by: Howard Stern Amazon.com's Price: $7.50 Prices subject to change. Customer Reviews and Description Yes, this is the funniest book I have ever read. I was never really into the Howard Stern Show, only listening sometimes while my dad drives me to school (I'm 14), but this book changed me, and now I love listening to the show in the morning. It gets me ready for school I suppose. The book goes into the many parts of Howards life. It tells you how he his father used to treat him, and his mother as well. It really makes you wonder how he survived in a house like that. It tells of his college ... Read More  Read Reviews and Description

| 1125. Basic Home Studio Design | |
|
by: Paul White Amazon.com's Price: $7.95 Prices subject to change. Customer Reviews and Description People tend to criticize this book because it's too small and basic. Big deal! It's priced accordingly and the title clearly says "Basic". That aside, the information is as clear and concise and no-nonsense as you can get for this subject. I've read several more "complete" and technical books on the subject, and it was only until I read this book that things actually came into perspective. Believe me, there is no better book to get a clear overview on how to build a small, efficient studio. After that, and ... Read More Read Reviews and Description

Customer Reviews and Description Culture Jam, by Kalle Lasn, presents an interesting, eye-opening, fast-paced lesson on the America's current society. This book focuses on America's over-zealous consumerism; "America is no longer a country. It's a multitrillion-dollar brand". Lasn provoked my mind to do some serious examining of my own life.

by: John Hinchey Amazon.com's Price: $15.00 Prices subject to change. Customer Reviews and Description A fine addition to your Dylan library.

With the insight of an academic yet using fully accessible, virtually jargon free, prose Mr. Hinchey's takes us on a journey through Bob Dylan's 1960's work answering the question "How Does It Feel". A convincing thesis is laid out in the introduction and expounded in the following chapters. You don't have to ... Read More Read Reviews and Description

| 1130. Hal Wallis: Producer to the Stars | |
|
by: Bernard F. Dick List Price: $35.00 Amazon.com's Price: $23.80 You Save: $11.20 (32%) Prices subject to change. Customer Reviews and Description How Bernard Dick managed to write about the life and films of Hal Wallis in such an uninteresting way is certainly an accomplishment. Wallis was in charge of production at Warner Brothers for most of the 30's and into the 40's, but Dick chooses to ignore that period. This was the period when Wallis gave the studio its look and style. A movie like "Kings Row" gets no mention at all, but Dick plods on for a dozen pages about movies in which Wallis "could have" cast Lizabeth Scott, and plays he "should have" bought and ...
