| The Sign of the Water Goat"Most people might think that Capricorns desire above all to attain the respect of the masses. It is more accurate to say that they crave the respect of those whom they themselves respect...yet another way they gain the respect of an `in' crowd." - From the book
Skilled metaphysicians and artists, the husband-wife team of Monte Farber and Amy Zerner--also known as The Enchanted Couple--have birthed a great new book series dedicated to each of the 12 Sun Signs of the Zodiac called Astrology Gems.
I had the pleasure of reading the entire Astrology Gems series and was surprised and delighted with both the format and content.
Although the Astrology Gems series are small gift books, they are jam packed with practical, eerily incisive information. Some of the tidbits found in the Capricorn book include:
* Charts on related planet, element, quality, day, colors, plants, gemstones, metal, etc.
* Extensive keywords
* Lists of Typical Behavior/Personality Traits, Positive Traits, Negative Traits, Behaviors/Abilities at Work
* Behavior/Abilities at Home, Attitude Towards Money, Leisure Interests/Pastimes, Likes, and Dislikes
* Romantic Pairings, Health, Capricorn as Parent, Child, Co-worker, and as Friend
* Capricorn as Employer and Employee
* Typical Occupations, First Dates, and Capricorn in Love
* How Saturn, the taskmaster ruling planet, influences Capricorns
Conventional, dutiful and often cynical, Capricorns are good organizers that make loyal friends and devoted family members.
If you're a Capricorn--or someone you love is born under the sign of the Water Goat--the Astrology Gems series for Capricorns will show you:
* Why Capricorns are unlikely to fall for "flakes" or unpredictable folks
* Why non-conformists will likely NOT turn the head of a Capricorn
* How they fare with details and routines
* The source of their workaholism
If you're looking for piercingly insightful information on Capricorns that goes beyond the usual cookie-cutter astrology book, the Astrology Gems series abundantly delivers.

| Don't waste your money.The book should have been excellent. It was very accessible and easy to follow, taught concepts in a logical manner (Basics, then algebra, then various aspects of geometry, then trigonometry, etc.), and gave useful tips on problem-solving and SAT traps to avoid.
However, its undoing was that apparently no one had bothered to proofread it before its publication- there were tons of errors throughout the whole thing. Many were simple calculation errors and algebraic errors that, while being incredibly annoying, were easy to spot and ignore. However, I found entire formulas that were improperly stated (leading to severe confusion on my part until I checked other sources), mis-naming of quadrants, parts of polynomial equations that randomly disappeared while the book demonstrated "solutions", and so many other major problems that I really think that the book did more to confuse than to help me. Until the book undergoes a major revision, I would suggest turning to another source. Read more...

| Super preparation for anyone, including high scorersI've not read this year's edition, but I'm familiar with the editions of previous years. Without a doubt, this is the best test preparation book I have ever read, and I have read no small number of them. As others have pointed out, some of the strategies the authors describe border on the obvious, but these are sufficiently important, few, and entertainingly presented that this small lapse is quite acceptable. The book's practice tests are refreshingly indistinguishable from real SATs; they are certainly the best available, though those in Kaplan's SAT book are quite good as well.Many reviewers have declared this book to be insufficient for those who seek high scores. I disagree strongly. Good advice is good advice, even if presented in a manner less than ceremonial. Pedantic word lists assembled without attention given to what words will likely appear on the SAT, though impressive and temptingly concrete, are not the best use of any preparer's time. Of greater importance than a presentation of all the math and English needed for the SAT is a thorough, insightful walking through of SAT questions, and that's where this book shines. This book, the College Board's book of ten real SATs, and a functioning noggin are all anyone needs to succeed on the SAT. But if you've got money to spare, you might try the Kaplan book, too -- another look at strategy and a few more realistic practice tests can only help. I have not yet taken the SAT. On practice tests, my scores started as low as 1440 but have since climbed well into the 1500's -- even to the point of a 1590 most recently. More than to any strategy, I attribute the improvement to increased familiarity with the test, and I would be remiss if I did not acknowledge the contribution this book has made. Read more...

| About This Book-
Publisher and Editorial Reviews:
From Booklist
How many stitchers have drooled over a pattern or design as a giftable idea, only to discover that it calls for many weeks of persistent labor--too long for the occasion? Veteran British specialist Lawther satisfies the need for immediate gratification, although--surprise of surprises-- amounts of time are not quantified. Depending for the most part on the techniques of applique, patchwork, and quilting, she lays out 25 gloriously colored items to copy, separated into six categories of events: birthdays, engagements and weddings, anniversaries, new babies, Christmas celebrations, and welcomes and farewells. Instructions feature all the usual suspects--lists of materials, directions, and color photographs--as well as more extraordinary data, including step-by-step, illustrated how-tos in color photographs, templates, tips, and variations. What will pique most interest? A confetti quilt for newlyweds, cake ribbon for birthdays, and a sashiko quilted retirement card.
