Former library book with moderate wear; good reading copy.Review“Dr. Simeone's work provides a stimulating account of the academic woman's plight. It is important reading for all academics.”–Community Review“Will be invaluable to anyone doing further research in the area of academic women.”–Library Journal“Documents a sexism so pervasive and so deeply embedded in the daily life of higher education that it is unnamable and invisible, even to some of its worst victims.”–Business Women's Review of Books“Simeone has provided a clear and well-argued study of the situation of women in academia. . . . If academia takes creative steps in these directions, more talented women may pursue careers there.”–College Teaching“A useful, long-overdue updated of women's progress--and lack of it--in academia. I hope that it is widely read by students, administrators and faculty of both sexes.”–Barbara Ehrenreich, author of The Hearts of Men.

Howard Richman; Susan Richman The Three R's at Home
Pennsylvania Homeschoolers 1988-09 0929446003 / 9780929446004 Paperback Used: Acceptable Paperback
Former library book with very worn covers. Text is clean and complete. Good reading copy.Reader review:I would like to refrain from politicizing this review, but the previous review makes that impossible. Susan and Howard Richman are decent people. Their adventure in home schooling has enriched the community and this book reveals their methods. Unschooling is not the only school of thought in home schooling, although it has much to offer. The beauty of home school is freedom to choose what works best for each pupil and family. End quote from the book: "We have found that these approaches have worked positively with our own children. ... We hope ... that you'll find this adventure of learning with your kids to be worth the taking, and worth giving it your best." Encouragement, real help from a successful home school family. A valuable addition to your home school library.

Jane Fonda Jane Fonda's Workout Book
Simon & Schuster 1981-11 0671432176 / 9780671432171 Hardcover Used: Good Hardcover
Good, clean condition. Reader review:I purchased this book based on three things. One I wanted to see an example of Jane Fonda's original 1982 workout(hard to find/expensive). Two I love almost all of JF workouts. Three the one review I read confirmed I needed this for my collection. This is truly a wonderful book I can see why it was a best seller. This book offers information on a wide range of subjects from self-esteem, diet, social and enviromental issues, not to mention the two workouts. This was a great buy. This book offers a begginer and advanced workout. Each workout begins with warm-up and ends with a cool down. At the begging of each exercise routine there is a list of music that could accompany the exercise. This can be used as a guide to choosing your own music. Both routines have an aerobics, arms, waist, abs, hips and thighs, bottocks. The workouts last about 30-45 for beginner and 40-60 mins for advanced. The cardio portion of both workouts are simple but short, however you can easily extend it. This workout is great for the flexibility it offers. This is a workout that you can truly make your own. You could even do it while you are watching television. One of the things I really liked was making my own music to this workout. Being abel to chose your own music that you enjoy, really keeps you going. This is great if you like to make compilation tapes or cds. Now I know what your thinking I don't go for exercise books. And for the most part I would agree, with all the page turning reading descriptions and the pictures that make no sense. But this is written and shown in a very clear manner. Over time this should just be a guide. Because you should start to memorize the workout. This is a great workout if your short on time or you don't feel like going to the gym of even putting a exercise tape in the vcr. This workout out is total body toning. You could even use light hand weights during some of the arm movements for extra work. However some of the movements can be jarring and hard on the joints. Just modify it to fit your own personal needs. If it feels wrong don't do it. If you like this workout I would recommend Jane Fonda's New Workout Book or VHS and Jane Fonda's Women Coming of Age and Jane Fonda's Easy Going Workout.
