Self-Reliance, by Ralph Waldo Emerson, 4 customer reviews, 5 stars
Publisher: The Domino Project; Unabridged edition (May 25, 2011)

From Amazon.com Review:
A Q&A with Ralph Waldo Emerson
"For nearly 200 years, Ralph Waldo Emerson's Self-Reliance has been the preeminent book on independence, non-conformity, and trusting oneself. At The Domino Project, we believe that Emerson's words are just as relevant today as they were in 1841..."

From Product Description: "Redefining the classic essay, this modern edition of Ralph Waldo Emerson’s most famous work, Self-Reliance, includes self-reflections from both historical and contemporary luminaries. With quotes from the likes of Henry Ford and Helen Keller to modern-day thought leaders like Jesse Dylan, Steve Pressfield, and Milton Glaser, we're reminded of the relevance of Emerson’s powerful words today. Emerson’s words are timeless"

Sleep, by Infinite Ideas
No customer reviews.
This is the first in a series of very short books or booklets with "techniques to help deal with all types of persistent sleep problems"

CAVEAT:The author modestly says the ideas are 'brilliant' and straightforward, and the little books in the series are about $1 each, which is one way of doing one book's worth of content under several titles, with prices that total about $6.
  Essentially, you can try one for no cost, if interested in this.


If looking for highly-rated e-books under $1, here's a listing of those with highly-rated Kindle books first.

NOTE: TO AVOID SPAM being posted instantly, this blog uses the blogger.com "DELAY" feature.

Am often away much of the day, and postings won't show up right away. Posts done to use referrer-links may never show up.

Usually, am online enough to release comments within a day though, so the hard-to-read match-text tests for commenting won't be needed this way.

Feedback and questions are welcome. Thanks for participating.

Technical Problems?
If you're having problems leaving a Comment, Google's blogger-help asks that you clear the 'blogger.com' cookies on your browser's Tools or Options menu bar and that will fix the Comment-box problems (until they have a permanent fix).

IF that doesn't work either, then UNcheck the "keep me signed in" box -- Google-help says that should allow your comment to post (it's a workaround to a current bug).
Apologies for the problems.

TIP: There's a size limit. If longer than 3500 characters or so, in a text editor, make two posts out of it.
