Book Description
Help children cultivate their gardens--and grow beautifully along with them. These 40 rewarding projects take youngsters away from the TV and out into the fresh air, to channel youthful energies in exciting new ways. And parents share in the fun, too--whether it's helping to grow an herb garden in a box or making a mosaic sundial. Introduce budding gardeners to the satisfaction of planting and harvesting their own vegetables and flowers, the creative challenge of carving gourds, and the scientific experience of building a weather station, as well as the opportunity to explore the wonders of nature, right in their own backyards.

Not what I expected!.......2007-09-03
I thought I was buying a book on Amaryllis and since there wasn't any information on this book it wasn't what I was expecting. All the book is about is one lady gardening. Very boring and definetly over priced at that.

Book Description
Documentary Filmmaking for the Digital Age is a filmmaker's story--a look at how the author, with no formal training taught himself to make an independent documentary film that appealed to a wide audience. Instead of spending countless hours in the classroom and wasting energy on film school politics, Michael Wranovics undertook the ultimate educational experience: he went out and made a film that works. More than a simple narrative and anecdotal look at the making of Up for Grabs (a documentary about the legal battle over rightful ownership of Barry Bonds's 73rd home run ball), it discusses the technical and theoretical aspects of making documentary films. Through instructional words and images, it demystifies the filmmaking process and equips readers with the tools they need to make their own magnum opus. Using his own personal stories, the author imparts lessons in an engaging tone, making documentary filmmaking accessible to the average reader.

Camp: Queer Aesthetics and the Performing Subject--A Reader (Triangulations: Lesbian/Gay/Queer Theater/Drama/Performance)
ASIN: 0520215877 |
Book Description
In this fresh and innovative study, Judith A. Peraino investigates how music has been used throughout history to call into question norms of gender and sexuality. Beginning with a close examination of the mythology surrounding the sirens--whose music seduced Ulysses into a state of mind in which he would gladly sacrifice everything for the illicit pleasures promised in their song--Peraino goes on to consider the musical creatures, musical gods and demigods, musical humans, and music-addled listeners who have been associated with behavior that breaches social conventions. She deftly employs a sophisticated reading of Foucault as an organizational principle as well as a philosophical focus to survey seductive and transgressive queerness in music from the Greeks through the Middle Ages and to the contemporary period. Listening to the Sirens analyzes the musical ways in which queer individuals express and discipline their desire, represent themselves, build communities, and subvert heterosexual expectations. It covers a wide range of music including medieval songs, works by Handel, Tchaikovsky and Britten, women's music and disco, performers such as Judy Garland, Melissa Etheridge, Madonna, and Marilyn Manson, and the movies The Rocky Horror Picture Show and Hedwig and the Angry Inch.

Product Description
In the highly praised The Market for Virtue, David Vogel presents a clear, balanced analysis of the contemporary corporate social responsibility (CSR) movement in the United States and Europe. In this updated paperback edition, Vogel discusses recent CSR initiatives and responds to new developments in the CSR debate. He asserts that while the movement has achieved success in improving some labor, human rights, and environmental practices in developing countries, there are limits to improving corporate conduct without more extensive and effective government regulation. Put simply, Vogel believes that there is a market for virtue, but it is limited by the substantial costs of socially responsible business behavior.
Customer Reviews:
An invaluable resource offering a serious-minded, in-depth discussion of a complex issue.......2007-01-06
Written by Professor of Business Ethics (Haas School of Business) David Vogel, The Market for Virtue: The Potential and Limits of Corporate Social Responsibility is a scholarly examination of a politically charged and highly polarized debate concerning what corporate social responsibility can, cannot, and must accomplish in a modern capitalist economy. Chapters explore answers to and differing perspectives on the questions "Is there a business case for virtue?" and "What is the demand for virtue?" as well as examining corporate responsibility with regard to both the environment and human rights. Extensively researched, The Market for Virtue is an invaluable resource offering a serious-minded, in-depth discussion of a complex issue. Enthusiastically recommended especially for college library shelves, and invaluable reading for activists, businessmen, and legal personnel grappling with all dimensions of the interests and responsibilities of corporations.
Excellent: Balanced, Readable and Practical.......2006-02-22
Vogel has provided us with a much needed skeptics eye view of Corporate Social Resposibility. This book is a very accesible and practical guide for the manager who is beset with open ended questions and needs realistic answers to a difficult subject. The "needs to have" are separated from the "nices to have", the realistic from the theoretical.
At less than 200 pages, this is the one book the operating manager needs to read on the subject.

Best Book on the Subject.......2005-10-07
Vogel's THE MARKET FOR VIRTUE is a balanced and objective review of the many activites that fall under the rubric of "corporate social responsibility." He convincingly shows that these are over-ballyhooed by their enthusiasts, and over-disparaged by their critics. In fact, they make useful, albeit marginal, contributions to the welfare of communities and society. He draws useful distinctions between the many different manifestations of CSR, and offers thoughtful metrics for evaluating them. He cites literally hundreds of examples, and helps the reader to think about them in a rigorous and disciplined way. This is a must-read for corporate executives and business students.
