Finally, the age of sophisters and calculators has fully arrived, and its herald is Tyler Cowen. He, economist and blogger, is here to tell us the purpose of life. It is to die with the most toys. Well, that, plus maximum freedom to do whatever we want with our toys while we are still alive. "Stubborn Attachments" is just about the sort of thing you’d expect from a left-libertarian philosopher, namely a clever and partially accurate construct that is internally coherent, but floats free of human reality and ignores any human value other than that found in the box labeled “Approved By John Stuart Mill.”Still, while I think much of this book is clueless, it’s brief, to the point, and actually fairly interesting. In particular, time is a critical concept in Cowen’s thought, and his thoughts related to this can be stimulating. And in this book Cowen does not show the childlike faith in technology that he earlier showed in "Average Is Over," although maybe that’s just because he subsumes technology within the general category of his main goal, wealth increase. The primary benefit to me of this book, however, was that it helped me advance my own thoughts on a related question—can a rich society stay a virtuous society?But before we get there, let’s examine what Cowen has to say. His primary point is to outline his path for maximizing our future value as a species. He is clear about what are the two goals that together constitute that value, such that its increase can be effectively measured. The first goal is material prosperity, meaning individual and collective wealth—not just goods and services, but also such things as leisure time and unspecified “environmental amenities” (by which he appears to mean an unspoiled natural world as some kind of special good, doubtless a form of virtue signaling). All these things together make up “wealth plus.” There is no need to get people to agree on the rank order of different goods; if wealth plus increases, necessarily on average more good things are available, allowing approved “plural values” to flourish. That is, if wealth increases, everyone can have the biggest piece of pie. All that matters is that wealth always increase, never faltering. Thus, the measure of whether any social process is desirable is whether it is “ongoing, self-sustaining, and [creates] rising value over time.”This leads into the second goal. As can be deduced from Cowen’s focus on “plural values,” which implies the primacy of Enlightenment values of emancipation and liberation from unchosen bonds, that goal is maximized individual autonomy. Cowen also sometimes characterizes it simply as “liberty” or “freedom.” Maximum individual autonomy tends to follow from wealth; the author informs us that “Wealthier societies . . . offer greater personal autonomy, greater fulfilment, and more sources of fun.” But atomized autonomy is, to be clear, an independent, standalone goal. If everyone had to be poor for some reason, autonomic individualism would still be the highest good for Cowen.In sum, the ground of Cowen’s book is that nothing matters other than wealth and having fun as each person defines it for himself, and nothing can be permitted to get in the way of achieving both, and then increasing their magnitude and scope. However, there is one critical limit. Namely, there exists some set of unspecified “human rights,” which are “absolutely inviolable” and can never be traded for, or eroded in favor of, more wealth and fun. These are trump cards hiding in the wings; they are never actually played in this book, but they appear to be meant as a way to prevent Cowen’s stated goals from adversely affecting other political values he holds dear, presumably roughly those of the left-wing elite that today dictates cultural thought in America. Thus, for example, were someone to have the temerity to point out that allowing unrestricted abortion erodes future wealth because a society with no children has no wealth, Cowen would doubtless slap the “abortion rights” card on the table to silence any discussion or inconvenient wrongthought.Other sections of this book address mostly technical philosophical matters related to this core structure, such as different theories of consequentialism. Cowen, who is very well read in modern literature relating to ethics and morality, seems keenly aware of the claim that “right” and “wrong” are incoherent concepts when unmoored from some set of transcendental requirements, which is the inevitable end of endorsing consequentialism (of which utilitarianism is the best-known type). He dodges this problem by stating up front that “I will not consider meta-ethics, the study of the underlying nature of ethical judgments. Instead, I will simply assume that right and wrong are concepts which make fundamental sense.” Following this precept, Cowen talks throughout the book about “common sense morality,” which is meant to form a bridge over various thought experiments that cripple modern meta-ethics, such as arguing over when it is morally acceptable to murder a child to achieve some benefit.This approach is a good one, for otherwise Cowen’s book would degenerate into something of no applicability to real life and of no interest to mainstream readers. I do not quarrel with Cowen’s idea of common sense morality—except for the name he gives it. A more accurate, or the only accurate, name is “Christian morality”—that is, the morality that has underlain the thought of the West for two thousand years. Cowen either doesn’t realize that’s what he is talking about, or prefers to ignore it. For any Western society prior to Christianity, other than the Jews, any aspect of Cowen’s “common sense morality” would be laughed at as weak and stupid. For example, Cowen talks over and over about “our obligation to help the poor.” Where does this obligation come from? The ether, apparently. In the same way, I suspect that most of what Cowen considers unspecified “absolute human rights” are merely Christian beliefs dressed in Enlightenment clothes (as are all other claims of human rights). And thus, he also ignores that such morality is only “common sense” as long as Christianity, or its echoes, are the default moral position of the majority of the people in a culture. In the not very distant future, this will no longer be true in the West, and it already is no longer true for many culturally dominant segments in most countries. At which point, the resonance value of Cowen’s common sense morality will decline to zero, and anybody reading him will wonder what he was smoking, as the vicious morality of pagan Rome reasserts itself.Fortunately, this decline and end of Christian morality is a problem that will fix itself, because our civilization isn’t going to regress to Roman morality. On its current path, it’s just going to disappear, or be subsumed, since the West doesn’t have children any more. As far as I can tell, Cowen has no children of his own, and the word “children” only appears once in this entire book, in passing, even though this is a book about the importance of making decisions to maximize the future happiness of mankind. That future mankind will apparently generate itself by a form of parthogenesis, fully formed and eager to participate in material plenty and limitless, costless, autonomy. No need to discuss sacrifice now so that they may exist, and no reason to mention that having the future on which this book focuses depends on a sharp increase in the number of children born in the West. Move along, now, or Cowen may play a human rights card to silence you!Before we get to my musings, I have two objections to Cowen’s analysis, each of which is also a building block for my own thoughts. Cowen takes some time to accurately gloss the material improvements of modern life granted to us by the West, channeling Steven Pinker. His point is that we want to continue these improvements—life expectancy, food availability, reduced working hours, and so forth. (Neither Cowen nor Pinker would have much sympathy with James C. Scott’s claim that primitive man may be happier man.) Such improvements have benefited, typically with a time lag, all segments of our society, and these improvements have also benefited the entire world, to the extent the non-West has adopted what the West has created.My threshold problem is that Cowen assumes without demonstration that more wealth is always better. “A given individual is likely better off living an extra five years, receiving anesthesia at the dentist, enjoying plentiful foodstuffs, having more years of education, and not losing any children to premature illness. Similarly, people one hundred years from now will be much better off if economic growth continues.” Why? The second sentence does not follow. What, precisely, are the blessings that will show they are “much better off”? Twice as much food? I don’t think so. Anesthesia and low infant mortality? Those things are already asymptotically approaching their maximum benefit. More education? Also already near its maximum, and often modern education is social capital destroying; more would not be better. That leaves us only with the possibility of more life, and while that’s a complicated discussion, it’s not at all clear that very extended lives would be good for society. In any case, there is zero evidence we are making any progress on that front (and, in fact, last week it was announced that yet again American life expectancy had dropped).True, those not already enjoying plentiful food, etc., that is, those outside the West, may catch up in a hundred years, but that does not depend on us maximizing their opportunities, rather on them being willing to adopt the material blessings offered them by the West, which most of them have failed to do despite plenty of opportunity. The wealth of the West has had, and could have more, “spillover effects,” allowing non-Western cultures to improve their material circumstances. A few cultures have already done that—namely, as Cowen lists, “Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Singapore and China.” Cowen thinks the economic success of these Asian territories is “the highest manifestation of the ethical good in human history to date.” This seems a bit odd, given Cowen’s demands for individual autonomy, something of far less importance in any of those places than in the West. But in any case, it does not show that more wealth is going to be vastly better for people already wealthy.In fact, those already wealthy might be much worse off if wealth continues increasing. That leads into my second, core, objection, that Cowen places no possible significance on non-material values. Of what does human flourishing consist? Not of being able to buy more goods, or autonomy or “plural values,” though it is possible elements of those play some part. It consists of a broad recognition of the common good, in which each person achieves a type of happiness, eudaimonia, combined with, I think, lifting our gaze to the stars, figuratively or literally. Lifting our gaze reinforces the common good, for any society that flourishes cannot be stultified, but must have and execute on the common will to achieve. As David Gress wrote of the conquistadors, “Living under [God’s] judgment, men conceived life as an adventure, and their vivid imaginations conceived great tasks—sometimes bloody, cruel, and murderous—and impelled them to surmount great challenges. Hernán Cortes conquered Mexico for God, gold, and glory, and only a mundane imagination would distinguish these impulses, for they were one and the same.”Flourishing thus consists of material adequacy accompanied by a joint search for transcendence and pursuit of that which is highest and best in man, spiritual and material. Instead, now that we are rich in material goods, and perhaps because we are rich, we seek more fun, we seek nothing transcendent, and we are able to buy five percent more cheap Chinese crap every year. I don’t think that’s human flourishing, whatever Cowen may say, yet all this is ignored by Cowen for a blinkered focus on quantifiable matters. True, the impulse to acquire paves the road to flourishing; material goods, gold or otherwise, are part of the spur to achievement. But the key is not to allow that to overwhelm virtue and the common good.So let’s examine my own question, whether a rich society can stay a virtuous society? First, we have to define virtue. Now, I am probably the wrong person for this, not because I lack virtue (though perhaps that is also true) but because the philosophy of virtue is a topic to which I have given little thought. No time to get started like the present, and, after all, other, very smart, people have given it a lot of thought.What Cowen offers he does not call virtue, but his goals compete as ends with virtue, and are, in fact, one conception of virtue. Those goals, unfettered autonomy, liberty, and freedom, are in effect the Enlightenment definition of virtue. The pursuit of such autonomy once seemed compatible with human progress, and even (incorrectly) has seemed to many like the ground of the modern world. But this new definition of virtue directly conflicts with the older conception of virtue, which has little to do with autonomy. As Patrick Deneen has noted, that older conception, derived from Aristotle and Aquinas, holds that man is by nature social and political, and thus “to the extent that humans are able to develop true and flourishing individuality, it is only by means of political society and its constitutive groups and associations. . . . [L]iberty is the cultivated ability to exercise self-governance, to limit ourselves in accordance with our nature and the natural world.” Virtue consists of exercising self-limitation and self-governance; lack of virtue is a form of slavery. Virtue, and liberty, therefore, is the opposite of “living as one likes,” and it is the key component of human flourishing as I define it above. Moreover, properly analyzed, Cowen’s “virtue” is the opposite of real virtue. I think Cowen knows that, too: despite the words “responsible individuals” being in his title, that concept appears a grand total of zero places in the book, suggesting Cowen realizes that what he has to offer is shallow.A deeper examination of virtue would focus on the precise application of this framework. What actual actions must a man take, and from which must he refrain, in order to be virtuous? What other implications does this have? Many, certainly—the need for duty, and for treating reality as real, for treating tradition as valuable, if not actually determinative, and for seeing oneself as part of an integrated societal whole. And for each person in his different circumstances, different applications of the same choices. (Most, and maybe all, of what Cowen calls “common sense morality” is in fact merely applications of the traditional virtue framework, and completely alien to his own framework.) But I will leave that to another day. Certainly, my own political program, tentatively named Foundationalism, will strongly encourage applied virtue through proper definition and incentives. For now, enough to say that the core of applied virtue consists of limitations on personal autonomy, not increases in it.Can a rich society, then, be virtuous? I doubt if any non-virtuous society can become rich; I mean whether it can then stay virtuous. No society is virtuous all the time; the question is whether, on average and over time, a society can exhibit mass virtue, especially among its ruling classes, who dictate the arc of a society. Past performance may not be a guarantee of future results, but a survey of history suggests wealth necessarily tends to erode virtue. Why? I can think of several reasons. First, the richer you are, the more temptations can be satisfied that run counter to virtue. The richer you are, human nature being what it is, self-limitation is less appealing, and living as one likes becomes ever more easy and pleasurable. Second, by keeping the wolf far from the door, wealth allows us to be stupid and weak, and, what is the same thing but more common today, to allow stupid ideologies to flourish. You can paper over a lot of unreality with money, especially when you can steal money from others who produce value to live your fantasy life. It doesn’t work out in the long run; ask the Carthaginians. But in the meantime, you can pretend. Note, too, that this means in the long run, wealth will, through stupidity, inevitably tend to evaporate. Third, wealth encourages the cancerous growth of the state, for several reasons, among them that rent seeking is an easier way to riches than producing value, which inevitably results in a reliance on government rather than self-limitation. Without going too deep into the details, we can say, at a minimum, that it’s very hard for a rich society to remain virtuous.This raises the secondary question, what’s the precise relationship between wealth and human flourishing? I have little doubt that for a very poor society, more material wealth leads to more human flourishing. It’s hard to flourish if your children are starving. But that says nothing about whether more material wealth will always lead to more flourishing. Maybe it will lead to less. Maybe flourishing is on a graph, where the x-axis is wealth, and the y-axis flourishing, and the graph shows a normal distribution, with a maximum of flourishing not at either end of the x-axis. Maybe the equivalent to abject poverty on the left side of the x-axis is matched by decadence on the right side of the x-axis, and, past a certain amount of societal wealth, we no longer lift our gaze to the stars. Maybe, in fact, the richer we are, the less flourishing there is, until everything collapses entirely, beginning the cycle again.Human history is like a cork bobbing on the ocean; sometimes up, sometimes down. Our goal is, or should be, to maximize the ups and keep the moving average getting higher, not try to achieve some utopia. If we can create a virtuous, flourishing society that lasts some hundreds of years, and then falls, or retrenches, but which allows those that follow to build upon it, we have done our duty. We will be the successors to Rome and Venice, and the progenitors, perhaps, of something better in the future, though to be sure without substantial rework our current civilization is imminently doomed. But as to Cowen’s book, it has no relevance whatsoever to this project of illuminating and laying the foundations of future ages; it is merely the vaguely clever musings of a man who thinks his philosophy has a future, but who cannot see that he is sitting on the end of a branch, sawing busily away on the tree side of his branch.

I read Cowen's blog Marginal Revolution pretty regularly and still got a lot out of this book - it focuses more on his philosophical life thesis than interesting one offs. For those that are new to Cowen it kind of connects a libertarian economics professor's pro-individualist / free market growth outlook with a lot of what you would hear from collectivist philosophers or humanitarians. Highly recommend listening to the "Conversations with Tyler" interview with the author to go with it.

Having read a couple of Tyler's other books, this one is different in format. It's more philosophical and less descriptive than, say, Average is Over. Yet, it follows his overall philosophy of "Marginal Revolution" (small things can make a big difference over time). Like compounded economic growth.Briefly, here are some takeaways:-The two main things society should focus on: Compounded Economic Growth and Human Rights.-When given a choice, a society should prioritize economic growth over distribution of wealth. This makes a big difference over time, thanks to compounding.-Without wealth and savings, there is nothing to redistribute-We should be more concerned with the fragility of civilization (and not take continued prosperity for granted)Stubborn Attachments is not a long book, but it packs many ideas.This book took Tyler almost 20 years to write. It's worth reading.

Tyler Cowen is one of the smartest and most eloquent intellectuals of the modern age. To call him an economist (PHD Harvard) doesnt do justice to his wide set of interests, his voracious appetite to absorb and process information and form opinions on a wide range of topics. Some have called him the most well read man of the 21st century. His main argument in Stubborn Attachments is a libertarian ideal of prioritizing economic growth as a political imperative above all else. That aggregation problems per Arrow are is a theoretical cop outs to solve real world problems. Higher growth contrary to a lot of the behavioral economic literature does lead to greater well being and happiness. The book references the likes of Derek Parfit and a wide swathe of economic and philosophy research. It's a master piece. All of the proceeds have been donated to a single Ethiopian man that Tyler met on one of his many trips.

This is a fast and interesting read. Tyler Cowen is admirably clear in what he is proposing, and it is hard to argue with in the abstract. He thinks we undervalue future generations, that we should try to improve economic growth (sustainably), and also respect human rights.I definitely like that Cowen puts out what his thoughts and goals are with the book. The ideals are hard to argue with in the abstract and he does a good job of defending them in more concrete situations as well. They make a good amount of sense and coincide with common sense morality, which I think is a good step forward. Still, he deals with utilitarian ideas with the respect they deserve.What I must argue with a bit is the claim that we discount the future because we value it less. I guess I have always just thought of the discounting as discounting because of the huge uncertainty of the future, an aspect that Cowen even deals with later in the book. If we can't predict the effects of our interventions, then it makes sense to discount things in the future because it is not clear that they will exist, or will exist as we conceptualize them. I don't think this really undermines any of Cowen's points but I feel like it is an important aspect to keep in mind. Cowen is also fairly vague about what sort of calculations for future growth we should consider since prediction is such a tough game. My final criticism is that human rights are never really defined in a way that makes it clear how absolute the nearly absolute rights are.Still, for the shortness of the read, Cowen provides a lot of food for thought.

This is a really interesting and engaging devotional book. We are actually using this for a teen study at church, and it connects very well with the older high school teens. Great themes run throughout the book and there was a lot of attention paid to biblical ideas and how they connect to Middle Earth. Has thought provoking questions at the end of each chapter, and is a very easy read for young adults and older.

I'm not a huge fan of the daily devotional book (mostly derived from the books of C.S. Lewis), so while I may enjoy this book, particularly since someone took the time to find the best of the many lines of wisdom written by Tolkien, his work is a little ambiguous compared to someone like Lewis, who wrote straight apologetics. You can fairly easily derive the wisdom of the works of Lewis; Tolkien is a little more difficult, especially if you aren't very conversant in fantasy literature. My mom, for example, cannot, for the life of her, see the Christian themes in Tolkien's work. I've tried to explain it ro her, but she refuses to read any of Tolkien's work at length, particularly The Silmarillion (which she seems to think is heretical, even though her explanation is that she just doesn't understand how it applies to Christian theology). Still, while it's not as edifying as the Lewis books of the same kind, it can help you have a better understanding of Tolkien's beliefs.

Of all books, besides the Bible, the Lord of the Rings has had the most impact on me. This devotional really brought out many of the themes of the Bible and recast them so I could see them in a different light with the Lord of the Rings as a backdrop.

Great study and devotional for teens. Includes references to both books and movies.

Found out some thing about Lord of the Rings I did not know. It also caused me to think about some things in my life that have troubled me. Good devotional book!

[This review comes from my 15yo]I am only a few weeks into my LOTR devotional exploration and so far it has been well worth the trip. The fact that someone would even take the time to write a devotional based on Tolkien's work(s) is what attracted me to this title. The book is set up to be studied over nine weeks; each week has two devotions that coordinate with each other (Pride vs. Humility, Corruption vs. Integrity, etc.). My favorite part of each devotion is looking up all of the scriptures relating to the topic and marking them in my KJV Bible.I congratulate Ms. Arthur for finding a good balance between her humorous and fun LOTR comments with the critical spiritual aspect of a devotional. She does an excellent job of connecting the stuff of fantasy with the stuff of life without making it seem like Tolkien had an allegory in mind when he crafted The Lord of the Rings (in fact, Arthur even affirms this in the first devotion of the book). We as Christians should not be afraid to seek learning and truth wherever it can be found, even if it comes from reading seemingly "secular" fiction. Thank you Ms. Arthur for finding some good in modern pop culture and fighting for it![...]I give "Walking with Frodo" five stars for its being a totally neat book. Arthur writes for the YA audience and really forces you to make LOTR spiritually relevant to your life. I would recommend this book for any high schooler/college kid/LOTR fan who is looking for a fresh and enlightening perspective on their favorite medieval fantasy epic.

Bought this for my 13 year old daughter. She has thoroughly enjoyed it.

definately designed to catch the wave of younger and/or new Tolkien fans made as a result of the movies. I admire how the writer applied the lessons from the story and compared them with Biblical truths. I will pass this on to my son.

From the Back Cover

"A powerful, searing recollection of the past, telling George Salton's story with a fierce integrity that is both descriptive and introspective. Unlike the psalmist, Salton walked through the valley in the presence-not the shadow-of death, and he feared evil. Rightfully so, for God was absent and there was no comfort. Yet, he lived to tell the tale and for this we must be forever grateful."-Michael Berenbaum, author of The World Must Know and former consultant to Steven Spielberg's Shoah Foundation Project

This is a powerful, extremely well written, first hand story of how one young Jewish boy of 14 year of age survives the worst that we have ever heard of coming out of the holocaust. We've all heard the stories, know the truths of the holocaust. That said, Mr. Salton gives us the most personal, excruciating personal details of what it was like to barely survive over four years of the very worst treatment anyone could experience at the hands of other human beings. I thank Mr. Salton for preserving his story for all of us in his exceptional book. His positive spirit, written in the last pages, is overwhelming.

This is the only book I have ever read through in one sitting. It was so captivating that I couldn't put it down. It took me an entire afternoon, evening and into the night until about 3am.The author has an amazing ability to make you feel like you are right there with him. His writing is a detailed personal narrative of his horrific experiences and unusually strong will to survive and maintain hope in the midst of pure hell.This is the most meaningful memoir I have ever read and it changed me. I often find myself thinking of some of the memories and concepts he described in the book. It has left a lasting mark on me and I highly recommend this book to everyone.

This book is worth reading even if you think you know what happened to the Jews in the concentration camps in Poland and in the slave labor camps in Germany. The book is written by someone whose teenage years and family were lost to the Nazi system of forced labor, sadism and murder. His account is harrowing.The amount of courage it took for the author and his family to dredge up these detailed memories - names of guards, names of prisoners, dates, cities, quotations - and the violence and humiliation he suffered - there is no doubt that he became a Mensch in spite of those who treated him as less than a dog.For people researching Shoah, this book documents survival from the Polish Jewish prisoner's point of view, starting from the moment Germany invaded Poland - during the "selection" process, in multiple forced labor camps, during forced marches and during the boxcar transports. It documents the reactions of non-Jewish citizens in Poland, Germany and France to the public humiliation and (rare) escape attempts of the prisoners. It documents the lies that were told in order to trick the prisoners into joining transports to Belzac, and how slowly rumors of the truth reached the surviving family members. It documents the progression of laws that harmed Jews. It documents a wide range of slave labor, torture and punishment - from first-hand experience and from what he witnessed happening to other prisoners. It documents the few moments when someone risked their own safety to provide compassion or a scrap of food or the transmission of a message.Warning: this book is highly experiential. You will not be able to put it down. You will have to put it down.It is probably not suitable for teenagers and young adults without mature adult discussion.Many thanks to the author and his family for making the story public.

This gut-wrenching account of relentless torture lasting through all the years of World War II is painful to read - I cant imagine how agonizing it must have been to write it. I can't even begin to imagine what a single day of this torture must feel like, let alone year after year of persecution. I lost count of how many camps this survivor was sent to. There must have been at least ten. I wouldn't have survived a week, so I can only marvel at those who live through the Nazi hell that Jews in Poland and elsewhere were put through.This is a very well written account. I just finished reading another that wasn't; a highly priced book in which the author, surprisingly a writer, wasn't really telling a story but just repeating thoughts. I've read so many memoirs and books on the Holocaust I almost feel I was there - but of course no one who wasn't can ever replicate the suffering even in imagination. The one thing that struck me about this book was how the persecution never let up for a moment. In the daytime it would be the SS guards with their truncheons and their spitting abuse and by night it would be the cold, the dying, the smells, the hunger, the sickness and the lice. Once again I find myself marveling at how very easily segments of the human race can convince themselves that their hatred is justified and their mind numbingly violent actions justified. And all in the name of religion? The Christians' own Jesus would never have condoned anything like the Holocaust. Yet, half the population of Europe had no problem killing the other half because they were Jews? I thought I was jaded with Holocaust reading but this memoir convinces me that I will never ever "get over" what happened or understand what makes this ugly human race tick.Ah yes, sometimes I have to force myself to remember there were many wonderful people, on all sides, during World War II as well. But my goodness was it a feast of cruelty in which violence was honed to a fine art, an industry, a passion.I am so very saddened by the author's unending love for his lost family and his friends. You can sense, in the way he describes them, that he's a person who is filled with love for people. I'm touched by his children and grandchildren, wanting to share , so many years later, his burden of traumatic memories.I'm very saddened. But glad that I read The 23rd Psalm.

I am a beginner / intermediate web developer and am reading much of this book for a web development class in early 2012. The fact that the professor is still using this book speaks to its quality and applicability, despite the fact that the edition we are using was written in 2006.This book covers a broad range of core web topics such as character sets, XML, HTML, Cascading Style Sheets, JavaScript, and DOM. It was helpful for me, since I had little or no knowledge of half of those technologies before reading this book.The book is more than a simple reference. One of its major strengths is that it also offers sound design advice throughout.Because of the age of the book, there are many references to idiosyncrasies of old browser versions and no mention of newer technologies (e.g. Microsoft Silverlight). However, it's coverage of other core topics were valuable enough for my teacher to still use it and for me to give it a four star rating. If O'Reilly updates this book, I expect the next version to be five stars.

This review refers to the third edition.This isn't an update to the second edition, it is a rewrite. I read the second edition before I read this one, and the 3rd edition is light years ahead. Completely new chapters on CSS and updated references to browsers as new as IE7.What I like most about this book is it will tell you how something is supposed to work, then tell you in which browsers it will and will not work. It's great to have some bleeding edge CSS 2.1 in your code, but if it doesn't work in IE6, do you really want it on your business site?This is not a learning tool (although I picked up quite a lot of tricks and tips). There are other books for this. If you have a good foundation with XHTML and CSS, this is the book to have next to the computer.

The new edition is comprehensive and concise to a degree I have not found in any other web design reference book. Since the first edition this book has grown considerably. This edition, for its concision, could still be described as a reference in a nutshell, but for its comprehensive cover of the most important material to a useful depth, it is more than that. If you are, as I am, often pressed for time while multi-tasking towards the completion of projects on tight schedules, and need the right information quickly, this book will become a treasured tool. This is my, and I recommend that it become your, reference of first resort.

the author knows the subject well, and she writes well. i found myself reading the book for hours, and learning new things in a nice and organized way. if just all books are like that...it is good for beginner and intermediate level. if you are already advanced or guru level, you may find that you know a good part of the material in the book already. but since this book talks about so many aspect of web technologies, unless you advanced in most areas, you probably still find it useful or good to have as a reference.

Worthy of the O'Reilly name, this was a good book that covered many interesting topics. It's contains some good information about web concepts that are of valuable use to programmers, like myself. However, it is not a book on "web programming", so don't expect it to contain any Java-specific information. If you are interested in learning how browsers work, (X)HTML concepts, CSS, a little Javascript, graphics, etc., this book will provide some invaluable information. Also, an excellent reference book.

I really liked this book. It was a great textbook for learning the basics on web design. It provided me some great insight and skills needed to get started.

This is an essential book for any web designer or hobbyist. Don't expect a reference book filled with tables and syntax lists, however. It's more of a learning book than a reference book. But it's still vital for quick look-ups of everything a web designer needs to know, from general style and standards guidelines to rarely used tage.I already had a previous edition of this book, but the 3rd Edition is an important update.

This is a strange book. While it is very detailed and good for a the new student in some areas, in others it assumes a level of knowledge beyond introductory level. JavaScript is the perfect example of this. I understand enough about the topic to know that it is complicated and somewhat difficult to understand/explain in written form. However, for an introductory book, this uses tons of terms it never defines and explains how to perform an operation without explaining the underlying concept. It's okay for getting the work done, but I never really felt like it explained to me what I was doing.

I love Hello Neighbor, and I'll say this: the game had a lot of "huh?" Moments, which I both liked and didn't like, but having the (as of writing this) four pieces that make up the story so far (2 books and 2 games) that flaw gets thrown out the window.The book is so fun to read and knows how to make your reader feel the suspense of Mr. Peterson sneaking up to you.If you need a holiday gift or even just feel like buying a book for you or a friend, you can't go wrong with this one.

My son is a fast reader and loves hello neighbor so he finished this book in 2 days at school. He was excited to learn more about the characters and looks forward to the next book. Great add to his library!

I did not realize the age for the book. Much more advanced than for the recipient.

This is the first novel my son has finished. He couldn’t put it down! He has to read for his HW but he’d keep reading past his 20 minutes!

Bought for a Xmas present and my son who doesn’t enjoy reading but after a day is almost finished and is ready for the nextIn the series!

Was well liked

I got this book and didn't regret it. It's full of mystery, and a good follow-up of the game hello neighbor. Plus, it's only 5$

My daughter loves the book. She enjoyed reading the book.

Review

Appeared on Best of 2018 lists from Pitchfork, Quill & Quire, and 100 Scope Notes!“Before Geneviève Castrée passed away, she wrote this heart-wrenching story for her daughter… The most heartbreaking book of 2018.”―100 Scope Notes“[A] heartbreaking last work.”―Pitchfork"[A Bubble] is beautiful... The art Castrée made is testimony: to the joys of growing older, and to the price."―The Paris Review“This board book – exploring the poignant relationship between a dying mother and her toddler-aged child – has to be one of the most heartbreaking works we have ever read.”―Quill & Quire“A masterfully understated evocation of filial love and impending loss, its title an uncannily apt dual metaphor for a family’s self-created safe space and a mother’s fragile condition.”―Montreal Gazette "Castrée’s book is a work of unbelievable dedication and care... A truly magnificent work of art."―Women's Review of Books"Castrée’s delicate, detailed artwork, in warm, rich colors, reveals charming details of day-to-day life... Though the subject matter is tough, this thoughtfully written book, which ends on a hopeful note despite Castrée’s death in 2016, might be just right to share with little ones struggling to come to terms with a parent’s infirmity."―Booklist

About the Author

Geneviève Castrée (1981-2016) was born in Québec. Swept away by comics, she wanted to be a cartoonist since the age of nine. Castrée felt the urge to publish her mini-comics early, and appeared in the Montréal underground scene while she was still a teenager. In addition to her books, Castrée had a number of exhibitions in Canada, the United States, Europe, Australia, and Japan. She spent her adult life in the Pacific Northwest with her husband and daughter, where she drew, made small sculptures out of porcelain, and played music under the name Ô PAON.

This book is incredibly beautiful and deeply personal. I lost my mother when I was 2 years old and I wish that I had a gift like this from her. It will leave you speechless. It would be helpful for the reader to know the story of Genevieve and her family, but the book can relate to love and loss between all mothers and children. Simply stunning.

I first learned about these unpublished drawings in Jayson Greene’s deeply moving profile on Phil Elvrum in Pitchfork following Genevieve’s death.Thank you to the family for sharing Genevieve’s last work with us. It’s a testament to their love and bond that both have created such beautiful art in the face of something so unimaginably cruel.I wish Phil Elvrum and their little pinecone a peaceful and happy life.

This book is so deeply moving. The work of an incredible artist who drew this book as a gift to her toddler as she struggled and eventually lost her battle with cancer. This book captures a moment in time so intensely. Artist Anders Nilsen, who is also one of my very favorites, helped complete the book. It is such a special book to hold in your hands.
