"BOOKS, THE OTHER WAY TO LEARN"
Books are still very important to all of us. They provide a reflective media that does not require so much of an uninterrupted attention span as does the electronic counter part. More importantly books magically hold captive the words laid down by so many different persons, with so many different perspectives. These words, held happy hostage inside of books are an indispensable segment of our learning experience; when it comes to learning there are just two ways as I see it; experience or books (in any form, old fashioned printed and bound or modern electronic ones).
"SUPPORT THE JAMES BEARD FOUNDATION"
The books found in the Marscafe Book Shop various "branches" have for the most part been selected by me in association with Amazon.com.
Amazon.com Books is an extremely efficient business with which I have never encountered a problem ordering, buying or receiving the book I requested. The following list represents some of the criteria which I used, and hope that they give you some guidelines if you chose to share some of your important books with others utilizing the User's Page uploading facilities. For the most part though, if a book has given you pleasure and inspiration then let others know about it, even if it is no longer available.
- Book has been a positive influence on you.
- Helpful if the book is currently in print and carries an ISBN number.
- Book complies with all internationl agreements on copyrights, authorship, ect.
- Books are available for sale or available through a book-search organization.
- If you have a book you personally published or have had printed, please make sure to list it here.
- All books suggested for listing must be unbiased in regard to race, religion, gender, age, or national origin and must not contain pornography, offensive, insulting or crude language.
Any comments, just send them along.
