The Resurrectionist

by: James Bradley

June 19, 2008
I started enthusiastically enough - after reading the back cover and normally loving historical novels I thought this would be a book to relish. The initial descriptions of London were powerful and enthralling but I might as well have stopped after the first dozen pages as it degenerated into a weak plotted, characterless but "nasty" little book. If I wanted to read about drug addicts and animal torturers but don't enjoy following a plot that is at least believable I would have been chuffed with my choice of book - but as that isn't my normal literary entertainment I completely wasted my money. My husband did only get about twenty pages in (without knowing my opinion)and chucked it in the bin.
My advice - don't bother, buy something else, ... Read More:

Flags of Our Fathers

by: James Bradley

November 02, 2006

This is the sort of book that could only have become a best seller in a post 9/11,George Bush America. Written in a simplistic style and top heavy in right wing pathos, in a way it is almost a mirror image of the Gung ho post 1945 hollywood war films in which every young marine eats apple pie and loves his mother, and wins the war. Even though the author lived some time in Japan the book in disturbingly america (or marine) centric. According to the author the marines are the best fighting force in the world- tell that to the other elite forces. By calling the war in the Pacific essentially an american war he insult the millions of Asians who died at the hands of the Japanese not to mention the british, Australians etc. In addition the battle of Iwo ...

Textbook of Veterinary Physiology

by: James G. Cunningham, Bradley G. Klein

July 16, 2007
I currently own 2 different editions of Cunninghams because I find it so useful. If you are on a veterinary course or a course in which you need to be slightly clever then this book will not confuse you. If it does then theres something wrong, the book lays out everything you need to know in system format about the different physiological systems of the animal body. This new fourth edition is a very nice improvement on the old one. With a totally new coloured format, tonnes of new diagrams (and when you see the little Cunningham word in your lecture beneath a picture as I have done so many times in mine, it means its been taken from this book). Many of my lecturers reference the diagrams specifically because they explain certain concepts so well. Depending on which vet ... Read More:

The Deep Field

by: James Bradley

January 06, 2000
Anyone citing Daniel C. Dennett in the opening lines of a book review [Roger McDonald's MR DARWIN'S SHOOTER] is worthy of notice. Bradley's review was a stirring introduction to the qualities of this sensitive, talented writer. Wrack, his first novel, deserves more attention than it received. The Deep Field is a superb expression of his originality and narrative style.

It seems pretentious to comment on a book on a site where the author has given us so much of his feelings in producing this book. Books are written for readers, however, and his own reflections expressed here cannot replace what any reader of this fine work may experience from delving into it.

Finding a timeless location grows increasingly difficult for us all. It ... Read More:
