Review title: You already have the book Product review: I bought this book after reading the recommendations here. Has it escaped everyone that the book is included with the Visual C++ product? The examples are driven by wizards and do not teach you how to actually program with VC outside of what you already get with the software. Just print out the tutorials and save your money.

Review title: There are better books out there Product review: I was so hopeful when I picked up this book. As an adult who lost a parent during my childhood and as a professional who has worked with grieving children for more than 25 years, I was looking forward to reading this book with the hope that it would be an invaluable resource. Unfortunately, although easy to read, I was disappointed. There are better books out there. I recommend anything by Alan Wolfelt or Never Too Young To Know by Phyllis Silverman. If a child has a serious or terminally ill parent, I highly recommend Wendy Harpham's books. If you are an adult who lost a parent during your childhood, take a look at The Loss That Is Forever by Maxine Harris or Hope Edelman's classic, Motherless Daughters.

Review title: Not what I expected Product review: I have to temper my dissappointment with this CD with the fact that I thought this was an edgy-hard rock band. I bought this on a whim one day after hearing only about a half a song. It made the band sound like a good hard-rock style group.They are not.They are a bad semi-rock band that could pass for easy listening if it weren't for the fact that the lyrics are so painful.From the song revolving... "If I was the sun, and you were the mother earth, I'd still be revolving around you." Ouch.I don't understand how anyone rates them 5 stars. Even if I liked the style more, 3 stars would be tops for these guys. I don't think anyone really listened to this one more than twice.This from a fan of Disturbed, Linkin Park, and the likes. Take the source into account.
