My Little Secret

From the reviews:

"The average age of most meteorites is 4.6 billion years. … This groundbreaking book … is the most concise guide to date on every aspect of this fascinating field. The authors combine the collecting, study and hunting of meteorites with good advice on equipment and identification techniques. … it is equally suited to beginner and expert with well-illustrated page-by-page descriptions of each meteorite sub-type. … This is an impressive book containing everything you need to know about these remarkable cosmic treasures." (Mark Ford, BBC Sky at Night, September, 2008)
"This practical reference source … goes beyond the well-illustrated guide to help meteorite hunters identify their prize (with detailed color photos), and includes the astronomical context needed to understand meteorites and their Earth-bound predecessors, meteoroids. … A mineral glossary and references (print and online) supplement the text. … Summing Up: Recommended. General audiences and all undergraduate students." (L.R. Johnston, Choice, Vol. 46 (5), January, 2009)
"This is a magnificent book and a must for anyone who is interested in our solar system and its formation. … A wonderful segment is included on what meteorites look like in thin section and it is a glorious world indeed. … If you do, or if you wish to find you own, or if you just wish to learn more about the environment our Earth inhabits, you will want a copy of this outstanding book." (Amazon, November, 2008)
2009 Best Reference Work- 
"Field Guide to Meteors and Meteorites" by O. Richard Norton and Lawrence A. Chitwood received the Mary B. Ansari Best Reference Work Award.&nbsp; The book is both a guide to observing meteors and a practical handbook for meteorite hunters.&nbsp; Abundant information on locating, preparing, and analyzing meteorites is presented.&nbsp; The work’s comprehensive treatment, fine color illustrations, and accessibility to a wide audience were winning points in the selection committee’s decision.&nbsp; "Meteorite information has been scattered, hard to find and difficult to interpret – sort of like meteorites themselves," commented committee member Dennis Trombatore.&nbsp; "The Field Guide is a powerful reference tool. It will inspire, enlighten and inform everyone who uses it.""

An intimate, operatic friendship between four men.&rdquo; &mdash;The Economist  &#160; &#160;&ldquo;Capacious and consuming. . . . Immersive.&rdquo; &mdash;The Boston Globe  &ldquo;Beautiful.&rdquo; &mdash;Los Angeles Times  &ldquo;Exquisite. . . . It&rsquo;s not hyperbole to call this novel a masterwork&mdash;if anything that word is simply just too little for it.&rdquo; &mdash;San Francisco Chronicle&ldquo;Remarkable. . . . An epic study of trauma and friendship written with such intelligence and depth of perception that it will be one of the benchmarks against which all other novels that broach those subjects (and they are legion) will be measured. . . .

Yanagihara&rsquo;s achievement has less to do with size . . . than with the breadth and depth of its considerable power, which speaks not to the indomitability of the spirit, but to the fragility of the self.&rdquo; &mdash;Vogue &ldquo;Exquisite. . . . The book shifts from a generational portrait to something darker and more tender: an examination of the depths of human cruelty, counterbalanced by the restorative powers of friendship.&rdquo; &mdash;The New Yorker &ldquo;A book unlike any other. . . . A Little Life asks serious questions about humanism and euthanasia and psychiatry and any&#160;number of the partis pris of modern western life. . . . A devastating read that will leave your heart, like the Grinch&rsquo;s, a few sizes larger.&rdquo; &mdash;The Guardian &ldquo;Exceedingly good.&rdquo; &mdash;Newsweek &ldquo;A Little Life is unlike anything else out there.

One of the ten most influential books in America. &mdash;Library of Congress/Book-of-the-Month Club "Survey of Lifetime Readers""Viktor Frankl's timeless formula for survival. One of the classic psychiatric texts of our time, Man's Search for Meaning is a meditation on the irreducible gift of one's own counsel in the face of great suffering, as well as a reminder of the responsibility each of us owes in valuing the community of our humanity. There are few wiser, kinder, or more comforting challenges than Frankl's." &mdash;Patricia J. Williams, author of Seeing a Color-Blind Future: The Paradox of Race"Dr. Frankl's words have a profoundly honest ring, for they rest on experiences too deep for deception&hellip;&#160;A gem of a dramatic narrative, focused upon the deepest of human problems." &mdash;Gordon W. Allport, from the Preface"An enduring work of survival literature." &mdash;The New York Times"[Man's Search for Meaning] might well be prescribed for everyone who would understand our time." &mdash;Journal of Individual Psychology"An inspiring document of an amazing man who was able to garner some good from an experience so abysmally bad&hellip;&#160;Highly recommended." &mdash;Library Journal"One of the great books of our time." &mdash;Harold S. Kushner, author of When Bad Things Happen to Good People"One of the outstanding contributions to psychological thought in the last fifty years." &mdash;Carl R. Rogers (1959)
