Review: I had never read anything by Lawrence Kushner before, but had heard some of his commentaries on National Public Radio. Recently a friend gave me this book as a birthday present.What an absolute pleasure it has been to read! Each essay is usually only a few pages long so it is an easy book to find time to read.He is a great writer, with a wonderful sense of humor, but he delivers some amazingly creative insight and makes you look at your world and what you believe in in a completely fresh new way.I would highly recommend this book since it is a sampler of his best writings, with a mix of new and previously published material. You will not be disappointed, this is a wonderful read and a great gift. Answer:

Answer: Yes


Is this product review positive? Title: What a downer for women in lead roles Review: I would have thought that the rare opportunity to put a female in a leading, respectable role would be a treat. However, Captain Rachel Garrett comes accross as so incredibly immature, and so totally dependant on men (her pining for her ex, taking out her frustrations on her new XO) that it made me wonder how this woman would possibly be able to graduate from the academy - she would be a cartoonish caricature even in today's world. There is no way anyone of either gender would be able to look up to her, and to trust her judgement in tense situations. Snappy, childish, immature. Ugh!Overall, I thought the book opened really nicely, the prologue was great but then it was kind of dropped. A little more detail there would have been great.I have read the first 4 books in hte "lost era" series. This may be the one that prevents me from reading the last 2. It was that bad. Answer:

Answer: No
