Dr.Azeem Alam Khan.M.B.,B.S.,(QAU),M.ScDermatology(UK),FACP.......2001-06-11
I read this wonderful book today and find it simple,easy to read,color illustrations are there with the text.I have read this book during my Genitourinary Examination and found it very useful,this is the main reason that I bought this book.I recommend this book to all the doctors related to genitourinary medicine,dermatologists and venereologist.It is also useful for the G.P's and medical students so that they can get a basic idea about the sexually transmitted diseases and their presentations. At the end I would like to congratulate Dr.H.Hunter Handsfield on writing such a wonderful book.
Wonderful information.......2000-12-30
I believe this was a great book, it provided a lot of needed information on stds, the contraction of certain disease, etc. It was almost like a reference guide to me. It made me feel much better after i had gained all the needed knowledge. STD'S are one of those "quiet diseases", that nobody really talks about...However,you have to get your information from somewhere, right?....So why not get it from a reliable source with a huge layout of information.(even pictures) So, all in all i rate this book a 5, i doubt it could throughly describe std's any better then it did.

Labor Studies Journal review.......2004-05-02
From Blackjacks to Briefcases: A History of Commercialized Strikebreaking and Unionbusting in the United States. By Robert Michael Smith. Athens, Ohio: Ohio University Press, 2003. 179 pages. $44.95 hardback $16.95 paper. This book is as interesting as the title promises. It is an excellent little volume, succinct and well-researched. The main thesis of the book is compellingly laid out, bringing readers easily to share the author's contention that unionbusting today is much the same as it was in 1880. From Blackjacks to Briefcases deserves a place in the personal lending library of every labor educator and trade unionist in the country, and it should be passed from reader to reader. This book will fire up union supporters with frustration that labor's story is not told. Few people, even in the labor movement, know the tremendous investment and effort put into unionbusting over the past century. The book vividly demonstrates the need for labor history as an integral part of labor education and a stimulus to activism. For those who need convincing, this book presents compelling evidence of class warfare in America, even to this current day.
A good read.......2003-09-15
A thorough study of a little known aspect of the labor story. Smith explains that the labor movement has never taken hold in the United States partly because employers, since the dawn of the age of industrial upheaval and continuing until today have turned to contractors who specialized in breaking strikes and smashing unions. Packed with great quotes, plenty of insight and lots of vilonce he plows virgin ground as he uncovers the wide spread use of hired guards, like the Pinkertons or Baldwin-Felts thugs, the tactics of armies of professional strikebreakers and the machinations of labor spies and labor relations consultants. A must read for labor historian, labor members and anyone interested in modern American history.

Customer Reviews:
Brilliant World Music Compilation for Yoga.......2005-03-16
Shiva Rea continously champions the meeting place of the ancient and post-21st Century. In this collection of tracks, she calls upon the skills of Pathaan, a globe-trotting DJ famous in the UK and beyond for his Stoned Asia collection. The result: a vibrant musical palette of World Music and Electronic vibes that mesh seamlessly. Much like the Vinyasa yoga she teaches, Shiva and Pathaan's collection has a natural arc, mirroring the heartbeat of a Yoga practice. The opening tracks dawn like the morning sun, and build in heat and intensity. Amniotic's _Electric Sheep_ and Prem Joshua's remixed _Mangalam_ create the energetic spectrum of opening vinyasa and sun salutations. _Dub It_ from Gaudi, tracks from Govinda, Ikarus, and Karsh Kale stoke the fires necessary to sustain the standing poses and arm balances of a practice. And _Dreamcatcher_ from Bahramji and Maneesh de Moor, and others close the practice, deepening into the flow and opening into Relaxation.
This is a must CD for all Vinyasa flow practices. A perfectly balanced blend for all levels of Classes.

Book Description
This collection of scholarly essays examines reality television. The first show, Survivor, inspired a national craze when it aired in the summer of 2000. Ever since, successors and copycats have been on each of the four largest networks. The basics stay the same: put a group of people into situations bound to cause conflict, and watch them squirm.
Rather than criticize the series' voyeuristic appeal, this work evaluates what goes on within the text of such shows and how they reflect or affect our larger culture. Contributors include researchers from communications, sociology, political science, and psychology. The contributions cover such topics as reality television's relationships with cultural identity, publicity rights, historical perspectives, trust, decision-making strategies, political rationality, office politics, and primitivism. Each chapter includes a bibliography.

Broad scholarly treatment of a pop culture phenomenon!.......2004-01-06
I'm pleased to have authored one of the chapters in this edited volume (Chapter Five, "Reel Life: The Social Geometry of Reality Shows"). The company it appears in is an impressive array of disciplines and perspectives brought to bear on a fascinating turn in broadcast television production. The articles range from insightful to inciteful, and address more than a dozen aspects of shows ranging from Survivor to Fear Factor.
