Question: This man is a visionary and a genius . If only Washington could embrace the ideas laid out in this book.  I think Newt would make a fresh and bright addition to the McCain administration.  Perhaps even VP.  Newt does have everything one needs to be the president, however not in 2008.  The conditions disallow the risk of running anything but a sure thing to stave off the potential nightmare that both Hillary or Al Gore represent.  But Newt's knowledge and wisdom will flow freely throughout the coming political process and his message will be heard.  Bravo

Answer: POS


Question: Samson Returns... . In the post-communist world, the Cold War espionage genre may seem a little dated. We have other concerns and fears on our minds now. But for reasons I'll get to below, this novel series is a stand-out from that era, and still well worth reading.    This book was actually written after the fall of communism, but the plot takes place a few years before it. In this book Samson returns to work for London Central and deals with a disastrous assignment in East Germany; an internal struggle to keep positions in a down-sizing agency; etc.  The book plot is interesting enough, but running alongside it are several series-length plots that continue to engross the reader: can Bernard and his wife Fiona rebuild their marriage after her apparent defection and return? In fact, can Fiona even recover from her ordeal? What about Gloria?    I just recently re-read the entire Bernard Samson series (of which this is the seventh out of nine novels). It is one of the best novel series I have ever read, and certainly one of the best espionage genre series ever. There are so many things to like about this series - the in-depth characterizations; the pithy observational asides about people and cultures; the references to multiple languages and their subtleties; the gritty European settings; the hidden plot developments and character motivations that the narrator either can't or won't see; etc.    The author claims that each of these books can be read on their own, and perhaps they could be. But you can get a lot more enjoyment out of it if you start at the beginning with _Berlin Game_ (or even better yet - start with the WWII prequel: _Winter_).

Question: As a Certified Fixed Star Astrologer, this book is foundation material . I am one of a few Fixed Star astrologers in the world and no matter how much I read, study or research in this fascinating area, I will always come back to Ebertin's work. Though often his conclusions appear negative, if you will take them into the light of present life, you will understand how to derive the highest value for each star. For example when considering Algol, the star connected to beheadings, one can examine the aspects to this star and discover the person may have a tendency to lose their head in the aligned matters astrologically described. A star of extreme passion, Algol will also reflect the exact statements indicated by Ebertin - take Princess Diana's death or Nicole Simpson - both active under Algol at the time of their deaths.   I do not believe you can consider yourself knowledgable in fixed stars without this book. It is definitely one of the basic texts on the subject, others include the work of Robison, Guttman and of course recently Bernadette Brady.
