not all the details - since she married me, she's had to try and pick up details. :)
BTW, get this while you can. Paramount sucessfully sued to halt distribution of the book - because they didn't have a sense of humour.
Paramount Wins In Preliminary Injunction.......1998-06-19
I have the court papers right here referenced by the previous reviewer (whose thoughts on this book I definitely second). Paramount won against the author and his publishing group -- this book cannot be sold "pending the final determination of the court case." So get your copy now.
BTW: The last reviewer was incorrect, tho. Paramount spends a million a year and has filed over a hundred actions in the last few years to protect the Star Trek intellectual properties. And it wins . . .
ORDER NOW! :-)
Who is the book for?.......1998-06-17
When I purchased this book for my partner, it was in a gesture that he would get something from it, being a Star Trek fan by default. However, after reading the first chapter out loud to me, I confiscated the book and locked myself away in the bedroom to devour it. The trivia, quizzes, biographical information, etc. can only enhance a Star Trek fan's relationship with Star Trek itself. The quizzes have become a daily trivia question on my voice mail, with everyone calling trying to figure out the answers such as "What was Gene Roddenberry's nickname?" I have recommended this to all my ST friends.
Set your phasers on FUN! I LOVED IT!.......1998-05-09
I read in the New York Times that Paramount had filed a lawsuit to force the publisher to stop selling this book -- and that it was the first unauthorized Star Trek book to be attacked in this manner.
I can't imagine why.
This is a fun book. Light, breezy, and unique -- because it is sure to appeal to hard and soft core Trekkers alike (how many books can you say that about?). I laughed often, and I learned a whole lot about Star Trek. The author begins with biting commentary regarding movie reviewers and Star Trek's place in the Science Fiction world (basically, the Enterprise can kick just about everybody's a**). He describes and comments on major characters and aliens races (his descriptions of the Kazon are worth the price of the book alone, in his "power chart" of alien races, the Kazon rank just one notch below the Tribbles in strength and fear-factor), and he gives a necessary survival guide to Star Trek conventions and to having a conversation with a hard-core Trekker.
I had a GREAT time reading this book! Funny. Critical. Respectful. The author is a real Trek fan -- and the book is a pleasure to read.
Enough said. This is the most original Star Trek book I own, and certainly the funniest. Buy two -- one to keep, and one for that significant other in your life.......(that's the intended audience, by the way).
