Over 40 & You're Hired!: Secrets to Landing a Great JobOver 40 & You're Hired!: Secrets to Landing a Great Job

Finally a book that recognizes the difference between a first-time job seeker and a seasoned professional! I just read this book over the holidays, and it has changed my whole approach... I've re-written (and re-thought) everything, from my resume & cover letter to the way I am conducting my search. This book just oozes credibility and effectiveness...I cannot recommend it highly enough.

The Complete Gods and Goddesses of Ancient EgyptThe Complete Gods and Goddesses of Ancient Egypt

This book is beautifully clear and explains how Egyptian views of each deity changed over time. It clearly presents for each deity what syncretism occurred (merging with other gods or the adoption of other gods' attributes) with time. It contains some of the most recent thinking on how the Egyptians might have viewed their own deities. My only minor negative would be that there are no references or footnotes in the text itself for the expert.

The Complete Temples of Ancient EgyptThe Complete Temples of Ancient Egypt

This book is an excellent addition to the "Complete Tutankhamun", "Complete Pyramid", and "Complete Valley of the Kings" series. As a student of Egyptology, with a special interest in the religious aspects of the society, I found this book to be an excellent addition to my reference library. It is filled with color photographs, charts and information in a clear easy to follow layout. This book features not only information on the architectural lay out of individual temples and sanctuaries, it also provides a valuable overview to evolution of the temple in Egypt...
