3 out of 5 stars An interesting book to some degree........2007-10-18

The subconscious mind does have a lot of untapped potential. This book informs you of some ways you can use the subconscious mind to bring about needed or wanted changes in your life. I enjoyed it somewhat, but found little that I had not already read of heard elsewhere.

4 out of 5 stars This is Your Brain on Science.......2007-09-18

Enjoyed it once I got beyond some of the outdated references. I often wonder, with the incredible mass of information in this field, why people are not more deliberate about feeding their brain and deliberately brain washing themselves. I know I do not do what I can to feed my head. It is easier to sit in front of the tube or sit around soaking up the gas from underachieving buddies.

5 out of 5 stars Thousands Have This Priceless Gift--But Never Discover It!.......2007-08-26

This priceless gift is the understanding of how to use the power of your subconscious mind. I remember the distinct honor and privilege of being invited to Dr. Murphy's home in Beverly Hills back in 1978 where he personally enlightened me even more. I can remember now how incredibly peaceful and "holy" his living room felt. Dr. Murphy has passed on to higher realms, but his wisdom and jewels of thought are still with us. Get this book today it is your key to health, happiness, success, prosperity and peace of mind.

These are other great books along the same line as this one that I heartily recommend also:

Your Infinite Power to be Rich

Miracle of Mind Dynamics

The Amazing Laws of Cosmic Mind Power

Thank you, Dr. Murphy for your contribution to advancing humankind.

4 out of 5 stars The author has a better book of the subject.......2007-07-26

Keep thinking good and good will follow. For your ways of thinking have more concrete power than you might ever have thought... This is a pretty good book about autosuggestion / power of thoughts / self-hypnosis, but you might also want to take a look at the author's other book called "Think Yourself to Health, Wealth & Happiness: The Best of Joseph Murphy's Cosmic Wisdom". -For personally, if I had to choose between these two books, I'd get the other one. It pretty much covers this book also.

My hardcover version of this book looks like a cheapo print. There are white edges around the black cover picture, like the picture wasn't big enough for the cover. And the spinal text is printed upside down - from bottom to top...

1 out of 5 stars Judge for yourself.......2007-07-23

I got this from the net. It doesn't take a whole lot of intelligence to see how Joseph Murphy has taken words from the bible and completely twisted and perverted it's message. Murphy is like a wolf in sheep's clothing.



ONENESS WITH GOD
Rev. Joseph Murphy, Ph.D.
Excerpt from:
THIS IS IT: The Art of Metaphysical Demonstration
Church of Divine Science
Los Angeles, 3rd ed., 1948 Revised

"I AM the Lord, and there is none else, there is no God beside Me." (Isaiah 45:5). You, the reader, are the one and only being there is. When you say, "I AM," that means the sum-total of all the personalities in the world. All other conceptions are projections in space of the one being, yourself. In the Bible, which is a text book on psychology--metaphysics and man's moods and feelings--the "I AM" is constantly referred to as, "I am the way, the truth, and the life." (John 14:6). "I am the Resurrection and the Life." (John 11:25). "I am that I am." (Ex. 3:14). These and similar sayings shine forth in all their true brilliance when once we see that Jesus, the Christ, was not speaking of Himself personally, but of the principle of Being inherent in all mankind.

What Truth students fail to see is that there is only one man, for the same reason that there is only one God. God and man are one--"I am in the Father, and the Father in me." (John 14:11). You cannot divide One; infinity cannot be divided or multiplied. The seeming divisions are the illusions of separation. We must give recognition to that innermost Self which is pure Spirit, and which is not subject to any condition whatsoever. We feel that we are conditioned by time and space, but these conditions have no place in essential Being. The true recognition of the "I AM" is the acknowledgment of the Self within you. God, the Father, eternally subsisting in His own Being, sends forth all forms of His will. Likewise, all forms return to the formless One, according to an immutable law.

You, the one man, can comprehend the infinite Self within you by a limitless expansion of your conception of God. You thus return to the Universal Being as a son coming home to his father. The more we study the Bible the more we realize that, by the art of meditation--i.e., by going inward--we become greater in our knowledge and comprehension of the mysteries contained therein. The road inward is the road to greatness, the Royal Road of the Ancients, and for all men who desire to become united with the Supreme Cause, the root and substance of all.

YOU have always lived! "Before Abraham was, I AM." (John 8:58). "When all things cease to be I AM." You, man, wrote the Bible! You may have forgotten it, but if you meditate on its passages, the subjective self within you will reveal to your conscious mind what you meant, when YOU wrote it thousands of years ago.

Time is an illusion; God is the eternal NOW. Thousands of years are as an instant. Aeons are as a day. Therefore, shed now the belief in time and the idea that we have to come back again and again to this earth plane--one time as John, another visit as Mary--in order to gain more experience, to perfect ourselves and become as Jesus, the Christ.

The only loss, limitation, restriction or evil in the world is our belief in loss, our belief in limitation, our belief in restriction and our belief in evil or disease. This is known as "the son of perdition" or sense of loss spoken of in the Bible. "Come now, let us reason together, saith the Lord: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool." (Isaiah 1:18). "And their sins and iniquities will I remember no more." (Hebrews 10:17). "For thou, Lord, art good, and ready to forgive; and plenteous in mercy unto all them that call upon thee." (Ps. 86:5).


* * * * *



Yes, the things in this book might have worked, but I wonder how. This is a perfect example of what Paul spoke about the last days, of people "having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof". What Joseph Murphy says blatantly twists religion to come up with his message.

There is more to this mystery than your subconscious fixing things for you.

This CD is dreadful. The man who is reading the text has an absolutely horrid reading voice. It sounds as if he reading the phone book! I could not even finish listening to the CD--it is that bad. Do not waste your money on this and instead read the wonderful " Power of Your Subconscious Mind" by Joseph Murphey.

First of all, this book is only a collection of journal papers. However, all of the chapters provide the complete understanding of the new science - chaos theory and its underlying assumption of nonlinearity. In my opinion, this book is the bible for anyone who want to study on this area.

    Book Description

    The increased interest in nonlinear dynamical systems is largely due to recent developements in chaos theory, which have undermined the prevailing tenets of science, showing that even simple nonlinear systems can have very complex behavior, and that the evolution of chaotic systems can be unpredictable even though the equations governing them are known and no random element is involved. The application of the new theory to the study of natural and social phenomena requires both a good understanding of the mathematical concepts and methods that consitute chaos theory, and the availability of computer programs that enable the investigator to perform numerical simulations of nonlinear dynamical systems and calculate certain basic quantitative indicators. This work is the first to provide the reader with both these elements in compact form. The programs and applications are available in either DOS (on an IBM 5 1/4" disk) or Macintosh (on a 3 1/2" disk).

    Book Description

    This book is a tool for the theoretical and numerical investigation of nonlinear dynamical systems modelled by means of ordinary differential and difference equations. Special attention is given to the analysis and understanding of chaotic dynamics. The work is divided into two parts: a book, comprising a theoretical overview of the subject matter and a number of applications; and an integrated software program (called DMC) together with its manual.

    Although the emphasis is laid on dynamical systems arising from economic motivation, and the applications are derived from these systems, both the text and the program will also be of use to researchers in other fields of study. While it is not intended to be a textbook in mathematics, the mathematical language is of a precision comparable to that used in analogous books for applied scientists. The book first discusses the fundamental concepts and methods of chaos theory, and then applies these theoretical results and the facilities provided by the companion software program to models suggested by economic problems.

    The software program accompanying this book is available on disk in DOS and Macintosh formats. These can ba ordered using the order form contained in the book.

    3 out of 5 stars Chaos and Economics.......1999-02-18

    Professor Medio's work is an interesting overview on the current state of the art about the theory of chaos with respect to its applications to economics (and the capital markets). Particularly interesting are the mathematical tools explained, even if (and this is the main fault in the book) an organic 'legenda' is not provided: this resulting in an increase in reading difficulties.

        Book Description

        Until recently, development economists tended to assume a role for private enterprise in reducing poverty, but they didn't articulate it explicitly. The new institutional economics literature, with its emphasis on transaction costs, addresses the environment in which private businesses operate in various countries - the "investment climate".

        Building on this new thinking, Pathways Out of Poverty begins by citing the worldwide drop in the number of very poor people and goes on to identify the ways in which private firms and farms contribute to economic mobility and poverty reduction and what governments can do to enhance this contribution. In four Parts, the editors and contributors address economic mobility, offer numerous global examples, consider the importance of good investment climates, and examine the impact of public policies and public attitudes. Their theory, hard economic analysis, and case studies provide rich and innovative mechanisms for reducing poverty in developing and transition countries.

          The hilarious holiday handbook for those who are starting to see Scrooge's point of view.

          Let's face it-sometimes the joys of Christmas are enough to make us want to run away from home-with all of the eggnog, of course. But with a little wry humor, Ann Hodgman is here to tackle Christmas stress and bring cheer back into the holiday. Delving into such diverse topics as making Christmas for kids and adults, how many traditions are just too many, and much more, I Saw Mommy Kicking Santa Claus is full of helpful advice, recipes, and true holiday horror stories to let you know you're not alone.

          5 out of 5 stars How good is this? I loved it, and I don't even do Xmas!.......2005-01-25

          As a longtime fan of Ann Hodgman, I bought this book because I thought she would have some nice points about reducing holiday stress, and because I knew she'd make me laugh.

          Right on both points. As I said, I don't celebrate Christmas, but I have relatives who do. And as a mother with school-age kids, it's difficult not to get caught up the whole generic-holiday whirl.

          Yay, Ann, once again--a wonderful book! Not only do I recommend this for buying for yourself, it's a perfect gift for a frazzled friend to read BEFORE the leaves start falling this year. She includes just a few recipes, but I highly recommend her recipes for grapefruit terrine and for cut-out sugar cookies that don't spread into unrecognizable blobs. (I used to make dreidel-shaped cookies that bore a spooky resemblance to Xmas trees before I spread the blue frosting on them.)

          5 out of 5 stars The survival guide for the holidays!.......2004-12-15

          I usually find myself getting more and more flustered about the holidays the closer they come. By the time Christmas rolls around? Forget it! I was talking to a friend about how I feel, and she recommended this book. What a good investment! Not only is "I Saw Mommy Kicking Santa Clause" absolutely hilarious (the real-life holiday stories are a riot!)it offers concrete, sensible advice on everything from how to deal with the in-laws to how to what Christmas really means. If you've ever felt stressed around the holidays, buy this book. And I mean now!

          Referred from anohter piano player, this book offers an excellent selection of well known standards and pop tunes with one of the best arrangements for jazz piano to come by in a long time. No bass cleffs are included: this book is for piano players who use chords and improvise bass lines normally. But the chord progressions are a wonderful surprise and help illustrate what you can do with harmonics and a good bass line.

          5 out of 5 stars Great for learning jazz.......2000-09-24

          This is the best book for someone who wants to move up into the jazz arena. I was a musician for twenty years before I was brave enough to play solo jazz piano and this is one of the books that allowed me to get much better. I had bought every other jazz piano book and I did not get anything out of them. Only this and one other Mantooth book did it, with a little help from one other book. Buy it, you'll never regret it.

              Book Description

              The Commercialization of News in the Nineteenth Century traces the major transformation of newspapers from a politically based press to a commercially based press in the nineteenth century. Gerald J. Baldasty argues that broad changes in American society, the national economy, and the newspaper industry brought about this dramatic shift.
              Increasingly in the nineteenth century, news became a commodity valued more for its profitablility than for its role in informing or persuading the public on political issues. Newspapers started out as highly partisan adjuncts of political parties. As advertisers replaced political parties as the chief financial support of the press, they influenced newspapers in directing their content toward consumers, especially women. The results were recipes, fiction, contests, and features on everything from sports to fashion alongside more standard news about politics.
              Baldasty makes use of nineteenth-century materials—newspapers from throughout the era, manuscript letters from journalists and politicians, journalism and advertising trade publications, government reports—to document the changing role of the press during the period. He identifies three important phases: the partisan newspapers of the Jacksonian era (1825-1835), the transition of the press in the middle of the century, and the influence of commercialization of the news in the last two decades of the century.

                5 out of 5 stars Version Coverage.......2003-07-26

                I think John Simpson should have looked at the front cover of this book before posting his negative review. The front cover clearly states that the book covers only the Standard and Deluxe version of the software. There's no claim that it covers the Small Biz version.

                2 out of 5 stars No help for Home and Biz.......2003-06-27

                I thought this book would have info for ALL versions of MS Money 2003. Not. No mention of any of the biz version at all.

                4 out of 5 stars good but you need better advice.......2003-03-04

                This was a good book, like the dummy books easy to read etc. However, I really loved The Intersection of Joy and Money. Mackey McNeill takes you right to the core of the issue.
