| 1. |  | Marley & Me: Life and Love with the World's Worst Dog
from HarperAudio
Customer Review:
I had a Lab when I was young. I loved the puppy, but due to circumstances with my parents it had to be given away. I was crushed. So this book did bring back memories because my pup was unruly. Unfortunately I never had a chance to work with her.
Anyway this book touches on how a dog can affect... more info | 4.5 / 5.0

from Viking Adult
Price: $14.13
Customer Review:
My Stroke of Insight is one of the best books I've read. It is Dr. Jill Bolte Taylor's experience of a stroke... from the inside.

Customer Review:
How lucky we are that there are humans who dedicate their time/life to bridging the gaps to understanding the differences (and similarities) between species. My regret... is: not meeting Alex. I believe Irene's book is the next best thing. | 4.5 / 5.0

| 5. |  | When Technology Fails: A Manual for Self-Reliance & Planetary Survival
from Clear Light Books
Customer Review:
Like the title says, I only gave it 4 stars because I have not read through it. More or less it covers a variety of topics and so far very good. I figured it would be another good book to add to my library "When technology does fail". Basically most of the skills and techniques that are in it you... more info | 4.5 / 5.0

Price: $15.64
Customer Review:
With nearly eighty reviews at the time I write this, there probably isn't much more stellar insight that I can give, which hasn't already been given so much more eloquently. However, I will add my voice to the growing collection in appreciation for the amazing story and for the brave author. This... more info | 5.0 / 5.0

"I have tried in this book to present the basic concepts of randomness, to illustrate how they apply to human affairs, and to present my views that its effects are largely overlooked in our interpretations of events and in our expectations and decisions. It may come as an epiphany merely... more info | 4.5 / 5.0

from Three Rivers Press
Price: $11.16
Customer Review:
His methods have worked very well for our pit bull terrier where positive reward training has failed. In response to those who wrote reviews on his outdated wolf psychology and his harsh tactics, I believe you don't actually know his methods. He never physically harms the dogs and is quite gentle... more info | 4.0 / 5.0

Customer Review:
I enjoyed watching his tv show and finally ordered this book due to my husband buying me a new puppy. I wanted to train Sgt (new one) right. I wasn't going to end up with another Diablo (older dog). I had antisipated this book to only help with Sgt. Diablo and I had a love hate relationship. I loved... more info | 4.0 / 5.0

from Books on Tape
Customer Review:
With over 1,000 reviews on Amazon it is quite unlikely you will read anything different in my review than all the other five star reviews. I must say that Jared Diamond has written an extraordinary book. The question he tackles with GGS is, "Why and how did wealth and power develop in some areas and... more info | 4.0 / 5.0
