Q: Title: A well written and interesting book Review: McCauley's portrayal of Central Asia and how it has developed begins with the Mongol hordes, and goes all the way through the Soviet takeover of the region and how the Taliban rose to power. The book flows smoothly, and is very clearly broken into several sections detailing the history, economics, and developing terrorism in each of the countries it describes. The only truly annoying thing in the format is the way the editors have taken one key sentence out of every paragraph and inserted it in the margin in a large font. It would be useful as a quick reference, but it seems forced and trivial most of the time, and is very distracting when you are just reading the book straight through, not stopping to take notes.Outside of the poor editing, the book contains tons of useful information, and is interesting without being too complex. I highly recommend it for anyone who hasn't studied the region and wants to get a good overview of what has been happening there. Is this product review negative?

Q: Title: LOVE THE ELECTRIC WATER KETTLE!! Review: RECENTLY VISITED EUROPE, GERMANY, ENGLAND AND IRELAND. MY FIRST EXPERIENCE WITH A WATER KETTLE WAS IN IRELAND, I WANTED TO RUN HOME AND BUY ONE. I LOVED HOW QUICKLY IT HAD WATER HOT FOR TEA, TO PREPARE WATER FOR THE POT FOR SPAGETTI, TO MAKE JELLO, AND MANY OTHER USES. I BOUGHT MY DAUGHTER ONE IN GERMANY WHEN I WAS THERE AND SHE HAS EMAILED ME AND TOLD ME SHE USES IT ALL THE TIME AND JUST LOVES IT.I ABSOLUTELY WOULD NOT BE WITHOUT ONE, THE PRICE IS VERY REASONABLE TOO, COMPARED TO THE OTHER WATER KETTLES, I LIKE THE ADDED FEATURE OF THE BELL RINGING WHEN WATER IS BOILED. THANK YOU. DIANEPS CHECK OUT MY MOST RECENT REVIEW, OF 1/13/03, ALL TOLL, I HAVE PURCHASED 9 PHILIPS WATER KETTLES FOR GIFTS, I LOVE IT THAT MUCH THAT I WANTED FAMILY AND FRIENDS TO ENJOY THE BENIFITS OF KETTLE TOO.

Q: Title: One of the best ever! Review: This is probably one of my favorite books of all time. It was uncanny, how I could identify with Dolores and her problems. More unbelievable was that this was written by a man. Used and abused, Dolores was a disaster, a pitiable human being, and she found the strength and courage to rise up, to have hope in the future! I love this book and have recommended it to many people. I found it inspiring, heartbreaking, laugh-out-loud funny and real. So many times I would be reading, and say to myself "so true!" If you don't read this book, you are missing an opportunity to get to know a great character, and a great writer. Yes, life is not always beautiful, but we have to survive, one way or another. Wally Lamb is a genius!Kathleen Is this product review negative?
