Editorial Review Product Description "[Polzin's] book... will profoundly affect biblical scholarship for at least a generation." -- Frank Kermode "[A] suggestive and rich book, written in a clear and witty style." -- Marc Z. Brettler, The Journal of Religion "Literary commentary at its best." -- Adele Berlin Customer Reviews (1)
A fresh perspective with a nod to those who have gone before Polzin's literary analysis is also a tremendous addition to the field.In many areas where the text has been generally thought of as contradictory, he finds plausible interpretations that create continuity and add to the meaning of the text.Further, his understanding of the redactors possible intent greatly enhances the readers understanding of the primary text. Finally, the theological implications of his commentary deserve consideration.Polzin brings the characters of Samuel and Saul, two of the Bibles most interesting personalities, fully to life.His exploration of their flaws and failures as well as their successes makes his interpretations that much more meaningful. While not always easy, the text is a must addition for any serious or aspiring scholar of these texts.If you are a beginner, begin with a good translation and easier linear commentary like Alter or Fox.If you want to go deeper, I urge you to purchase this important text. ...

All Around Town - Photographs of Richard Samuel Roberts
A photographic window into African-American history This book is full of wonderful images: a proud graduate in cap and gown, a baseball team, uniformed schoolgirls, a couple posing with a classic car, a man with a dog, a young soldier in uniform, and much more. There are some particularly nice pictures of children that should appeal to contemporary kids. Together these pictures offer a moving glimpse into the lives of African-Americans in Roberts' time. Roberts had a real gift for photography, and the format of this book makes that gift accessible to young readers. Highly recommended. ... Read more |

Editorial Review Product Description Most problems presented in core texts are repetitious and require students merely to do some computation, look something up in a table, or recall the proper Excel command. Even study guides and review manuals do not push the student beyond this introductory level. 101 Special Practice Problems in Probability and Statistics, fourth edition, challenges students to think at a higher than basic level, without involving a higher level of mathematics, while still teaching them to solve diverse groups of problems such as those they find on most exams. The book s approach will put an end to the frequently heard student lament, I did fine on the homework, but I was BLOWN AWAY by the exam!This new edition contains additional class-tested problems to further increase an emphasis on the use of Excel. A mini CD-ROM containing data sets for the appropriate problems, is included with each book. |

Review from Kramskoy
Disappointing
The Complete Book of Tracking
Comprehensive tracking reference The book also covers more advanced topics of tracking systems such as situation assessment and sensor management. Here the authors have, unfortunately, decided to largely adopt a fuzzy logic approach and a POOR theoretical grounding of the work. These sections can be ignored. Despite the poor sections on high level aspects the rest of the book is excellent and a solid reference for any one working on tracking systems. It might is a solid reference, but it is much too expensive (and to comprehensive) to be used for teaching. ... Read more |

Editorial Review Book Description Prints—etchings, woodcuts, linoleum cuts, lithographs, and serigraphs—began to flourish as artistic media after World War I due to their affordability and an expanding market of art consumers. The American Scene movement, which arose in the 1920s and surged through the 1930s and 1940s, emphasized regionalism and embraced printmaking in particular as a medium well suited to portraying regional life. The American South became a focus for many artists and gave rise to some of the most aesthetically powerful practitioners of printmaking. In this book, Lynn Barstis Williams outlines the history of printmaking in the South, its rise in popularity, its variations from region to region, the different methods embraced by printmakers, the growth of the print society movement, and the influence of social realism, New Deal art programs, and the Arts and Crafts movement on the aesthetics of southern printmakers. She also reviews the motifs, imagery, and subject matter that predominated in the work of many southern printmakers—the natural world, farms and farmers at work, rural architecture and townscapes, African-American life, religious gatherings, and scenes of leisure and play (hunting, dancing, music-playing). As a finale, the author presents a catalog of 60 entries on printmakers of note, including a biographical sketch, representative sample of their work, and analysis of their imagery. This book accompanies an exhibition entitled, “Imprinting the South: Works on Paper from the Collection of Lynn Barstis Williams and Stephen J. Goldfarb” scheduled to run from July 21 — September 16, 2007, at the Georgia Museum of Art in Athens and in the winter of 2009 at the Jule Collins Smith Museum at Auburn University.
