| 151.The Left-Handed Book by: James T. deKay January 25, 1988 |

Average Rating:  >>More Details |
 |
|
| This book doesn't take itself seriously, and it has a lot of whimsy, but it is also packed with little-known facts about left-handedness that will save you from feeling like a klutz or an idiot. Lots of things you don't do well have nothing to do with your dexterity (itself a right-handed word), but rather with the right-hand only design of many products, even gum wrappers! This is a light-hearted, but ultimately very useful and informative book that will help you as a left-handed person to see your ... Read More: |

| For those who are new to the Eyewitness format, it consists of thematically arranged two-page spreads of brilliant photographs on a white background. There is an intro paragraph in the upper left-hand corner, but most of the text is in the captions that go with the photographs. Generally, the biological sciences titles are the strongest in this series, since other topics often need a more organized progression of topics. You'll get a lot of information out of these books, but you won't get a systematic ... Read More: |

| Having borrowed this book from our public library I wanted a copy of my own to use as a resource for children's programming at our local historical society. It gives so much information and the illustrations are wonderful. |

| This is a book about Mythology and shows lots of visuals of ancient art showing how they depicted their mythology. It's organised by types of mythology, creation myths, fertility myths, afterlife myths, not by cultures. It's a broad introduction to the topic, and I know kids will find the pictures interesting and they will want to learn more about the specifics, which will require other books, but for a child first begining to understand mythology, or even the roots of NeoPaganism, this and perhapse the DK eyewitness ...

| It's hard to be enthusiastic enough about a book like this. I like the subjects (Archeology, Ship Building, historical research, fascinating stories) and the presentation style, but most of all I like how the author makes connections and inspires you to find more information about things that you suddenly feel as if you never appreciated enough. His other books are similar - "City", "Cathedral" etc. You also get the benefit of considerate and imaginative views taken from vantage points that are often difficult if not ... Read More: |

| When I opened the mail I was shocked at how short this book was, 50 pages or so, particularly considering how expensive it was, about $20. I was very pleased with the pictures in the book and the presentation of the information and generally very happy with the book. I just thought the cost of the book versus the number of pages was insane. I felt ripped off. Maybe a rich person wouldn't feel ripped off. But I did. |

| What I love about this book:
1. Identifies the 8 kinds of intelligence discovered thus far, with a check list to help you identify "some of the ways you are smart." I like how he is continually making the point that you have all the smarts, and you might identify with one or two more than the others. I think this helps you not feel like you have a label. 2. Identifies the things you do everyday that show the way you are smart. 3. Gives ideas for enhancing and expanding the way you are smart. ... Read More: |
