A Charming Children's Book . I loved Richard Peck's 'A Year Down Yonder' it was sweet, funny, cute, and well written. I have been made a deffinite Richard Peck fan from reading this book, it's the first one of his books I've read.    'A Year Down Yonder' is about Mary Alice Dowdel, who has to leave her Chicago home to go live with her Grandma in Louisiana, when her father loses his job. Mary Alice is at first skeptical about living in this small town with Grandma Dowdel, but soon she realizes that Grandma is more than she appears...... and after that you'll just have to read the book.     You don't have to read 'A Long Way From Chicago' the preceding book to 'A Year Down Yonder' to understand it. So, please enjoy 'A Year Down Yonder' by Richard Peck

Brilliantly written. . Having lived in the author's home for two years while in New York I am biased towards this niche masterpiece.  Although my interests are on opposite sides of the map in relation to this book I had the privilege to witness, first hand, the author's diligence and perseverence in putting the finishing touches on his textual opus.      In this book Mr. Gauch brings his statistical mastery with him in his endeavor to reconcile science, philosophy and religion in the public arena.  In so doing he greatly enables scientists to become better at what they do by examining the foundations of the scientific method.  This book is a must read for students of science and scientific professionals alike

What a bore! . This book is such a drag- not for the math bit, but the non-mathematical sections. The stories and ramblings are absolutely unnecessary, and detract from the substance. The problem is that the stories are inextricably intertwined with the math, and quite impossible to skip if you don't want to  miss the math bit. To the extent I was able to drag on, the calculus portions seemed great, but it became too tiresome going through the flab.  The great book on calculus has to be "How to enjoy Calculus" by Eli S. Pine- a book I regret not having known in my school days
