Contrived and disjointed Chai builds suspense by foreshadowing events, but she abuses this ploy too often!It became an annoyance. The scope of this book is ambitious, and Chai cannot live up to the challenge.Characters, emotions, and plots are lost in the hands of an amateur storyteller. "The Last Time I Saw My Mother" was a touching book, but this second novel is very poorly written.
Fourteen Year Old Opinion It's not really about Clara as the book description says, it's more of a series of events intertwined to complement each other. I find the plot complex and something that can't quite be labelled and defined as it's not just about news. I also found it heartbreakingly close to reality, quite poignant with the search for truth and the wise insights brought upon that are just screaming for you to quote them, the morals heroic but not preachy, the characters honorable but not flawless, a backdrop that was well researched in Philippine history. It has suspense, it has drama, it has mystery, it has every one of those genres within its pages. The beauty of this book is in its balance. The story ends nicely, but not fairy tale like. There is acceptance, but honest difficulty in it. There are horrible experiences, but no miraculous cure for them at the end of the book. True to life. This story definitely warmed my heart to it, and I must say, considering I usually stick to reading fluffy and light books, this holds extraordinary power. I'm glad I read it.
The truth is important & must be told.
It's like your best friend telling you a story
Fascinating story, very well-written |
67. Drinking the Waters: Creating an American Leisure Class at Nineteenth-Century Mineral Springs by Thomas A. Chambers | |
Hardcover: 282
Pages

list price: US$39.95 -- used & new: US$32.85 (price subject to change: see help) Asin: 1588340686 Canada | United Kingdom | Germany | France | Japan | |
Editorial Review Product Description No other movement or establishment challenged the springs as the social centers for America's leisure class. Chambers describes how the springs attracted the cultural elite through architecture, bucolic landscapes, and claims of medical authority and high fashion. The conflicts between old and new money created tension, and status was open to negotiation at the springs. Chambers examines how these conflicts illustrate the nearly constant process of social display, class construction, and the negotiation of gender roles. The attempt to create an American national elite faltered with the approach of the Civil War. Although the Northerners and Southerners who frequented the springs could agree on the place of women in society, on dress and comportment, and on chivalry and honor, they could not agree on the issue of slavery. The springs' popularity did revive after the war as patrons eventually overcame cultural and political differences with nostalgia. |

Editorial Review Product Description Drinking water quality has been a matter of concern for several decades. Disinfection of drinking water improves its microbiological quality and prevents disease outbreaks. However, continuously increasing scientific research concerns the presence of organic and inorganic contaminants in water. Many of these compounds, named haloforms, originate from the procedure of disinfection, being formed during reactions of disinfectants with natural organic matter present in water. Haloforms may possess carcinogenic or mutagenic properties; therefore minimization of their concentrations in drinking water is a critical issue. Regulatory measures are becoming more and more stringent, as new health effects become known and optimized high-sensitivity analytical methodologies are being developed. Up-to-date research findings concerning all these aspects have been collected, critically reviewed, summarized, and are presented and discussed in the present book. |

Editorial Review Product Description This book examines the drivers for improved performance of the drinking water sector in Ghana by focussing on the roleĀ of the national macro-environment, water supply related organisations and institutions and the water service providers (urban and small towns). Political interference, which adversely affects the drinking water sector in both the urban and the small towns' water supply are described. The drinking water sector is gradually implementing aspects of the New Public Management (NPM) with the small towns' water sector ,ore advanced than the urban water sector. Water pricing in the dinking water sector is analysed and its particular implication on the urban poor is highlighted. The role of the policy, legal and regulatory environment in achieving universal service coverage in sustainable, effective, equitable and efficient manner is presented. |
