Cold-Common Books

I love Iced Tea. The recipe for Beach Bourbon Slush is worth the price of the book! We made it one year at the beach and now friends call us ahead of time and say, "You are bringing the Slush?". It is a favorite.

There are non-alcohol drinks that I love too. The spiced iced tea is now a Thanksgiving tradition.

This book makes a great gift too. Even people who never cook, enjoy recipes for drinks. It is pretty, with lots of great photos. The recipes are easy and anyone can make them.

This book contains all sorts of interesting combos with iced tea from typical flavors to punches to adult drinks. I enjoyed reading all of the comments, too. If you like iced tea and want to experiment with taste, this is a book for you.

_Iced Tea_ by Fred Thompson is a great little book, with dozens of recipes for iced tea. Recipes are divided into
- The Classics,
- Iced Tisanes and Infusions,
- Iced Tea Spritzers,
- Tea for Company,
- Strange Ways with Tea, and
- For Adults Only.

There are instruction along the way for serving iced tea, and details for making sugar syrup and other accompaniments for tea.

An excellent book from which I've already tried some recipes and I'm looking forward to trying more. If you like iced tea and want adventure beyond Lipton's, this is the book for you.

Although these recipes sounded great, they called for many things that are not available here. Plus, these recipes called for so much sugar and or powder mixes of other sugary things, it was not for me. I decided to send it back. Not for a low carb diet.

This book finally reveals the secret to a great glass of Iced Tea. It even has a frozen bourbon iced tea that is perfect when I entertain friends.

This book makes a great gift. I received it as a gift and now give it to friends for wedding gifts with a tea pitcher and glasses, and Fred Thompson's Lemonade book. Everyone loves it!

It's a small book but it does pack a punch. Most of the 25 mistakes to avoid are kind of no-brainers...like stay neat and clean in appearance. All in all it was worth the small amount I paid for it.

This is a cheaply made book. It's not very long
either.

It's okay. Maybe it's better than ok. The same
information is covered in a more long-winded fashion
in other books about selling.

Some books that are meant to be sold at seminars are
really fluffy stuff. This one isn't. It's practical
advice. It's organized in short chapters you can
read really fast.

"Schiffman has done it again. A great back to the basics book, this should be a must read for all salespeople--new and experienced."

This book offers great little tidbits of information about common sales mistakes. It has truly improved my closing ratio. This is a great book to pull out every once in awhile when you need a boost. Sometimes it is hard to break a habit and easy to slip into an old routine.

This is back to the basics, but these basics will make or break you as in sales. A very good guide to keep on your shelf to re-read yearly and to pass on to sales personnel who seem to be floundering.

Vitamin C is so important for health that the vast majority of animals manufacture it daily in their bodies. This is why animals can live outdoors even in the winter without getting colds or most other illnesses. Being healthy is important to animals because if an animal gets sick it usually becomes eaten by a healthy animal. Only a few animals -- principally humanes, monkeys, and apes -- cannot manufacture vitamin C. The inability to manufacture vitamin C confines monkeys and apes to live in or near the tropics, where the weather is warm and edible fruits and vegetation is very rich in vitamin C and thus can supply their need for this essential nutrient. Outside the tropics they would get sick and die or be killed. When monkeys and apes are removed from the tropics to live in zoos or as pets, they are routinely fed a diet very rich in vitamin C in order to keep them healthy.

Humans also originated in the tropics and cannot manufacture vitamin C but -- unlike monkeys and apes -- most humans eventually migrated away from the vitamin C rich tropics and spread all over the world to places in which the food supply contains much less vitamin C than is needed to maintain our health. Thus, unlike other animals, we humans routinely get sick with colds and other illnesses which adequate vitamin C would protect us against. Only the invention and use of clothing, shelter, and weapons make it possible for humans to survive the illnesses caused by inadequate vitamin C which we routinely get. Humans are the only animals which routinely get sick and yet generally survive our illnesses. But why should we live with periodic bouts of illness? Why not protect ourselves by taking supplemental vitamin C? This is the argument presented in this outstanding book by the greatest chemist of the 20th century, Dr. Linus Pauling, the only person ever to have been awarded two unshared Nobel Prizes. Please acquire and read this valuable book. If you follow Dr. Pauling's advice and take supplemental vitamin C daily, you will become healthier, may never have another cold, and should be able to survive the global flu pandemic which is predicted to occur soon.

This book is insightful but is not very well organized. Pauling jumps around from thought to thought in almost every chapter. The information is not outdated, but too many of his references are. So much so that it makes it unenjoyable to read. I wouldn't advise anyone purchase this book, here in the year 2000. I would go for one of his later books.

the author of this book is the father of the orthomolecular-medicine is revealing the vitamin c to the public attention,and explain the mechanism of how this vitamin is strenghening the immune system,while continuing of strenghening all of the other parts of the human organism.pauling is also talking about the comparison of vitamin c to conventional-drugs.pauling also explain in this book how the vitamin work in other diseases in the human body.the history of the discovery of the vitamin and the effect on scurvy is also explained in this very interesting book, and the findings of two other vitamin c pionneering researches like:irwin-stone, and albert szent gyorgy are also explained in this very educative-must book.
