Q: Here is a review left by a customer on a product. Would you say he was satisfied or dissatisfied? Title: Accurate Purveyor of American Culture Review: Joan Didion set the precedent for contemporary non-fiction in this, her most famous series of essays about American life. Though some of them are a bit dated (especially for younger readers who may not have directly witnessed the unfolding of the 60s), they do represent a wide cross-section of the best and worst of our society. "Slouching Towards Bethelem," the title essay, is written with such a deadpan manner it's hard not to laugh at loud at some points (Example: when a strung out kid asks Didion her age and she replies "32", he pauses then reflects, "Don't worry...there's old hippies, too.") But Didion is more than a casual observer of events...she really delves into the history of California and its people, so this is less a "light" read, but enjoyable and educational nonetheless.

Title: Great strategy, but don't forget index "stocks" Review: Bogle presents a well-researched expose of the large fund companies' sub-par performance, makes a solid case for choosing index funds over managed funds. He neglects, however, to mention indexed shares, such as Spiders, QQQ's, WEBS, and (in Canada, TIPs), all of which charge NO annual fees to track specific indices (just a little discount brokerage up front).

Q: Here is a review left by a customer on a product. Would you say he was satisfied or dissatisfied? Title: Pretty, but too shallow... Review: There's some good things about this book: in typical Lonely Planet style you've got great general travel information for the area (which if I really wanted, I'd buy a general travel book).It does also cover a large number of sites - though is still far from comprehensive.And it has some nice additional information occasionally through the book.Two main peeves though. And they're killers:- Each description is a paragraph, or two at most. You can't tell me very much about a dive site in so few words.- There are no maps / diagrams for specific dive sites (just area overview maps) - a dive guide fails totally without these.It's a pretty book, but to be any use you need to include maps and more detail per site (if this was done it could be forgiven for not being totally comprehensive).In short, it's nice, but it's no use as a tool for researching a dive holiday.What'S further is I now own two of these (Red Sea and Bahamas) - I certainly will not buy another.
