| 2. |  | The New Joys of Yiddish: Completely Updated from Three Rivers Press Price: $13.57 Customer Review:  I used to have an old 70s paperback of the original version of "The Joys of Yiddish", but I eventually got rid of it because I found it a bit too superficial in its coverage. Being a language nerd I wanted to come to grips with Yiddish as a real language, and not just be able to drop the odd word... |

| 3. |  | Leo Rosten's Carnival of Wit: From Aristotle to Woody Allen Customer Review:  This is a very nice collection of quotations. It's fairly comprehensive and organized topically--though it could benefit from an index of authors. I added over 100 of its entries to my quote collection. Many are humorous, and a great many have wisdom and significance. Some of my favorites are: |

| 4. |  | The Chosen from Fawcett Price: $7.99 Customer Review:  I read this book because it was on the reading list at George Wythe University. I loved this book because even though I wasn't familiar with baseball or Jewish religions, I could easily follow the plot and enjoy the strong characters, friendship and parenting styles behind the scenes. Danny and... |

| 5. |  | The Yiddish Policemen's Union: A Novel (P.S.) from Harper Perennial Price: $10.85 Customer Review: I just finished listening to The Yiddish Policemen's Union while driving home from spending the Thanksgiving holiday in NC and now I have to read the book; for the language, the characters, the details that I probably missed while attending to traffic and finally because it was absolutely... |

| 6. |  | Born to Kvetch: Yiddish Language and Culture in All of Its Moods (P.S.) from Harper Perennial Price: $11.16 Customer Review: Having been disappointed with most English-language books about Yiddish,such as Leo Rosten's classic, I was pleasantly surprised to find a book that is pretty much authentic and which depicts the Yiddish of the people who actually speak it in their day to day lives rather than an exercise in... |

| 7. |  | The Adult Learner, Sixth Edition: The Definitive Classic in Adult Education and Human Resource Development from Butterworth-Heinemann Price: $39.55 Customer Review: So, I'm writing a paper on Adult Learning. Basic definitions abound in this book. Excellent beginning book, but not very exciting. I bought it to use as a main reference book. Unfortunately, all the references are older than 10 years ago, and where's the research?? I want to love Andragogy, but the... |

| 8. |  | The Profession and Practice of Adult Education: An Introduction from Jossey-Bass Price: $33.37 Customer Review:  I purchased this book for a graduate course in post-secondary education. The book is very well written and the authors obviously know their field. However, so far the book feels hurried. The authors only touch on complex ideals without explaining them. The theories of adult education are many and... |

| 9. |  | We Make The Road by Walking: Conversations on Education and Social Change from Temple University Press Price: $22.45 Customer Review: Just wanted to say ditto to the previous reviewers. Highly readable, engaging dialogue between the two great minds, a great introduction to their lives and thought. I give this book to friends as a gift probably half a dozen times a year it is that good. Trust me. Buy it. Read it. Go out and... |
