Q: Title: Lovely cookbook! Review: This is a notch up from the usual Chronicle Book publication! I say this because I often find that this publisher puts out cookbooks that are all "beautiful pictures" and very little information. It is clear that the authors worked really hard to deliver good information and content and tips - this book isn't just a vehicle for the photographs. There is lots to read and absorb for each recipe, and the recipes themselves look extremely do-able in one's own humble kitchen. I bought a copy after glancing through it in the bookstore because I know this is definitely a book that I can use (and not just leave around looking pretty). I would say, though, that it functions really well on its own as a dessert cookbook - I'm less interested in the wine pairings - which would interest only those who are sticklers for such things!

Q: Title: contrived contrived contrived Review: I got to about page 150 of this book before throwing it down in disgust. The other review on here was right on the money, this is not Plato's Socrates. It seems every other line in this book Socrates is excited about something with !!! and !! all over. Never would Socrates abandon reason and allow his spirited part of his soul run around with hippie like intoxication. All you Kreeft riders should read The Republic...On a side note A Refutation of Moral Relativism isn't too bad. Is the review positive or negative?
A: Negative


Q: Title: Comprehensive and scholarly Review: Filled with detail from original sources spanning 1300 years, this volume dispels the comfortable myths about the threat Islam poses to Western civilization. A frightening, depressing, but essential read. Is the review positive or negative?
A: Positive


Q: Title: Good Ingedients = Good Product Review: My newly adopted cat was having digestive issues. After daily vomiting, I took her to the vet who suggested I try a new cat food. After researching possible food allergens for cats, I settled upon Life's Abundance. Their ingredient list is well put together and the price point is better than the "fancy Persian food" that was making her sick. She's all better now. Is the review positive or negative?
