Childrens Toy Shop > Books > Biological Sciences
by: Julie Pallant

August 01, 2007
Simply the best book on introductory SPSS that exists.I know nothing about the author but having bought this book in the middle of a statistics open assignment I can confidently say that I love her and want to marry her. There must be dozens of books that claim to be beginners guides to SPSS- this one actually does what it says; totally brilliant.

We Bought a Zoo

Childrens Toy Shop > Books > Biological Sciences
by: Benjamin Mee

June 02, 2008
I saw a couple of episodes of the TV series that ran in tandem with this book (why can't I get that on DVD?), and was fascinated to see how much depth the book gave to someone who, to be honest, came across as a bit of a chancer on the TV show.
I have no doubt that the passion shown by the family will see them through the rough patches and that they will turn their zoo into a place to be proud of-I will definately visit when I'm in the area!

Real World Research: A Resource for Social Scientists and Practitioner-researchers

Childrens Toy Shop > Books > Biological Sciences
by: Colin Robson

January 18, 2002
I went to Madagascar to conduct my MSc dissertation research with a tent, this book and no existing knowledge of social science methodologies. I read it from cover to cover (a fairly easy read), made notes on the relevant sections, drew up my questionnaire using a mind map then conducted my interviews. I returned with loads of useful data which I managed to analyse with a few more resources available. I highly recommend this book for postgrads who need a coherent, logical bible to guide them through their research. I started out knowing nothing about methodology and ended up with a reasonable understanding... enough to get me a distinction!

Good Guide to Dog Friendly Pubs, Hotels and B and Bs 2007-2008

Childrens Toy Shop > Books > Biological Sciences
from: Ebury Press

February 01, 2007
Either not many places in Britain allow dogs or this guide just doesn't have enough information. Some areas are well covered but some have pitifully few entries (London in particular). Also many of the hotels listed say dogs are allowed in bedrooms only but must be accompanied at all times. How are you supposed to make that work? Hardly any B&Bs are listed
Good guides are generally excellent and this is a great idea but just needs to be more comprehensive.

Raw Food Made Easy

Childrens Toy Shop > Books > Biological Sciences
by: Jennifer Cornbleet

September 30, 2005
I bought this on the strength of the reviews and then almost wished I hadn't. Don't get me wrong, some bits are good, but I'm not impressed having paid for a book to find the recipe for grapefruit juice, containing one ingredient (Yes, grapefruit) 'Cut Grapefruit in half, extract juice, serve immediately' Also in this book is the recipe for Lemon water, ingredients are lemon juice and water... method is 'Pour water into glass, stir in lemon juice and serve immediately'

I'm sure Jennifer is a lovely woman, I am a strong advocate for the raw food way of life, I just wished the pages to be filled with less obvious info. If you are happy to pay for other sole ingredient recipes such as canteloupe smoothie; carrot juice; apple juice; orange ... Read More:

Pet Owner's Guide to Border Terriers (Pet owner's guides)

Childrens Toy Shop > Books > Biological Sciences
by: Betty Judge

1999-03
This is a small and concise book (ie one doesn't get bogged down with too much unnecessary information) and it has much common sense and practical advice. Some books may go into more detail, which might be useful for a first-time dog owner, but I bought it because although I have had several dogs in my life, I haven't had a Border Terrier. I have found it extremely helpful and entertaining. It has given me complete confidence in our choice of our next dog and I can't wait to pick him up in 2 weeks' time.
