Book Description
Jack Reacher. Hero. Loner. Soldier. Soldier’s son. An elite military cop, he was one of the army’s brightest stars. But in every cop’s life there is a turning point. One case. One messy, tangled case that can shatter a career. Turn a lawman into a renegade. And make him question words like honor, valor, and duty. For Jack Reacher, this is that case.
New Year’s Day, 1990. The Berlin Wall is coming down. The world is changing. And in a North Carolina “hot-sheets” motel, a two-star general is found dead. His briefcase is missing. Nobody knows what was in it. Within minutes Jack Reacher has his orders: Control the situation. But this situation can’t be controlled. Within hours the general’s wife is murdered hundreds of miles away. Then the dominoes really start to fall.
Two Special Forces soldiers—the toughest of the tough—are taken down, one at a time. Top military commanders are moved from place to place in a bizarre game of chess. And somewhere inside the vast worldwide fortress that is the U.S. Army, Jack Reacher—an ordinarily untouchable investigator for the 110th Special Unit—is being set up as a fall guy with the worst enemies a man can have.
But Reacher won’t quit. He’s fighting a new kind of war. And he’s taking a young female lieutenant with him on a deadly hunt that leads them from the ragged edges of a rural army post to the winding streets of Paris to a confrontation with an enemy he didn’t know he had. With his French-born mother dying—and divulging to her son one last, stunning secret—Reacher is forced to question everything he once believed…about his family, his career, his loyalties—and himself. Because this soldier’s son is on his way into the darkness, where he finds a tangled drama of desperate desires and violent death—and a conspiracy more chilling, ingenious, and treacherous than anyone could have guessed.

My Favorite Reacher.......2007-08-09
I have read six of the Reacher novels. So far this is by far my favorite. In my opinion many of the novels seem to get bogged down in the middle. This one however avoided that fate and kept the action and interest alive.
What really makes this novel the best one so far? We finally get a good look at the back story of Jack Reacher. At the end of this novel it feels like Child has finally given us a reason, besides his heroic archetype, to care about Reacher. We finally start to see why Reacher became the man he did. His development is more than passing phrases and secondary accounts.
I would recommend this as your introduction to Reacher. Start with this book and then read the rest in order.
Lee Child is Spot on in this Book.......2007-08-02
I have read 7 of the Reacher series books and I liked this one as one the best; they are all great, but this one was well thought out and the pacing was quick, the plot points were believable, the character of Reacher was developed more and he started to become a rounder character. There was good use of military proceedures without being obnoxious about the acronyms or the military jargon.
This prequel to the other Reacher novels gives a great background on who Jack Reacher is. I love when Child writes in the first person, and he has done that in a couple of other books, but it was especially good here as we get to sit next to Jack and listen to him as he narrates the story to us, creating a sense drama, and showing us Reacher as a human character.
For me the better parts of the book was the previously untold relationship Jack had with his mother and his brother. The scenes of when he is in Paris visiting his mother were heartfelt and poingnent.
A very well conceived book, if you only want to choose one, start here. You will be hooked on Jack Reacher.
The Enemy.......2007-07-25
In this book Jack Reacher is a still a Major in the Military. He's sent to look into the murder of a general. Things become more complicated when the General's wife dies. Jack's boss leaves suddenly and the new guy, a former pencil pusher tells him to stop his investigation. Another gruesome murder takes place and it's beginning to look like a conspiracy of major proportions is going on. Jack disobeys orders and soon finds himself the one who's in trouble. This is another great read from Lee Child.
A must read for Thriller fans........2007-07-22
I'm a little late on my review but I just had to get a plug in for Lee Child. In my opinion Lee Child is an unsung mystery/thriller writer. His novel "The Enemy" is prequel to the rest of the Jack Reacher's series going back to his army days in the early 1990's.
What follows is a terrific military police procedural that finds Reacher pursuing a case that involves a cover-up in the USA and Europe. This exciting story could only be told by the talents of Lee Child. A must read for all thriller fans.
I'll Keep Reaching for Child's Books.......2007-07-01
Lee Child is hands down the best thriller writer out there right now. This is my fourth Lee Child book, and I become more sold on his writing with each one. While I agree somewhat with other reviewers' comments that the book drags a bit more than his others, I still enjoyed every bit of it. I thought actually that the police procedural work was reminiscent of Lawrence Sanders' "Deadly Sins" Series. Furthermore, it was nice to see Jack Reacher's older brother, Joe, who first made a brief appearance in Child's first and stunning effort, "The Killing Floor." It was also good to see Reacher's military background illuminated.
Child's skill at characterization is first-rate, as we get to know this flawed but fascinating hero better with each book. Not only does Reacher come to life in each new book, but Child creates some truly heinous villains who he delights in serving their comeuppance. Furthermore, this author's pacing, suspense, and knack for witty, winning dialogue all seal the deal for me. (I am wondering where Hollywood has been on all of this...)
Although I have not read them in order, I will be soon seeking out the Reacher novels I've missed for more vicarious thrills. Kep 'em coming, Mr. Child!
Book Description
A never-before-written exposé on catching child predators, from the creator of the powerful NBC Dateline series
Over 40,000,000 Americans have seen Dateline NBC's ongoing “To Catch a Predator” series, with an average of 11 million viewers per episode. So far, the Dateline series has led to the arrest of 183 men and shown that child predators can be anyone—even those most trusted in the community—including rabbis, doctors, and teachers.
In his book To Catch a Predator, Chris Hansen, the creator and on-air correspondent for Dateline's most successful series, looks deeper into the world of child predators. The book expands beyond the Dateline series to include commentary from psychological and criminal experts about the origins and methods of child predators, and includes substantive advice for both parents and children on how to protect kids on the Internet. Hansen also looks at the current methods for treating child predators and interviews several of the men seen on the Dateline show to follow up on their lives since being arrested. To Catch a Predator presents a strong analysis of what some feel is a child predator epidemic and a startling look at the shortcomings of our systems and society.
Customer Reviews:
informative and interesting .......2007-10-19
Based on the popular "To Catch a Predator" series, Chris Hanson wrote this book. This is an informative book that all parents should read. About 30% of it is about the TV program and the rest is written like a guidebook. Chris Hanson includes other stories from families and experts, as well. I have watched "To Catch a Predator" from the beginning and really enjoy it. It's great to watch these weasels (my apologies to all weasels) get arrested and I know that this show is doing a lot of good. There is also a spin-off of sorts that started on MSNBC recently called "Predator Raw" which includes extra clips from passed shows. Some have even whispered that because of Chris Hanson's immense popularity on "Dateline" he was partly behind Stone Phillips getting the axe. I don't know if that's true or not; but I'm always happy to see a man with a multi-million-dollar contract who does absolutely nothing get his walking papers (good going, GE!) My only complaint about Chris Hanson is that he has done some "To Catch a Predator" parodies which are rather inappropriate and tasteless. In my opinion, he is in no position to bite the hand the feeds him because he should know more than anyone how serious this is.
TO CATCH A PREDATOR.......2007-08-25
I think every person that has a child in their home should read this book. I also think children over 14 years of age should read this book.
Get the Book!!!!!!!!.......2007-08-04
If you have the internet,if you have kids (THIS IS A MUST READ FOR PARENTS!), if you love kids, if you work around kids, if you hate the actions of pedophiles that become sexual predators and feel they should be incarated unitl Jesus comes back, or you think hey should get treatment and that is the best solution, get the freakin book!
It covers all of these issues and all of the operations and catching these sexual predatory dirtbags. ( Ofcourse I'm a "locker upper!")It is a great read, Chris Hansen is well spoken on all issues, and just does a great job with this one! Its full of information and sometimes will make you say "What" and sometimes "HMMMMM." It is probably the best beginners book for reading on the issue of online predators. There are more explicit and problably more scientific ones but this should be on every internet crimes against children bookshelf. GET THE BOOK!!!
Every parents should read this book!.......2007-06-05
This book is written by the host of the popular NBC Dateline series, To Catch a Predator. If you are a parent, you should read this book.
Read this Book..........2007-06-03
if you have children and a computer.
More than just a rundown of the TO CATCH A PREDATOR Dateline NBC series (although it does do that), this book also contains heartbreaking stories of children who have been exploited -- and in some cases murdered -- by predators they met on the Internet.
Chris Hansen does a great job of illustrating the fact that the computer and the Internet, as a whole, are useful tools that even younger children can take advantage of. But his tips and hints for protecting your children from online predators are something that EVERY parent needs to read -- and then share with their kids.
While I tried to avoid scaring my two children (ages 10 and 6), I have sat them down and discussed the dangers that can be found on the Internet. Just as predators in real life don't always look like what they are, I think my kids now understand that people they could meet online aren't necessarily who they claim to be, either.
I highly recommend all parents, especially those of teens and pre-teens, who have a computer pick up a copy of TO CATCH A PREDATOR. You'll be amazed, frightened, and instilled with a sense of urgency when it comes to the protection of your kids.
Customer Reviews:
Everything in moderation..........2007-09-26
I borrowed this book from a friend and really thought it helped me understand where my 3-year-old daughter was coming from. I agree with reviewers who said that it was more of a developmental awareness type of book, rather than a how-to-deal-with-your-kid book. If you want how-to, I recommend How to Talk So Kids Will Listen & Listen So Kids Will Talk by Adele Faber. Anyway, I read over some of the negative reviews and felt that though I agree that the book was outdated, I think these people were excessively harsh. The authors do suggest that someone besides mom might have an easier time dealing with a 3 1/2 year old... but I read that as "help should be welcome at this age". They didn't ever suggest outright that you put your kid in all-day daycare and forget them. They suggest picking your battles (things that really mean a lot - like bathing, clothes, hairbrushing) and don't sweat the small stuff - like going back to close a door or making their bed just-so. I got from this book that the defiant age passes, and if you can get help during the tough times do it for your own sanity. My personal update - enlist dad to help. It's true that they treat dads as family police who just enforce rules. Realize that the book is outdated somewhat, but still has pearls of wisdom that do help understand what's happening with your child.
It's a manual for three year olds.......2007-08-21
I find book very reassuring, especially during difficult times. I did the developmental test inside and I was comforted. It also has precise schedules when it's best to leave your child with a trusted caregiver and when to pay closer attention. The cycles of moods is just a life-saver. I would recommend it to first time mothers.
Good for the worrisome parent.......2007-06-27
I have a VERY active 3-year-old little girl. I've always been troubled by making sure she's operating within the normal parameters of her age. And this book certainly helped put my mind at ease. As many reviewers have said, this is not a book for people seeking parenting "advise" per se, but is excellent at outlining the typical range of behaviors for the age. As must have for the nervous parent
Hopelessly Out of Date and Out of Touch.......2007-06-14
I was very disappointed in this book after hearing so many good things about the series. It is hopelessly out of date to the point that it offended me after only 10 pages. The book assumes that the father is this distant person with little to no involvement in parenting. I just don't think that's true any more for many families. To me this attitude just reinforces stereotypes that only mothers can be good parents. Bleh!
Your 3 year old: Friend or Enemy.......2007-05-19
I too am shocked that there are people who don't like this book. Yes, some of the advice is outdated, but the general behavioral info is spot on. I've looked for more updated information on behavior and advice & have found none to compare with providing concise insight into the WHY of behavior. Just understanding why my child was acting a certain way put a whole new spin on how I deal with issues. The days that it seems my child turned into a stranger, I could say "ah ha!" this book told me this may happen. I do love, love, love this book & have recommended it over and over.
Book Description
Friends broaden our children’s horizons, share their joys and secrets, and accompany them on their journeys into ever wider worlds. But friends can also gossip and betray, tease and exclude. Children can cause untold suffering, not only for their peers but for parents as well. In this wise and insightful book, psychologist Michael Thompson, Ph.D., and children’s book author Catherine O’Neill Grace, illuminate the crucial and often hidden role that friendship plays in the lives of children from birth through adolescence.
Drawing on fascinating new research as well as their own extensive experience in schools, Thompson and Grace demonstrate that children’s friendships begin early–in infancy–and run exceptionally deep in intensity and loyalty. As children grow, their friendships become more complex and layered but also more emotionally fraught, marked by both extraordinary intimacy and bewildering cruelty. As parents, we watch, and often live through vicariously, the tumult that our children experience as they encounter the “cool” crowd, shifting alliances, bullies, and disloyal best friends.
Best Friends, Worst Enemies brings to life the drama of childhood relationships, guiding parents to a deeper understanding of the motives and meanings of social behavior. Here you will find penetrating discussions of the difference between friendship and popularity, how boys and girls deal in unique ways with intimacy and commitment, whether all kids need a best friend, why cliques form and what you can do about them.
Filled with anecdotes that ring amazingly true to life, Best Friends, Worst Enemies probes the magic and the heartbreak that all children experience with their friends. Parents, teachers, counselors–indeed anyone who cares about children–will find this an eye-opening and wonderfully affirming book.

Worst Enemies/ Best Friends Beacon Street Girls.......2004-09-15
Hi,My name is Taylor. I read Beacon Street Girls. It was a really great book. You never knew what to expect next. It was so interesting I could hardly put it down. It is a good book for any age girl. I felt like I was one of the Beacon Street Girls. I could see myself there. It is a perfect book for every girl. It has all the personalities of every girl, so anyone can relate to it. The book kept me guessing throughout the entire story. Even when I put it down I kept wondering what was going to happen next. I would highly recommend this book to any girl of any age. I know you will enjoy this and be glad you read it. I hope you will be as excited as I to read the next book and tell your friends.
Not as interesting as I'd hoped.......2002-09-17
I guess I was expecting something more in-depth and less instructional. I am sure this is a fine book for a parent who isn't clued into how some kids are popular and some kids have no friends at all, but I was looking for a more psychological perspective.
I did find the short sections about infants and toddlers very interesting. I think there should have been less emphasis on popularity and what it means to children. The section about people acting a certain way because of a group mentality rather than personal morals captured my attention.
This book is important........2002-05-03
Alice Miller (author of The Drama of the Gifted Child and Breaking Down the Walls of Silence) has long emphasized that if we are serious about solving society's problems, we must focus on how we treat children --- as individual families and as a cultural. This book is an excellent contribution toward that end.
From thought-provoking observations to practical suggestions about solutions, Best Friends, Worst Enemies is an effective education about social problems that begin in childhood, but do not end in childhood. One point the authors make that interests me greatly is that when one child is being bullied by others, the majority of children witnessing the abuse will either do nothing to intervene or they will join in with the bullying. If you think that is not a reflection of the society in which we live, think again.
As a psychotherapist and author (Embracing Fear, HarperSanFrancisco) who emphasizes personal responsibility and facing fears head on, I hope that more than just parents and educators will read this book. I think there is something here for us all to think about --- no, to do something about.
Children's social lives.......2002-03-13
Outatanding book! It has valuable information for adults concerning what our kids social lives are like and how to help them when there is a problem. Children can be so cruel. The book sheds light on a world we as adults don't really understand. This book is well written and easy to read. I highly recommend it!
Shows how parents can understand and help children socially.......2002-02-19
After watching a feature documentary on the power of social relationships to shape a child's life into adulthood, I was already interested in learning more. This book filled the bill, especially the sections which revealed how children use power (and even bullying) to both include some children and exclude others. I think most of us remember the playground bullies but what this book did was show how parents can help to change bullying behavior, give their children skills to handle bullies and lessen the damaging effects of their behavior.
This book focuses on far more than bullies and those who purchase it will find it filled with rich insights into the social world of children and how they view their friendships and connections with other children.

Creative, Moving and Memorable.......2000-01-04
This book belongs on the same shelf as Art Spiegelman's Pulitzer Prize-winning "Maus: A Survivor's Tale" and "Schindler's List." Duba really gets inside her characters -- victims, perpetrators and those in-between. Her poems will leave lasting impressions and have readers returning to the pages many times.
Universally relevant.......1999-06-02
This beautifully written gem should be required reading for anyone who feels they understand the Holocaust. Ursula Duba is brutally honest in her portrayal of "civilized" behavior in difficult circumstances. This book will take your conscience on a difficult trip by showing us that we are all responsible for protesting injustices in the world around us.
Extraordinarily honest, courageous and sensitive!.......1997-06-10
In reading Duba's book, my first inclination was to be suspect of this German gentile who had the audacity to portray the Jewish experience of the Holocaust, but as I read the sequence of story poems that, like blocks, built a picture of the complex, multi-layered experience of all the participants, I began to soften and ultimately came over to join her in viewing the experience from her vantage point. Duba is brutally honest with herself, requiring me too, to examine my prejudices and stererotypes. Her courage to face herself and to face up to others gave me the encouragement to examine my experience, to face down some of my haunting demons and the manadate to speak out. - Second generation Holocaust survivo
Duba's impact is immediate and deep........1997-06-04
TALES FROM A CHILD OF THE ENEMY by Ursula Duba compels us to realize that the past is a state of mind. She carries us back into her childhood in post-war Germany, and then quietly returns us to the present. There, through our own time, Duba again carries us back, this time further and deeper and into the psyches of those who were witness to the inhumanity of the Third Reich. We realize that the events of another time and another place envelop and profoundly affect the way our present is seen and tolerated by certain individuals, people whom we might very easily know. We come to realize that their struggle, their understanding, and their insights can have profound influence on the world around us. That this is true, especially for those of us who presumed that our realtionship to the events of WWII and the Holocaust were non-existent or at least, very distant, is stunning. We are inescapably drawn into Duba's mind and heart by the deceptively conversational tone of her poems, by her easy description of events and issues which so quickly become as familiar to us as the events in our own lives. The lives of others and the "then" which has impacted so strongly upon them today, becomes a part of our own lives, our own now

Book Description
Stories about siblings abound in literature, drama, comedy, biography, and history. We rarely talk about our own siblings without emotion, whether with love and gratitude, or exasperation, bitterness, anger and hate. Nevertheless, the subject of what it is to be and to have a sibling is one that has been ignored by psychiatrists, psychologists and therapists.
In
My Dearest Enemy, My Dangerous Friend, Dorothy Rowe presents a radically new way of thinking about siblings that unites the many apparently contradictory aspects of these complex relationships. This helps us to recognise the various experiences involved in sibling relationships as a result of the fundamental drive for survival and validation, enabling us to reach a deeper understanding of our siblings and ourselves.
If you have a sibling, or you are bringing up siblings, or, as an only child, you want to know what you're missing, this is the book for you.
Book Description
Why should books drive the academic hierarchy? This controversial question posed by Lindsay Waters ignited fierce debate in the academy and its presses, as he warned that the "publish or perish" dictum was breaking down the academic system in the United States. Waters hones his argument in this pamphlet with a new set of questions that challenge the previously unassailable link between publishing and tenure.
As one of the most important and innovative editors in the humanities and social sciences, Waters has long witnessed the self-destruction occurring in the academic world because of the pressure to publish. Drawing upon his years of experience, he reveals how this principle is destroying the quality of educational institutions and the ideals of higher learning. It is time for scholars to rise up, Waters argues, and reclaim the governance of their institutions.

Aesthetic-political provocation of a US 'world gone wrong,'.......2004-04-23
Enemies of Promise offers a prodding and lucid intervention into the glut and glamor of the over-production system and managerial model of corporate values that has taken hold in US academia and threatens to ruin creativity and block the future. As a series of polemics and reflective musings, the extended "essay" holds up very well and should have a broad and lucid impact, as parts of it already have had on the MLA and in UP circles. I liked the sustained and situated use made of Kantian 'judgment,' and the appeal to the ethical and aesthetic individual make-up of that judgment via Kierkegaard, Augustine, and Emerson. The way Enemies of Promise invokes Fish and Rorty, these anti-theory forces do look like 'covering cherubs' blocking vision and the 'new spirit' future from coming in, in the Blakean poetic and political sense. The work stays timely, and offers much good council to the young and to the over-professionalized and administered unto death, which here in the UC system say I feel strong doses of as "becoming production." Plus, the work offers some ways and tactics of value to move forward. In short, this is a real and bracing work of moral courage and aesthetic-political provocation that holds up very well as an intervention and over-view of a 'world gone wrong.'

Book Description
Jack Reacher. Hero. Loner. Soldier. Soldier's son. An elite military cop, he was one of the army's brightest stars. But in every cop's life there is a turning point. One case. One messy, tangled case that can shatter a career. Turn a lawman into a renegade. And make him question words like honor, valor, and duty. For Jack Reacher, this is that case...
New Year's Day, 1990. The Berlin Wall is coming down. The world is changing. And in a North Carolina “hot-sheets” motel, a two-star general is found dead. His briefcase is missing. Nobody knows what was in it. Within minutes Jack Reacher has his orders: Control the situation. But this situation can't be controlled. Within hours the general's wife is murdered hundreds of miles away. Then the dominoes really start to fall...
Two Special Forces soldiers - the toughest of the tough - are taken down, one at a time. Top military commanders are moved from place to place in a bizarre game of chess. And somewhere inside the vast worldwide fortress that is the U.S. Army, Jack Reacher - an ordinarily untouchable investigator for the 110th Special Unit - is being set up as a fall guy with the worst enemies a man can have.
But Reacher won't quit. He's fighting a new kind of war. And he's taking a young female lieutenant with him on a deadly hunt that leads them from the ragged edges of a rural army post to the winding streets of Paris to a confrontation with an enemy he didn't know he had. With his French-born mother dying - and divulging to her son one last, stunning secret - Reacher is forced to question everything he once believed...about his family, his career, his loyalties - and himself. Because this soldier's son is on his way into the darkness, where he finds a tangled drama of desperate desires and violent death - and a conspiracy more chilling, ingenious, and treacherous than anyone could have guessed.
