Beware of superbookdeals seller
If you want to buy the book, go ahead, just be careful of superbookdeals, they take your money but don't deliver and don't answer emails. Caveat Emptor.

An Amazing Stock Tool

Sci-Fi short stories at their best
This series sets a high standard for science fiction short story writing and this collection is no exception. You will find a variety of styles and approaches in these stories and I find them a great way to discover writers I have never heard of.

Not up to standard
This volume is not up to the standards set by previous collections in the series.It contains far too many stories that are mediocre or worse.If 2003 just wasn't a very good year for S-F, Dozois made a mistake in including "more than 300,000 words of fantastic fiction."

An excellent collection, as always.
I'm not sure I would classify every story in this collection as "the best" of the year, but that's in no way intended as a slight against what is contained in this collection. The book contains a large and varied collection of science fiction stories, each unique and varied in both scope and style. There were no stories in this perennially excellent book, but there were some particular standouts for me.

great book
I am very pleased with the book as it covers most of the brands with a realisic price list that you can relate to when buying a watch. the problem arises from the fact that it relates to 2004 watches and it is called 2005,so if you are buying a new watch you will not know the price until it is too late.

The Best is the Best
Arranged in 26 chapters, A-Z, Joe Kraynak's 424-page Best of the Internet, 2005 Edition, is a directory thousands of websites.The book lists the "best" websites for topics from Abortion to Zoo.In between are categories like Dinosaurs, Education, Finance, Health, Jobs, Pets, Track and Field, and War - far too many to list them all in a review.Alphabetical margin tabs ease finding the desired section, and a detailed index, with cross references, facilitates finding topics and sites.Kraynak provides a brief, clear, informative description of each site.
A book I find very helpful
While the Google search engine is very effective in searching for material on the Internet, the order of the responses is sometimes questionable and why some responses are included will always puzzle you. Furthermore, in a world where not everyone is honest, some sites are not exactly what their keywords claim to be. Finally, it is also difficult to determine whether a site is appropriate for children to visit. We have all been suckered into visiting a porn site that appeared to be something quite different.

Better than Inconvenient Truth, A Tremendous Contribution
The ideal combination for anyone seeking to understand what Al Gore calls "Inconvenient Truth" is the video by Gore and this book.I would supplement that with J. F. Richard's "HIGH NOON" and E. O. Wilson's "The Future of Life."

Almanac Review
This is a well-organized reference that I use every day.I have purchased one of these annually for a lot of years.The ONLY bad thing is that they never have figured out a way to keep the colored pages with the maps from falling out after a little while.Even if you baby those pages, they are doomed.

Likley the very best
I found the 2006 Almanac excellent and full of information. It is a must for the office desk ... Read more

Read it all day!
Although it's not long enough for you to be able to read it all day, you will find yourself unable to set it down and just keep on turning the pages. Guiness world records:2005 is packed to the cover with intriguing facts from every corner of the globe. Buy it and you'll be quizing your family about the longest nails or the biggest ball of yarn.
