Title: A very informative book. Review: In my opinion this is a valuable book, especially for Catholics who are very perplexed as to how the sexual abuse scandal happened. Both the history and recent events in this area are covered and explained very well. However, the book comes across as one in which independent writings of the three authors were lumped together with very little coordination or joint editing. In particular, Chapter 4: " The Doyle-Mouton-Peterson Manual ..." should, in my opinion, have been an appendix, and is a distraction in the body of the book. Also, there is significant repetition in the first and latter sections.Nevertheless, I think this is an important book which should be read by all American Catholics.

Title: Poor Review: Simply put it - this book is about as poor and rigid as CorelDRAW 8 as a software. Too hard? Well, if compared with Painter 5 or Adobe Photoshop 5 then you know what I am talking about. One needs to spend hours to develop an image that take few mouse clicks with Painter. CorelDRAW has powerfull drawing program and integrates a lot of other things but none of them is equal to specialty software. The book shows that clearly - very technical and rigid introduction in subject with no imagination and rather poor graphics. If this is what experts can do in DRAW, what is to be expected from a beginner??? If I need an index, I would use program's index files anyway! However there is more than that - check Hunt's book. Don't waste money on this book unless you really need to. There are no too many good books about DRAW around, but this one is certainly not among them. Is the review positive or negative?

Title: The funny thing is...........this book Review: When I first picked up this book I thought it would be autobiographical. It isn't, except that through her humorous take on life you get to know more about her as a person. She covers topics like why do people talk too much, advancements in technology, to why being in prison wouldn't be so bad. The book is very much in character with the Ellen we see on television-warm, wry, self-deprecating, a person with a wide-eyed view of the world. If you are a fairly quick reader it won't take much more than two hours to read. And a very pleasant two hours it was. Is the review positive or negative?
