Michael Paul jmhp — This is a second mystery series by Rhys Bowen and deals with the adventures of young Irish immigrant to America Molly Murphy. Set in turn of the century, 1901, New York City, the story, second in the series, follows newly arrived Molly's effort to settle into life in New York City and earn a living. She wants to be a private investigator while receiving little encouragement or support since that is not a woman's occupation. She is head strong, feisty, and grows more liberated as she becomes involved with members of the newly developing artist community in the Village area of the city. Story line revolves around Molly's efforts to prove she can be a private investigator by solving the murder of the investigator who she was trying to get to train her to become one.

Jahedul Islam jikhan9267ce — A delightful and strange adventure story in the vein of The Three Musketeers or The Scarlet Pimpernel, but also an early foreshadow of the Mannerpunk genre which grew out of Peake's Gormenghast books. The well-researched text creates a believable world which is undoubtedly (and delightfully) removed from the modern. Not only does Doyle (of Sherlock Holmes fame) create a fairly accurate portrait of ever-warring Feudal Europe, but at least proposes a psychological type for the soldiers of the time. Of course, to take such a type from (even contemporary) works is a bit of a silly falsehood, and with characteristic British whimsy, Doyle births a cast which seems realistic not despite but because of its deep-seated eccentricity. Of course, it is precisely this method which will grip Peake (in the wake of Chekhov) in his surrealistic works. Though once quite popular, this tale has become somewhat less well-known, perhaps because it is easy to take from it a stance of bravado, militarism, and anglocentrism. Perhaps there will come to us a dissolving of such strong self-identifications with such things that people will no longer feel a need to oppose fictional portrayals, and Doyle and Kipling may return with a grain of salt.

Daniel Borberg daniel02ae — A case of excellent, thorough research combined with a surprising subject. Fast food is so ubiquitous you think you must know all you want to know about it, but there's so much here that astonishes, and the author is a terrific writer.

Rimantas Pocius _imantas — Para mí todos los libros de Isabel Allende son recomendables y este no es una excepción. Es una descripción de parte de la conquista de Chile vista desde el punto de vista femenino

René Estébanez renefotografo — The psychology of the mind and how we operate is always a fascinating subject, but I suppose I was expecting more. Lakoff is clearly a "progressive," and it shows. Not that that's a bad thing, but I think the book would have benefited from being more balanced and accessible from a wider variety of political perspectives. But maybe that's what he wanted - this should only be a tool to be used by progressives for furthering their agenda, since he believes that conservatives have already done a great job framing their agenda (to our detriment). What I got out of it was a more general understanding of how we need to frame issues, be the political, social, religious, or business, if we want to change minds and have an impact. Brains are wired a certain way and how we approach things is important to "winning hearts and minds." As much as we would like to think we are "new enlightenment" rational actors, our brains just don't work that way. Perhaps knowing this and taking advantage of it is a bit subversive, but it's better than hitting your head against the brick wall. Emotions matter, symbols matter, word choices matters. All of these can be used to influence others. This book appears to be an expansion of his previous work "Don't Think of an Elephant." I have not read that book, but browsed it at the library and am fairly confident that The Political Mind (at 304 pages) covers everything in the smaller "Don't Think of an Elephant."
