Doris Day: Her own story
Doris Day, A.E. Hotchner

William Morrow and Company, Inc., 1975

A great read about a great lady - Doris Day
This book is a entertaining read, as well as inspirational. Doris Day has to be one of the most admired women on this planet. She has seemed to never get sucked into the vapid world of "stardom", and has seemed to keep an eye on what is really important. Her work ...
  
  











  



  
The Blooding
Joseph Wambaugh

William Morrow & Company, 1989

Docudrama.
This is a docudrama rather than a novel. It's a dramatization of the sleuthing behind the arrest of a serial killer in England, and it's chief point of interest is the first use of DNA evidence to solve a crime. Wambaugh does this sort of thing better than Truman ...

The Rise and Fall of the House of Barneys: A Family Tale of Chutzpah, Glory, and Greed
Joshua Levine

William Morrow & Company, 1999

A Cautionary Tale for Expansionist Managements
It seems everyone talks to Levine because as Barney Pressman once told Fred, "The Pressmans have no friends." What emerges is not only a morality play but also a case study on how not to raise your children and how not to expand your business. Hubris is a horrible ...
  
  











  



  
The One Minute Manager Meets the Monkey
Kenneth H. Blanchard, William Oncken, ...

William Morrow & Company, 1991

"It's tough to work for a nervous boss; especially if you are the one who's making your boss nervous."
Solving problems (or as Blanchard refers to them... monkeys) is something everyone must get better at throughout life. Regardless if you are in the field of business, medical, or even in parenting, solving problems is a big part of being successful every day. That's ...
  
  











  



  
The Walk West: A Walk Across America 2
Peter Jenkins, Barbara Jenkins

William Morrow & Company, 1981

Great adventure
I read 'A Walk Across America' and 'The Walk West' a number of years ago. Both proved to be exciting. I liked 'The Walk West' best since it covered areas I have visited. I began staying at Vickers Ranch at Lake City Colorado due to this book. I took my book with me ...
  
  











  



  
Phantoms in the Brain: Probing the Mysteries of the Human Mind
V. S. Ramachandran, Sandra Blakeslee

William Morrow and Company, Inc., 1998

Absolutely Fantastic Book
While this book may not be for everyone, I believe that most people will have a hard time putting it down. Ramachandran's ability to explain absurdly complicated concepts with simple language and simple methods is just one of the facets of his genius. After readking ...
  
  











  



  
Fluke: Or, I Know Why the Winged Whale Sings
Christopher Moore

William Morrow & Company, 2007

Only Moore is so Imaginative, thought-provoking, and hilarious
Nate Quinn, a nerdy, quiet behavior-biologist is investigating the humpback's song with his photographer and best friend Clay Demodocus, a young wannabe Rastafarian Kona, and the hot (though 1920s slang-spewing) assistant Amy Earhart. Suddenly, he sees a message on the ...

Don't Leave Home (or the Dock) Without It!

Wobble the Witch Cat
Mary Calhoun

William Morrow & Company, 1958

This is so cute
This is one of my son's favorite books! A nice, kind, grandma witch that rides a vacuum with her 'fraidy cat.

Somebody Ought to be stoppd

Boot: An L.A.P.D. Officer's Rookie Year
William C. Dunn

William Morrow & Company, 1996

The best!
This book is hands down the best book relating to firsthand police work I've read. Truly does give you a good sense of what it might be like to work in L.A. as a cop.
  
  











  



  
Caesar's Women
Colleen McCullough

William Morrow & Company, 1996

The Really Difficult Made Fun and Clear
In graduate school the Roman Political System was a torturous twisting and turning subject that made the US government seem childishly simple. Yet McCullough's book not only makes the way the Roman government worked clear but makes learning about it a thoroughly ...
  
  











  



  
A Conflict of Visions: Ideological Origins of Political Struggles
Thomas Sowell

William Morrow & Company, 1987

Finding Forrester.......
I love Thomas Sowell for his clear mindset and philosohy. I read almost nothing else but philosophy, and Sowell is at the top of my list for clarity, understanding and delivery. He does not receive, in my opinion, the recognition for his genius he is due. A must ...
