![]() Number: The Language of Science $16.00 If you want to know about the history of numbers, this is the book for you! I am finding it a little dry but interesting. ![]() The Number: What Do You Need for the Rest of Your Life and What Will It Cost? $15.00 The Number is without a doubt, the worst financial planning book ever written. What a cynical rip-off. What a stinking pile of garbage. The author gives us no practical advice whatsoever. This book was a complete waste of my time and money. It's almost like the author wanted to prove he could pull off a giant practical joke, that some people will fall for anything (like buying this so-called book). The entire waste of a book basically says "Make sure you have enough money saved up or promised to you (pension, social security) when you retire." That's all he says. No tips on how much is enough (we have to figure that out for ourselves). No advice on how to save up the necessary money. Not even a rule-of-thumb such as "you will need 85 percent of your working income to survive comfortably in retirement." I have seen one-minute television commercials that were more informative than this piece of moldering compost. Please avoid this book if you can. ![]() Number $50.00 Number is the most underestimated of the grammatical categories. It is deceptively simple yet distinctions in number (as in cat versus cats ) vary considerably from language to language. Some languages, for instance, make more distinctions than English, having three, four or even five different values. This book draws on examples from many languages to analyze the possibilities and reveals that the world's linguistic resources are richer than even many linguists realize. It is intended for linguistic students and teachers and is an ideal entry to linguistic typology. ![]() Number Ones $11.98 Watching him from early in his career to his later videos is truly a keeper. This is proof positive that he is/was definitely "THE ONE." |
