It wasn't as good as I thought it was going to be. 90% of the stuff in here was common sense or stuff our parents taught us years and years ago. I ended up passing it on to a friend who was talking about buying it herself. Thought I'd save her some cash and maybe save yet another book from going in the trash.

I gave these bags away as gifts and everyone loved them. They are much larger than the bags you will buy at the grocery store. They are sturdy and comfortable to hold. And they look exactly like the bags in the pictures, so no surprises there. Definitely a great buy and I would recommend these bags to everyone.

I bought these bags because they were more attractive than those sold by my grocery store and because they didn't have advertising logos. However, two of the bags split at the seems after only a few uses. Also, the insulated bags made by the same manufacturer are flat - they hold very little and do not have square bottoms - not so good for groceries.

This book helps balance the usual Eurocentric emphasis on genocide. The reader learns that 800,000 humans were slain in Rwanda during a 100-day period in 1994. This is a greater rate than that of the Jews by the Germans during WWII.

In Darfur, non-Arab peoples were targeted. The governments chose the most extreme form of counterinsurgency in the world: drain the pond to catch the fish. (The pond, in this metaphor, represents an entire ethnic group, and the fish represent those who actively oppose the government). The governments also played one group off against others. Gang rapes and harsh slavery were the order of the day. The desert contained the dehydrated bodies of the victims.

As for activism, one can picture the hindrance caused by the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse: Apathy, ... Read More

An inspriring speech, seperated by touching photographs. For most, not something you would look at more than once or twice, but a good coffee book table or converation starter if your friends are they type that can talk about world poverty around a coffee table...

 : The End of Poverty: Economic Possibilities for Our Time
If you are like me, you may often worry about the poor and the underprivileged across the world. You may wonder what it would take to help them achieve sustainable livelihoods which is the first step to ending poverty for them. You may even be wondering what role you could play in ending poverty in this world. Well, look no further because here is the book that is a must-read for anyone concerned about global poverty and how to overcome it - "The End of Poverty" by Dr. Jeffery Sachs. Dr. Sachs, one of the leading economists of our times makes this book comprehensible for everyone even if you are not an economist.

The book mainly talks about overcoming extreme poverty. Dr. Sachs defines a person ... Read More

The Great, Great, Great Chicken War This is a children's book that all ages can enjoy. The young author - David de la Garza - and his parents have created a book that has gorgeous art with a story that all ages can enjoy. Not only can they enjoy the story-poem for its rhythm and sounds, but also for the story it tells. I bought the book for a five-year-old and discovered that his two-year-old brother was fascinated by the creatures and colors - the art work. And after hearing it read aloud, the five-year-old started talking about the story - about war - and the oldest of the three children, a ten-year-old joined in the conversation and for perhaps the first time, didn't talk down to his younger brother. While the book is not religious, a friend of mine who teaches Sunday School plans to use the book for a class discussion ... Read More
