Book Description
The Encyclopedia of Public Choice offers a detailed and comprehensive account of the subject that deals with the intersection of economics and political science. Its fruitful exchange among ethics, moral and political philosophy, and law, as well as economics and political science, examines the image of man as a purposive and rational actor. Its balanced coverage, which reflects the various public choice methodologies and approaches, is thoughtful, comprehensive, lively, and original. It will be the definitive reference source for decades to come.
Volume I includes biographies of the major figures in public choice, those who set the scene for the disciplines and those who have made major contributions to its development and essays written by leading senior public choice scholars. Their important, and occasionally controversial, themes offer in-depth analysis and reflection beyond the scope of standard works.
Volume II defines in detail the core concepts associated with the discipline.

Book Description
Dedication, from Enchanted Whispers:
This book started as a collection of approximately a million `post it' notes highlighting my daughters' accomplishments. They were meant to be inscribed in their childhood journals but never quite made it there in the order in which they occurred.
"Here's to you, girls. A unique version of your childhood journals. Some of the amusingly inspiring things you've done and said through `our formative' years."
Unlike my mother, who became a mother at the age of twenty, I became a mother at the age of 35. It was on the day of my first baby's birth I realized Motherhood is an eternal gift. For now I have my own children to love and guide.... Yet with each hug I receive and lesson I teach, I too, acquire a world of knowledge.
My mother died nearly five years ago and in a strange way her death encouraged me to make this book a reality. Her presence in my life, and thus in my daughters' lives, is everlasting.
"Here it is, Mom. The proof is in the print."
Customer Reviews:
Enchanted, every page!.......2006-01-13
The title of the book says it all. It's definitely an enchanting read, in one sitting or in a month of Sundays. Lessons children learn are tempered through their delicate voices (although Momma has great bits of wisdom to add regarding the importance of letting our kids be kids). The passages are humorous, and yet, heartwarming and thought provoking at the same time. Quite an accomplishment for a first time author. Can't wait to see what Jean Lanahan comes up with next.

Customer Reviews:
From the Mouths of Babes Review.......2002-02-20
This is a lovely collection of children's heartfelt reactions to the tragedy of September 11, 2001. It will serve as an excellent tool to help kids and adults put their own feelings in order. It covers the gamut of emotions and bravely includes humor. Who could say it better than this four-year-old writing to God: "Please help us and the people with their owies."
A wonder of childrens wisdom and vision.......2002-01-17
We so often think of our children as needing wisdom from us. I bought this book because I work with children and I wanted to know better how to help them. I learned from this book how to help guide them and I also saw the amazing resources they carry with in their tender little beating hearts. This book is a wonder and will fill you with hope, pride and most importantly, a belief in our children and their great wisdom,strength and resiliency. This will warm you heart and fill you with pride for our young peaple. It has been wonderful for my class to read this too. It has opened up a great way to talk about fears as well as strengths.
From the Mouths of Babes.......2002-01-15
From the Mouths of Babes is pure heart and spirit transcended onto the printed page. Each word, a morsel of pure delight and heart-warming sustenance. I have gained much insight into my own journey back to 'innocence' and have felt the present journey of the many contributors.
Compelling project!!.......2002-01-15
When my son brought home a flyer from school, he was eager to participate in this project. The assignment: for children to write down their thoughts about what happened on September 11th, 2001. My son is an avid reader/writer, but had no idea that his entry would eventually be published, nor of the positive ramifications of the book itself.
This is a very emotionally charged, compelling collage of children's thoughts. Without pride, predudice or experience, these tikes have shown their hearts on their sleeves. I immediately ordered 10 copies which we have given away as presents... and most of the recipients have asked for more!
This is a real page turner, and eye opener. We adults should take heed of the lesson these children so inocently (and yet eloquently) put into words. After learning that proceeds will go to help orphaned children of 9/11, my son said "I had no idea that what I did was so important". But this can't happen unless we spread the word.
Children's Feelings, Children's Voices.......2002-01-14
I was deeply moved reading this collection of children's statements about the tragedy of 9/11. Children are seldom listened to when adults are anguished. We owe Wendy Keller much gratitude for this powerful, heartfelt record of children's feelings and children's voices.

The characters in "From the Mouths of Babes" live in everyoneÂ's family. The reader, with the turn of each page, will undoubtedly, recognize some little one, who lives in their life.
Customer Reviews:
Geritol for the soul.......2003-03-19
A reporter described "From the Mouths of Babes" as "an elixir, a tonic, a literary Geritol for the soul. It's a feel good book, just what the doctor orders when someone needs a lift as well as a laugh." I read it and could not agree more!
Laugh!!.......2002-06-06
Funny, funny, book! Anyone with children, grandchildren, or anyone, for that matter, will love it!
Anecdotes Rather Than Quotes.......2002-05-31
This is an amusing book, but not really a quote book. Instead, it offers brief anecdotes. A fun read, but not too useful for the serious collector of quotations.
Repeat Performance.......2002-05-29
My wife and I read "From the Mouths of Babes," and had a lot of good laughs, put it down, only to pick it up later and laugh all over again. It just doesn't get tired!
Zeke R.
What a funny book.......2002-03-21
I origionally bought this book as a gift for a baby shower. I started reading through it and couldn't stop laughing! The pages are already curled up at the edges!! Needless to say, I had to re-order another one for the mom to be. From the Mouths of Babes was a huge hit at the shower! This book was not put down once and it seemed everyone laughed and had a story that could relate to the innocence of a child.
I would also like to add that the touch poems written through the eyes of a child is so unique. Anyone who has children can relate to this book. It's funny how children SAY what only adults would THINK. I feel the title sums it up perfectly ... From the Mouth's of Babes.

Being a guy is tough enough, what with coaches, teachers, and parents always on your back. Add insane girlfriends to the mix, and a guy can go postal. What are these girls thinking, anyway? But when Sugar and Josh cook up the brilliant idea to install a Novak-cam to spy on the girls at their most candid, things don't go quite as they had hoped. Turns out, what we don't know, we usually don't want to know.

Book Description
Effectively disproving any notion that Christians are relentlessly dour, melancholy, humorless, and joyless, these books from Cal and Rose Samra offer a rib-tickling treasury of Christian joy and humor. They're as ideally suited to individuals and families looking for a laugh as they are to pastors, speakers, and all those who seek to spice up their presentations - and their lives -
with a few power-packed moments of Holy Humor.
For more than a decade, the interdenominational Fellowship of Merry Christians has been publishing The Joyful Noiseletter, an award-winning newsletter filled with church life humor by some of the world's top comedians, humorists, clowns, and cartoonists. Now, the most snicker-spurring and laughter-inciting of these comical contributions are available in four uproarious trade paperback collections and four mini-giftbooks!
Featuring cartoons by such gifted cartoonists as Bil Keane, creator of The Family Circus, and Johnny Hart, creator of B.C., these collections by editors Cal and Rose Samra are a virtual treasury of good, clean, inspirational humor. Within the pages of each book, readers will find enough knee-slapping jokes, uplifting anecdotes, zingy one-liners, joyful Scripture references, inspiring stories, top ten lists, clean limericks, church cartoons, real-life "uh-ohs," bulletin bloopers, and "jestimonials" from pastors, health professionals, chaplains, and patients to make them laugh from start to finish!
Conveniently arranged by topic or month for easy use, each book is ideal for pastors, teachers, public speakers, and all who seek to fill their lives with God-inspired joy and holy laughter, to help them face the challenges of life.

Customer Reviews:
This could happen to you, too..........2002-04-17
As the book explains, Dr. Grey was accused of sexually abusing a little girl in Sunday School. The basis of the allegation was a nightmare reported by the girl's mother, endorsed by the pastor, and left unquestioned by the congregation. During the trial, prosecution witnesses couldn't get their individual stories straight, much less their corporate story. Unfortunately for Dr. Grey, the careless actions of a handful of people were allowed to wreak havoc on his life.
The author faced 30 years in jail. He had a standing plea offer throughout the trial by which he could have avoided any jail time. Yet he and his wife chose to pay the price of a trial--both psychological and financial--in a effort to clear his name.
This book is not so much a self defense as it is a hindsight-enabled reconstruction of what went wrong in the author's case and why. You'll learn what could happen to you, too, if three bad things converge:
1) some untrusting person accuses you of an unspeakable crime,
2) an authority figure is too quick to take your accuser?s side, and
3) "good people" do nothing.
This 240 page book can be divided into equal thirds as follows:
1. Pre-trial. The author provides detail about himself. This establishes his credibility, but also helps us see things from the state's perspective and from the perspective of his accusers. There?s also enlightening info about polygraph exams, police roles, choosing a lawyer, and courtroom strategy.
2. Trial. The middle third is mainly a reprint of court transcripts. Key testimonies are those of the alleged victim, her mother, and the pastor. As the transcripts represent, the one person who should have been able to shed light evenhandedly--the pastor--wasn?t up to the task. It was as if his church were on trial, and he conciously chose to sacrifice one innocent man to save his life?s work.
3. Post-trial. First the author speculates about what he could have / should have done differently, with an eye toward helping others who may face similar crises. Then he takes a broader look at the state of the American judicial system on the specific issue of "presumed innocence" in light of allegations of sexual misconduct.
The author has a PhD in physics, so his writing is quite organized and readable. Yet, since he's not a psychologist or a lawyer, he treats the subject in a most practical way. Further, Dr. Grey has done a commendable job of showing understanding toward his accusers and being objective about his own shortcomings.
I wish I could give this book 5 stars, but it's just not the kind of thing you want to keep on your coffee table. Yet if I were the head of any organization involved with child care--esp. a pastor with a nursery / sunday school ministry--I would make this book required reading for all associated personnel.

Customer Reviews:
This is a musical score, not just piano........2006-01-25
I would personally prefer just the piano transcription as sheet music. This book is written out as a musical score (as advertised) with each instrument, so one song takes many pages.
Terrific!.......2005-02-22
The transcriptions here are almost note-for-note with the album, for every song. While this can mean that if you're looking for a pseudo-version that doesn't require you to sing, you'll be disappointed, it also means that you're free to get creative and play parts which otherwise might not have been included (Enjoy that guitar riff and want to play it on the piano? Never fear, it's right there in front of you)
While the keyboard part might in turn be a little simpler than some "interpretation"/attempt to meld bass, guitar, piano and drum part into a song for one performer, it is truer to Ben Folds and company.
While some songs will make a lone keyboardist wish for a drummer, bassist and back-up vocalists on-call (Regrets, Red Neck Past), certain songs are just a joy to play, ("Army," "Magic," and "Lullabye" are my favorites).
This book is fantastic and does exactly what it set-out to do: Transcribe note-for-note a wonderful, amazing album.

The Shame of the Nation: The Restoration of Apartheid Schooling in America
ASIN: 0415929105 |
Book Description
This book looks at how the construction of blacks as unreasonable and illiberal in North American society creates obstacles in efforts to create equity in education. Examining the infamous conflict between a predominantly black community and a predominantly Jewish teacher's union, this story shows the limitations of some class narratives and the problematic misrepresentations of anti-Semitism that impede struggles for racial and social justice in Northeast urban areas.

Success is elusive but content is good.......2007-09-06
My experience was similar to that of "gordo the lordo." Plenty of clicks but just a few orders.
I give the book a high rating, however, because the content is good. The chapter on managing your campaigns is especially worthwhile. The book gives you everything you need to know to get started. The author is helpful with his Affiliate Millions website. I asked him for pointers. All he could say was I needed to write better ads.
If you are lucky enough to crack the code this is a fabulous way to make a living. You get your ads up and running, tinker with them, and watch the money roll in. I wish I could have pulled it off. I didn't, but I don't blame the book.
Didn't work for me.......2007-08-21
I tried the principles in this book. I set up some ads for a variety of products and different companies through Commission Junction and was, at first, delighted that I was getting a good amount of clicks. I was confident the ads were good enough because of some experience I've had in the past writing copy.
However, after over 250 clicks to major websites that boasted a large earnings per click, I got one sale and a large $ loss. The ads were good enough to catch the people's attention, but no one was buying.
I think this is a tough way to go at it. A website might be the better way to go. I am amazed that anyone could make any money doing this, never mind millions.
Direct and Immediately Useful.......2007-07-24
I was seeking a detailed, practical and thorough "how-to" approach to build internet-based revenue. This book filled the bill. It covered all key facets of the approach - particularly helpful for a layperson - as well as for someone with web-based experience (as am I). I have yet to test the specific recommendations. The book was solid.
Basic start but could leave you broke.........2007-07-12
Its true that money can be made by signing up for affiliate programs and marketing them on pay per click search engines. However, its possible to lose a great deal of money and this book doesn't do a good enough job helping people calculate the risks. For example, the author indicates he markets Amazon products. Amazon on its basic associate program pays 4%. A $20.00 book pays a comission of .80 cents. But in pay per click advertising a marketer can pay 30, 40 cents and even a dollar depending on the keywords. In a test marketing the new Harry Potter book (book 5) I spent over 9.00 in ppc ads that resulted in 4 sales. The click thru to sale was 13%... which isn't bad. The point is, I earned only about $2, but spent over $9.00 to earn it (a loss of $7.00). The author doesn't explain how to choose affiliate programs in terms of cost vs. payoff. Anyone who reads this book will get some basic information, but before spending money on ppc advertising they'd be better off buying The Ultimate Guide to Google Adwords which does a better job explaining keywords, writing effective ads and managing campaigns.
This is a great book.......2007-07-10
A great book about search marketing and how to become a search marketer, also very helpful for people who have their own websites. I was motivated enough to start my own website, [...].

A hodge-podge of dated material.......2007-02-06
When this book first came out, though disorganized and overpriced, I thought it one of the Dietels' better efforts since it showed genuine enthusiasm for the subject and a sampling of all of the technologies involved in E-Business programming. But now, it is just a hodge-podge of outdated information that does not give enough detail to be helpful. Instead, if you are a newcomer to the technologies in this book and to web programming in general, you are going to need several books to replace this one book. Take a look at the Listmania entitled "My Favorite Web Development and Design Books" for a place to start. This is an excellent set of books that will get you started. It's a recent list - it was only created in December 2006 - so the books are all up-to-date. The creator of this list is obviously a Wrox Press fan, but that's OK since Wrox prints some great and accessible books on web programming and e-commerce. Go to Google and type in the Listmania name in quotations and it should be the first returned address in the list.
disappointing.......2006-08-02
A collection of tons of information! Too bad it is put together in such a poor organizational fashion. Difficult to follow from start to finish.
Also, I'm not sure what the deal is with "Shiny" pages, but this text is printed on pages that are so shiny that reading it was a challenge. I had to hold it at just the right angle to prevent intrusive glare.
I will be a while before I purchase a book of this type online without checking it out in a book store before hand.
Very Resourceful..........2005-11-27
This book is very resourcefull. It shows you various web scripting languages, provides examples and sample questions. If you are not familiar with scripting language this can be a starting point for you.
skips needed information.......2005-10-16
The book wastes your time talking about what is on the Internet (and what the Internet is - hello, the year is 2005!) instead of teaching you how to program for it. It is not a programming book but an extensive advertisement for off-the-shelf programs and various websites. The CD does not contain the information indicated in the book, nor does the website. I attempted to contact them about this, but received no answer. I have enjoyed other Dietel books, but this one really falls short of their standard. You better know VBscript or JavaScript before attempting to use this text.
Outdated.......2005-08-10
The CDs that come with this book don't work with Windows XP or other modern operating systems. The content is outdated and the book should be removed from the shelves!
