| The book is well-documented and gives complete and clear explanations of diseases, causes, and possible solutions - ultimately suggesting which product is a natural way to releive symptoms and improve health. That's fine, except they don't do enough to alert you that fixing one thing may be bad for another. While you can talk live to an "advisor" anytime, they are not medical doctors and may not be aware of negative consequences of an item. For example, if you have burning with urination, the book and advisors may lead you to take the potent "CRANMAX" which may be excellent for urinary tract infection. But if the burning is from prostrate problems, a heavy dose of cranberry juice (quite acidic) is not a good idea.
<br />They should do more to point such contradictions.
As the largest block of Americans approaches the ranks of senior status, we face an economy that is incapable of taking care of us we become feeble incompetent old people, especially when there will be more people over the age of 50 in the USA than under the age of 50 by the year 2025!! We owe it to ourselves and our children to be strong, healthy, vital seniors capable of thinking for ourselves, strong enough to carry our own groceries, healthy enough to function independently and if we need to, continue to work well past 65 to support ourselves. The only way to do this is with the Prevention of Disease, not by treating the symptoms of degenerative diseases after they occur. This comprehensive text is extremely valuable for anyone interested in saving their own future, from the medical person to the average consumer of nutritional products.
As a registered nurse and also a diabetic, I found the Fourth Edition to <br>contain an impressive amount of helpful information. I not only read the <br>chapter on Diabetes, but I also read several other chapters that are related <br>to health conditions that both my husband and I experience. I was very <br>impressed by the fact that the information was presented in a professional <br>manner and was substantiated by numerous recent scientific studies to refer <br>to for more specific information about the methods used and the findings <br>described. I plan to implement some of the information given in the Diabetes <br>chapter and to discuss other issues that might apply to my condition with my <br>doctor during my next visit. I have no reservations about encouraging <br>everyone to read the information in this book. |

| This is not a large book on how to ovecome your anxiety issues, but it gets right to the point. I read it in one day and used the principles it suggested and I actually overcame a specific phobia in one afternoon. I had, for no known reason, developed an anxiety reaction to driving on one particular highway in my city. It was a busy, 5 lane route with a speed limit of 70 mph. with an average speed of 80 mph for most drivers. Every time I used that highway, I experienced an anxiety reaction that could be classified as a panic attack. It was intolerable. I suffered for weeks until I got this book and read it the first day. I used the coping methods suggested and it worked for me. I now drive that route at least once a week and on the rare occasion that I get anxious, I tell myself that "I feel nothing, this is uncomfortable, but many things in my life are uncomfortable and I can handle this" and I get where I have to go without incident. Read this book and use it, it can be very helpful, if not a cure! Who knew something as simple as wearing a rubber band on my left wrist and tweaking it whenever anxiety became an issue could actually revise a panic situation. It works! |

| Every reader buys a book with different expectations and therefore I respect the points made by several other reviewers. For me however, this is one of the best books I've come across in the last decade. I've written two books myself and so I can be reasonably critical. At the same time, everyone has their unique preferences. For mine, this book is tremendous. The author clearly poured his heart into it-- it is one of the most comprehensive books on any subject I've come across. Several things make this book unique. First, the author provides his real perspectives and true opinions on network processors, vendors, approaches, what works, and what doesn't. His years of experience are reflected in the book. He also comments on the industry. He does these things without any pretense of political correctness-- he says it like he sees it. You'll also find him providing his views on deeper technical subjects. He's also perfectly happy to provide those views without giving you a treatise on everyone of the topics he comments on. I like that. He clearly set his sights on giving you as much information as he could in one book. Others may prefer more of a straight textbook like buildup of the material with no change from that theme and coverage only of topics that are built-up from scratch. There is however a large amount of buildup in the book, I just didn't buy it strictly for that. The book covers so much ground that in the 400+ pages the publisher had to reduce the font to keep the book size down. The book not only comments on particular example vendor implementations but also looks at architectural topics. He for example talks about the issues associated with software development environments and the economic tradeoffs an NPU vendor makes in investing in sample code versus a true software development environment. He covers deeper topics such as classification and also includes a chapter on security processors.
I am a embeded linux programmer who want to make a chassis that processing ethernet packets. At that point of view, the contents is insufficient and disorder of descriptions. Hard to understand.
Knowing traditional CPU architectures and their limitations and being confronted with the need to understand how one can tackle numerous network communication protocols in real time under gigabits per seconds data rates, I picked up this book as the only one (to my knowledge) available, which did not seem devoted to esoteric & narrow research of issues. It seemed like a book, which would explain to me the whole landscape of what is needed to make fast equipment work, in other words the big picture. I was completely and positively astounded at the sheer breadth and depth of information that this book conveys. Maybe a better title should be "network processing chips" as it discusses much more than network processors and rigthfully so. The book covers all the necessary components one needs to put together next to a network processor as a big jigsaw puzzle in order to build a powerful working system, e.g. things like switch fabrics, traffic managers, content addressable memory, security coprocessors, etc. The style is flowing and engaging and the structure is very modular so one can go back and forth delving into one's areas of interest. The book can be read either from cover to cover or as a reference. Its binding makes the book even more of a pleasure to use. One must of course be able to understand some basics in order to be able to grasp the content as it may not be "bedtime" reading for some readers; it is fair however to say that after reading it one should have an infinitely better appreciation of how fast routers, wireless switches, etc. have to be logically structured and designed in order to be able to handle all of the quality-of-service-sensitive multimedia traffic they are more and more seeing. A couple of the many companies whose innovative platforms are discussed, have been either acquired or gone out of business for lack of funds during the last couple of years, something not surprising as the market for network processing chips is growing while still getting consolidated. The technology fundamentals however are crystal clear and unalterable. The overall subject is truly vast and each chapter could very well be a book by itself. Nevertheless in my opinion, the author did an excellent job in capturing the overall landscape and in laying out the fundamentals in a fresh way that not only is not intimidating but also makes sense especially for a newcomer. From here one can expand into any direction one wants while being fluent with the terms used in this field. If you want to understand this new area of advanced networking hardware and architecture internals and maybe catch your networking vendor's salesforce a bit off guard, you have simply got to buy this book. |

| The Protocols of the Elders of Zion is still worth reading about since it one of those books that it helped start a social movement of increased intolerance and violence towards Jews in Nazi Germany. It is still taken seriously in the present-day middle east. <p>Author Stephen Bronner's most interesting point is that the Protocols was written in reaction against modernity and its components of a republican state, rule of law, democratic liberalism, universal suffrage, universal equal rights, and separation of church and state. The reactionary forces of the church and aristocracy were against the liberal forces of Jews, freemasons, and the middle class mainly because they wanted to hold on to their arbitrary power over their subjects.<p>Another observation is that Bronner shows why many Jews support cosmopolitanism and separation of church and state so much; those two things the Protocols opposed with nationalism and the church. Such ideas give the Jews more freedom and equality than they would have under a Christian government or a nation that defines its true citizenry on the basis of race. Nationalism often has a racial component to it as opposed to a cosmopolitanism that pretends that race does not matter.<p>In the last chapter, Bronner analyzes contemporary anti-semitism and racial nationalism. He advocates that more conservative Jews should even give up their cultural and genetic heritage to the inevitable march of progress, modernity, and cosmopolitanism. Those who resist multiculturalism will be the inevitable losers. To be a racial nationalist is to join forces with the likes that support the values of anti-semites. He poses the question that once antisemitism is removed from society, the Jews themselves may vanish because they will no longer be the persecuted 'others'. But of course, one can think that there are seeds of destruction in excessive cosmopolitanism also.<p>The Protocols are reprinted in the book. It is clumsily written propaganda, but it came along at the right time and it plays upon fears that people still have today: autocratic world government, destruction of Christianity, planned economic depressions, indoctrination of children in schools of values parents are against, control of the news media that doesn't tell the truth, mindless entertainment to destract citizens from their vanishing freedoms and wealth, and planned spread of diseases for population control. Bronner gives the history of the creation and appearance of the Protocols in Russia in 1905 when the reactionary and anti-semitic monarchy enthusiastically supported its discimination.
This is a good book because first it is short and easy to read, it discusses a notorious fabrication or conspiracy theory, and it shows just how confused the Jewish position is with regards to the "other" or antisemitism. The author seems to meander between numerous concepts and explanations of antisemitism, but never really embraces a coherent theme. Oddly, this is very similar to "The Protocols" that he attacks.<p>We have of course many venues of indoctrination, and "The Protocols" is just one of many. Why anyone would write a book about such a pamphlet that is an obvious forgery over 100 years old, and treat it like a present day threat is a real mystery. In addition, the author seems to be trying to convince Jews to somehow change their behavior, while he excoriates all Gentiles for their insane obsession with antisemitism. He tends to vacillate between "there is no more antisemitism" and "Jews had better give up their world view of domination or people will again become anti-Semitic." He in many ways confirms that Jewishness, unlike other religions, is really a supremacist position that embraces dominance over the "other." He openly discusses the Jewish obsession with racial purity and what will be required to stop intermarriage.<p>What is lacking in this and books like it, is a real analysis of what we now know about group evolutionary strategies. Kevin MacDonald's trilogy on Jew-Gentile competition, based on group evolutionary strategies, makes this book a transparent work of mere propaganda. Anyone familiar with the neo-Darwinist position on group behavior will recognize what this book is all about trying to make the world safe for Judaism (that is the race, not the religion).<p>The best book to read to understand this book is MacDonald's "The Culture of Critique: An Evolutionary Analysis of Jewish Involvement in Twentieth-Century Intellectual and Political Movements." As an academically reviewed book, and part of the "Human Evolution, Behavior, and Intelligence" series of books edited by Seymour W. Itzkoff, it explains why and for what purpose this book was written. |
