As part of a total weight loss program, this book is a must!

Low-fat Gourmet cooking?.......2001-12-29

This book is fantastic. Everything tastes like gourmet cooking.
Some of the recipes are fairly simple while others are not. This book is great for people who love to cook and want low-fat alternatives that taste great. Fair warning though this isn't one of those quickie meal recipe books. It is the best cookbook I own, regardless of the low-fat. It gives tons of information on exotic as well as common ingredients. It is a great gourment recipe book as well as instructional cooking book. Not only does this book tell you how to cook everything (poultry, seafood, vegetables, desserts, etc.) it also includes a nice sampling of international recipes for added flair, Spinach/cheese enchiladas, Greek Moussaka, Squash stuffed with Mediterranean grains, to name just a few. You won't get bored.

Mouthwatering User Friendly Recipes.......2000-07-10

This is a perfect cookbook! Not only are the recipes mouthwateringly delicious, they are simple and easy to prepare. The ingredient lists are fairly short and readily available at the neighborhood market. Many of the dishes take under 20 minutes to prepare.

Beyond the recipes themselves, the book contains some great reference information. There's a terrific illustrated guide to peppers, a glossary of mexican spices, and helpful hints for general cooking are scattered throughout the book.

This is an amazing value! If you're interested in low fat / high flavor cooking snap this one up!

I have several low-fat mexican cookbooks and find myself using this one the most. Their recipes for corn bread, beans and soup are great.

I grew up watching my mom can everything possible from our huge garden and orchard every summer and fall, and my job was to sterilize the jars in a huge, speckled, blue and white enameled kettle. Just as I was about to "graduate" to fruit preparation and cooking tasks, my folks got divorced and my Mom stopped canning, went back to work, and I had my first commercially canned pickles, tomatoes, and fruits. The difference was a shock to an 11-year-old. Since then, I have yearned to know how to can my own locally available fruits and vegetables without all the salt, sugar, and preservatives. Paging through this book, walking myself through some of the recipes, I began dreaming once more of the wonderful things I got to eat from my Mom's cupboard as a child. I can do this, and with the help of this good book, so can you!

I Liked It!.......2004-12-05

I liked the book. The book is small and written in a larger than normal print. There are quite a few recipes that are easy to make and actually taste good. I have tried many of them myself. My copy is dated 1981. But the recipes are easy to read and following the directions is not a problem.

Outstanding.......2003-04-01

Silverman and Williams deliver again with this excellent cookbook that is devoid of recipes containing sugar, salt and fat. I don't much like the food I make from it, admittedly, but the recipes really are sound - especially the cheeseburger.

pretty disappointed.......2003-01-22

well, first of all, the title said "no fat" and well, almost all of the recipes here have fat in them, and the desserts have almost the same amount of fat as regular desserts! also, the recipes have no pictures, so it's a bit hard to follow. for some reason, and this may be the fault of my own, i expected more vegetarian recipes, and there really weren't that many (there was also a TON of dairy involved) but i guess other people ought to know that before they consider buying this. all in all i have to admit, i wouldn't recommend this book to my friends.

Little to recommend it.......2001-03-19

The size of this book should have clued me in. It's only about 9.25 x 6.25" and 171 pages of large type. Recipes are often quite separated from the norm, in my opinion, such as Athenian Market Stew. There are lots of recipes that require mint, of all things! There are no photos aside from the one one the cover. The index is its top feature, in that one can find a recipe a number of ways: by main ingredient, by type(like "Sauces"), etc.

To their credit, the authors do provide recommendations on how to stock a healthy pantry, read food labels, and even three ways to make a vegetable stock. However, these pages take space away from recipes, which is what folks buy cookbooks for. This book is a tiny one that can ill-afford the loss of recipe room!

Also, many of the recipes are quick and easy to prepare. The Braised Chicken with Sun-Dried Tomatoes is extremely good, and it's simple to fix.

For the money, I recommend you choose a more extensive cookbook. This is a handy little tome if you have ample room for storage, but if like me your space is limited, try to stretch it further with a larger, more worthwhile volume.

Book Description

It showcases some of the finest collections of Midwestern artifacts from across the country, many of them never before published. Artifacts from all prehistoric periods are covered: Paleo, Mississippian, Archaic, and Woodland. States featured are Kentucky, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Michigan, Wisconsin, Missouri, and Iowa. the 28 chapters in the book each cover an important artifact class with an introduction and representative photos. Descriptions, type, material, time period, size, location, and current collector value are given for every piece. Classes include boatstones, pendants, axes, plummets, bannerstones, birdstones, and fluted points, all artifacts of great interest to collectors. This book truly highlights the 'best of the best' in Indian artifacts. 2004 values. AUTHORBIO: Lar Hothem is a well-known expert in the field of Indian arrowheads and artifacts. His popular series, Indian Artifacts of the Midwest series has now added its fifth volume. His other titles include Indian Axes Related Stone Artifacts, Indian Pipes, Arrowheads Projectile Points, and Indian Trade Relics. REVIEW: This book is useful for those who know little about shakers as well as those who are diehard collectors. It is organized by company, shapes, and patterns. Large, full-color photographs are presented, with current collector values given for every shaker shown.

If this is the best that Mr. Hotham can find, he needs to look a little harder.

Book Description

Written for both novices and experienced repairers, Mechanical and Quartz Watch Repair includes: making an ideal work bench; the complete overhaul of ten different watch categories; watch lubrication; positional timekeeping; basic electricity and magnetism for electronic watches; and escapement theory.

Customer Reviews:

Lack of photos and diagrams.......2005-02-15

The reviewer Robert is correct: the book does not have "step by step" pictures of the procedures. So, it's very difficult to learn what is written without previous knownledge.

Not bad.......2003-01-21

The book does a decent job,but I was under the impression that it was kinda like a school book,in teaching watch theory and repair,the diagrams are excellant,some of the watch repairmans secrets are revealed,how to build a bench is explained,as is,the neccessary tools,the biggest complaint I (personnally) have is that I wished he had used a blow-up of the indivisual parts(with their names)and where they go,then I would have an easier time with the names of the parts and how they fit together.

Architecture residential drawing and design Workbook.......2003-02-25

The workbook is useless without the text book. It was unclear when ordering that I had ordered a workbook which had no information.

review Architecture: Residential Drawing and Design.......2000-04-27

EXCELLENT. I'd have rate it 7 stars if it was also available in metric dimensions.

Excellent Residential Architectural Design Overview.......2000-02-20

After I finished the book, I understood what residential architecture was truly about. A must read for a student of architecture. The book taught me the following: Architecture= The blending of Art, Engineering, and Construction with the responsibility of protecting the health, welfare and comfort of the public. With this premise, a residential architect designs a "work of architecture" by gracefully merging the Blend of ART/ENGINEERIN/CONSTRUCTION with public requirements to create a homogenious seamless solution that meets public need.

Complete book for beginers.......1999-10-21

Covers all the basics of architecture in a logical manner. Great detail on specifying building materials. My only complaint is the chapter on drafting tools is aged and obsolete.
