Book Description
Endless travel in cyberspace, virtual reality, and the dream of limitless speed: technology changes our sense of self. In her new book, Trinh Minh-ha explores the way technology transforms our perception of reality.
"We are all engaged in social rituals in our daily activities, she writes, "and by remaining unaware of their artistic ritual propensity, we remain 'in conformity'." Her goal, as a thinker and an artist, is to transform our understanding of technology and speed so that we are able to "turn an instrument into a creative tool and to step out of the one-dimensional, technologically servile mind."
The paradox that "stillness contains speed within it" is central to Trinh's concept of the digital apparatus. With her signature amalgam of feminism, Eastern philosophy, and practical understanding of filmmaking, Trinh Minh-ha presents a much-needed advance in our concept of the real in a technological age.

Book Description
Carl Dahlhaus here treats Nietzsche's youthful analysis of the contradictions in Wagner's doctrine (and, more generally, in romantic musical aesthetics); the question of periodicization in romantic and neo-romantic music; the underlying kinship between Brahms's and Wagner's responses to the central musical problems of their time; and the true significance of musical nationalism. Included in this volume is Walter Kauffman's translation of the previously unpublished fragment, "On Music and Words," by the young Nietzsche.

These are the coolest books!.......2007-01-11
The whole family spends time together looking at them. It's amazing to see the pictures pop out at you and to figure out what they are.
How do they do that?.......1999-12-01
These 3-D things really irked me until I finally got it. I don't have a clue as to how it works but all of a sudden I saw a snowman on the bookcover! Nice stocking stuffer kind of book.
A Christmas Eve tradition for our family........1999-11-16
My daughter loves the, "...'Twas the night before Christmas..." poem. We pass the book around so everyone can see the 3-D pictures (which drives my husband crazy!...he can't see 'em!) Very clever.
Book Description
It was the night before Christmas, and all through the shop,
the pets did not stir, or scamper, or hop. This Level 2 reader is a retelling of the famous poem, "The Night Before Christmas," but with a new twist--all of the characters are Littlest Pet Shop pets!

Book Description
All across the country, home ownership rates are at their highest levels in years. With prices escalating monthly in the most popular areas, buyers need to look carefully before they leap. And the best place to find the information they need to make a wise home purchase is this superb new guide by award-winning journalist and real estate expert Elizabeth Razzi, which focuses as much on lifestyle as on finances.
Taking a consumer-advocate approach to buying a home, Razzi tackles all of the important financial issues, and explains what a home buyer (particularly a first-time buyer) needs to know about selecting brokers, agents, and mortgage bankers. What separates this book from the pack is that it also addresses important lifestyle matters: How do you size up a neighborhood? Tour a house? Anticipate what a home will actually be like to live in? The first in a projected new series of "Fearless" real estate titles, this book provides the kind of positive, authoritative advice that will turn any nervous home buyer into a fearless home buyer.·
By an award-winning real estate journalist
Written specifically for the non-investor-the millions of Americans who are buying a home to actually live in
Fresh consumer-advocate's approach to buying a home transforms nervous home buyers into fearless home buyers
Explains everything the first-time or move-up buyer needs to know about staying in control of the deal-from getting a mortgage to the closing
Discusses the lifestyle issues to be considered before buying a home: how to select a neighborhood; the pros and cons of different house styles; how to test the commute
Customer Reviews:
breezy but meaty.......2006-09-19
A must-read for anyone desiring to remain truly fearless through one of the most traumatic experiences of his or her adult life. Not just well thought-out, this book is very well written. Much like the house on the cover, Razzi's sage advice can keep the deal from getting out of hand.
Razzi Rules - snappy and smart.......2006-06-03
Razzi's Rules for Staying in Control of the Deal is a rare combination - a fast, engaging read that is also jam-packed with good information. Her snappy writing style keeps you moving through the book while imparting lots of good ideas for the home buying experience. The information is practical and accessible. Following these rules would really feel like you had a "net" under you on the high wire act of buying a home.
razzi's rules review.......2006-03-23
