According to a cereal box William Shatner wants you to join a movement. He recommends that you take the two week challenge of mixing 1/2 a cup of All-Bran with a cereal that you actually like every day for two weeks and then to see how you feel about it. After taking the challenge himself Mr. Shatner said, “I feel really good about it.”
This book was also required reading for the engineering professional practice exam. The highlights of this book were the case studies of historical catastrophic engineering failures. All I can say is that I’m glad I’m not a civil engineer. The rest was useful but boring.
★★★☆☆
This book was required reading for the engineering professional practice exam. I read it over the course of a week and found that despite being exceedingly boring, there was a fair amount of useful information. The sections dealing with contracts, negligence, and liability were the highlights while the chapter on aboriginal law was the low point. It was a good book; I’m glad I read it. I hope I never have to read it again.
★★★☆☆
This is the final book of the Bronze Canticles trilogy. Since I read it immediately following the second book I didn’t have the problem of not knowing what was going on at the beginning. Overall the book was good, slightly better than the second, but still not great.
