While I agree with the premise and was looking forward to great book, I was very disappointed in the author's presentation.

He was very repetitive and treated the readers condescendingly. He made each point satisfactorally and then proceded to explain what he meant ad ifinitum.

He should have known that readers of this book didn't need to be led or convinced.

The NEC 2008 Handbook is a great book. It's the best non-addictive cure for insomnia since Benadryl. It's thick enough to be used as a pillow -- and yet, at the same time, its hard cover makes it an ideal lap table for working while commuting via bus or rail. It's heavy enough to be used as both a doorstop and a weapon of self-defense.

The story line is a little weak in places, and I don't think we'll ever see a movie version of it, but I predict that it will be invaluable to archaeologists 2000 years from now.

(Honestly, I'm not sure how to review a handbook for the National Electric Code, but I can say that the explanatory text and accompanying illustrations make the Code do a good job of explaining the Code and, hopefully, making it easier to remember.)

Tabs are well constructed, but if you use your code book a lot the thin pages might tear at the tab edges. I prevent this by applying a short strip of quality clear tape across the tab attatchment area.

Not really sure how to review this, but it is necessary for those of us who want to stay compliant and up to date with building regulations. It isn't necessarily easy to read, but like I said, it is what it is. :)

This was exactly what I expected. In the professional engineering circles, it is important to maintain the latest specifications on which your analyses must be based.

This book was extremely helpful when I was preparing for my child's annual IEP meeting. I was able to support all my requests for my child's education with the law and received all the support and services needed and appropriate for my child to succeed. It was a pleasant meeting because I was knowledgeable.

Nola does an excellent job of reviewing Employment Laws in an easy to understand and concise manner. Human Resource departments could benefit by making sure every manager has this book and understands the content. They would save themselves a lot of time backtracking after the fact with when legal issues arise that could easily have been prevented.

This edition has been revised, updated and expanded to include many changes and more detailed coverage.

10.Eichmann in Jerusalem: A Report on the Banality of Evil (Penguin Classics) by: Hannah Arendt

Arendt's analysis of the "banality of evil" characterized by Adolf Eichmann is a chilling look into how evil can be systematized, how it can be seemingly bureaucratic, and how normal people can be turned into monsters through law.

This is a great book for anyone interested in World War 2, the Holocaust, political philosophy, or getting really really depressed.
