Just what I needed.......2005-10-19
If you are taking Accounting 1 and 2 only buy this book. Both books are in this one. No one told me to buy this book instead of the Acct. 1 book. So I bought 2 different books which was more money. I had just went by the ISBN # on Accounting 1.
(NOT AMAZON'S FAULT). I thought I would give a heads up to some of you wanting to take Acct. 1 and 2
Amazon is great!

Frustrating and disappointing and a waste of my good money........1999-11-03
STUDENTS BEWARE !!! It is frustrating, disappointing AND a waste of my good money to have bought this book, only to later discover that I could not buy the subsequent volume to cover only Chapters 16-28. I now have to purchase Ch.ONE thru 28, because these money-grabbing scoundrels did not write/publish the follow-up ! I am extremely disappointed with having to re-purchase the first 15 chapters, which are now, to me, superfluous! They are a done deal! All I need is the textbook for ch. 16-28. The Study Guide/Working Papers for 16-28 are available for purchase...why not the damned textbook???

The experts all agree on this one!.......2000-11-15
On the advice of both Al Gore and George Bush I had a look at this book. Not only is it easy to carry and pleasant to read, it facilitates forgetting those tiresome Florida recounts. I recommend this as the Great Escape read of the 21st century.
Another great book from the Hoovers........2000-03-08
Bill and Carol suggested I have a look, and it was worthwhile. Mostly true. Unfortunately the nice picture of me which appeared in Computational Statistical Mechanics (same author) was inadvertently omitted from the book
A good book about reversibility, computing, and chaos.......2000-02-26
On my wife's advice I picked up and studied this book. I find that the clarity and organization are unparalleled, truly a find among the many available books on chaos and computing. Buy it!
A terrific read.......2000-02-16
This book, written by my husband, Bill Hoover, is tops on style and content. I recommend it without reservation.
Book Description
From the bestselling author of Jane Austen in Boca, 'another witty tale that combines classic literature with contemporary social comedy.' -Hartford Courant Carla Goodman's life in Cherry Hill, New Jersey, is a little stress-ful these days, with a frazzled husband, a hyper son, and an up-coming bat mitzvah for her cranky daughter. But Carla's biggest concern is her sweet widowed mother, Jessie Kaplan, who has suddenly 'remembered' that she was Shakespeare's Dark Lady of the Sonnets in a previous life. Can even the famed Dr. Leonard Samuels, author of the self-help book, How I Stopped Worrying and Learned to Love My Mother-in-Law, help with a problem like this?
Customer Reviews:
not literary fiction, but a fun read.......2006-06-25
************************SPOILER*********************************I loved this book. I didn't think I would like it because I usually read literary fiction. This book has a few characters, which makes this book, Much ado About Jessie Kaplan a fast easy read. Carla, the main character( mother), her son is distrupting the school and causing havoc, the daughter about to become a bat mitzvah, and can't pick out the right dress, the right food and the music, the husband's practice going down the tube, between it is her mother, Jessie thinking she is shakespeare's lover. I would be ready to pull out my hair about now. Anyone, who is in the middle of planning a large reception( bar mitzvah, wedding etc) would relate to this. The question is, is it wrong for her mother to think she is shakespeare's lover. Do we let her think this way. The daughter who is becoming a Bat Mitzvah says it best in her ceremony(d'var torah). We interput things according to who we are and what we think. It's not a matter of it being true or false but of it making sense and helping us to see things that we did not see before. We can't really tell the future and we can't really understand the past- but we can find ways to interpet them that help us live our lives better."
I enjoyed reading this book, It was hilarious I could not put it down. It was a let down, when it was not as important to find the lost sonnets in Venice. But, the book had to end.
Maybe the author will sell the rights for a movie.
Book Review.......2006-04-30
Jessie Kaplan was a typical Jewish grandmother who settled every fight, served as the family counselor, and had the best chopped liver in Cherry Hill, New Jersey, but when she begins to "remember" her previous life as William Shakespeare's girlfriend, Carla Goodman becomes worried about her widowed mother. However, all this does is add to her growing list of problems: her teenage daughter's bat mitzvah's arrangements, her possibly ADHD ten-year-old son, and her husband's failing career as a gastroenterologist, not to mention her little sister's social life dilemma. This stay-at-home mother hopes she can find help in the genius Dr. Leonard Samuels's famous psychiatry skills, but if he can't help who will? The next thing she knows her ancient mother is off with some English teacher and his Yale colleagues in Venice searching for William Shakespeare's forgotten sonnets. Paula Marantz Cohen illustrates in her second fictional novel how life can be completely turned around by a four hundred year old dead guy who just happened to write a few legendary literature works on the way.
From the first page to the last, the author will make her readers laugh about the crazy Goodman-Kaplan household. First there is the unsuccessful father who needs his private practice to get back on it's feet and with the advice of his lovely wife, Mark hires a fresh out of college public relations manager with some exciting ideas. Now with a new, sleek haircut, designer suits, and all that bling, he has the ability to become the town's best and only gastroenterologist/television personality. There is also Mark and Carla's ten year old Jeffrey that has been recommended by basically all the staff to be put on Ritalin in order to stop being Cherry Hill's first junior delinquent in the fifth grade. Thankfully, after a visit to Dr. Samuels, Jeffrey discontinues consuming all sources of chocolate, including chocolate milk, which is his all time favorite, and the craziness ends. Last but not the easiest, Stephanie Goodman is a typical pre-bat mitzvah girl who can't find the right dress and will not have kosher food at her party, but surprisingly at the ceremony, the girl proved that she was ready to become a woman.
Carla's sister Margot is as messed up as the rest. She's a successful trial lawyer in sunny California and proves to be the champion at everything, except for love. Luckily for her, she finds the perfect match the way any woman would dream of, through her mother. In coincidence, it happens to be her niece's seventh grade English teacher, Hal Pearson, who looks just like William Shakespeare, in the opinion of Jessie anyway. Jessie confesses to Hal her memories of being the daughter of a wealthy Venetian sea merchant in the late 1500s, he approaches his Yale colleagues and goes on a quest to find the lost sonnets that Shakespeare wrote to Jessie, she claimed to have hidden under the floorboard of her former home.
Cohen put a great deal of effort and research into this brilliant book. Jessie's knowledge of the Shakespearean works, his astonishing love life, and the geographical details of the Getto Nuovu in Venice make the story of the Kaplans seem like something that happened in everyday occurrences. For example at back-to-school night in Hal's classroom, he mentioned the two subjects of the Shakespearean sonnets: a young man and the Dark Lady, but Jessie argues all were aimed at the lady, the male ones trying to make her jealous. She also says her knowledge was from personal experience, which set off the great expedition.
In the end, the Yale team of professors discovered no buried poems, but Hal did find the locket Jessie claimed Will had given her, during a solo visit to the old building. In everyone's best interest, he decided to keep the discovery to himself. Much Ado About Jessie Kaplan will take its readers on a crazy, historical ride that is sure to be enjoyed by all.

A quick and fun read........2005-12-28
Much Ado About Jessie Kaplan is a fun, quick, and funny read. The book is chock full of current cultural references that make the reader feel as though she's living in the world of the central characters. In the midst of planning her daughter's bat mitzvah, Carla Goodman's elderly mother, Jessie Kaplan, begins to speak and act strangely. She starts serving the family venison stew and uses obsolete vocabulary. Soon it comes out that Jessie believes she's the reincarnation of Shakespeare's love interest. The entire family thinks she's going senile; however, when Carla's English teacher, Hal, starts to press Jessie for details, he finds that her strange references are dead-on.
The plotlines that Cohen weaves together throughout this book are quirky and funny yet somehow still entirely believable. I really enjoyed the planning of Stephanie's bat mitzvah, which quickly gets out of hand (as such events often do).
I'd recommend this book to anyone looking for a fun, quick read. While it's not particularly deep, it's definitely entertaining.
Fun, but not deep.......2005-05-26
This novel was a fun little romp, especially for those who have at least a basic understanding of Shakespeare's plays. I'm not sure the end of the Jessie Kaplan plot was well explained or reasoned out, it felt too sudden (I can't give more detail for risk of ruining the plot).
My main criticism is that Cohen, while desciribing the Bar/Bat Mitzvah culture of East Coast Jews (Midwest and south is a bit more reserved), missed an opportunity to make a sharper critique of the situation in which the ceremony is downplayed and the party is the main event. Certainly Cohen issued a critique of this culutre, but it is weak at best and with a bit more humor and even exaggeration she could have made a point more forcefully. The main charachter, Carla, seems downright uninterested in the ceremony, except for the speech, for most of the book.
Good poolside reading. YOu won't gain any deep insights into the human condition. I hope that Cohen wasn't trying for that, or she missed badly.
A second wonderful book from Ms. Cohen.......2004-04-11
I enjoyed Ms. Cohen's first book, Jane Austen in Boca, so much, that when I saw that she had published a second novel, I did a little dance in front of my computer. She writes the type of book in which kind, funny, intelligent people do their best to live honorable lives despite all the obstacles that the world (and often their families and friends) throw into their paths. The characters are vivid, their problems are universal. It's lovely, smart and beautifully written book.
