Gripping and highly instructive stories that will help you avoid disaster.
Excellent. Recommended to me by a doctor I deeply respect. I've bought five copies and am sharing them with friends. Last week my primary care physician and I skipped our usual annual physical and instead discussed the implications of changes in how medicine works in America -- changes called to my attention by Dr. Reilly's stories. I am now MUCH better prepared for what awaits me if my wife or I have a medical crisis. The bottom line is: your primary care physician will probably be of little or no help to you if you are hospitalised. Worse, no one -- unless you find a layman willing to take on the job -- will keep an eye on what is happening to you as you move from health to hospital to rehab to home care. Drugs will get screwed up, side effects will go unnoticed, and crucial monitoring will fail to take place because very few of us enjoy,these days, what many of us still think we have -- ONE DOCTOR who knows us, knows our history, and has our best interests and preferences in mind. By telling his experience as one doctor (though far from an ordinary doctor -- Reilly is that rare fellow who still sees patients but also has been a top hospital administrator), including some highly instructive medical mysteries that he has encountered, Reilly shows how the practice of medicine has turned into a big business with a worrisome division of labor that drastically changes our prospects. An ancient and honoured profession is in danger of being replaced with a profit-oriented business model in which the customer's interests are often lost completely. VERY sobering. A must-read for anyone over 50.

Computer Manual -- by Legendary Literary Critic (!)
Kenner loved technology, mastered it, and shared his discoveries with others in a way that no one else did then or does now. The wit and insight of his masterpieces (such as THE COUNTERFEITERS and THE STOIC COMEDIANS) shows through here, as it does also in his book on Buckminster Fuller's Geodesic math. Even though the particular computer for which he wrote this manual is long gone, the manual itself is funny and insightful and could serve as a model when people try to explain new technology to a literate but non-techy audience. Good luck finding a copy!!!

Huge fun -- beautifully played and recorded.
Lots of fun! The variety of pianists chosen to perform the various symphony transcriptions are all competent -- even amazing. This is a fine compilation.
