1.		The Black Swan: The Impact of the Highly Improbable from Penguin Price: £5.29 Customer Review: Reading these reviews leads me immediately to the realisation that this work may possibly be little better than plagiarism. Siméon-Denis Poisson first examined the statistical modelling of low-probability events in 1838, within a much wider corpus of scientific research in pure and applied... more info	Customer Rating: 3.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information

2.		The Digital Photography Book from Peachpit Press Price: £6.99 Customer Review: This is the best photography book I have ever purchased. Self contained pages telling you how to get the shot. No nonsense, no complications, no need to understand intricate instructions. A word of caution. It has cost me a fortune! Because all of Scott's suggestions about how... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information

3.		Wildlife Photographer of the Year: Portfolio 18 (Wildlife Photographer of the Year) from BBC Books Price: £15.00 Customer Review: This is the second volume I've reviewed in the now very well established, BBC wildlife photographer of the year competition. Portfolio 15 was the first one I bought and because of the amazing pictures I've continued to buy it each year, however I did not review 16 or 17 because there was little else... more info	Customer Rating: 5.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information

4.		How to Catch a Star from HarperCollins Children's Books Price: £2.99 Customer Review: There's something very soothing and calming about this book, which makes it perfect for bedtime. The story is simple, the illustrations are beautiful, and we all feel good when we read it. My two-year-old son absolutely loves it, and I do too.

5.		Shakespeare: The World as a Stage (Eminent Lives) from HarperPerennial Price: £3.99 Customer Review: I really enjoyed this book. It was a quick and easy read, admittedly, but it does not bill itself as a Shakepeare textbook or biography and would be a different animal if it was. If you take it at face value, it's a fun read, helped along by Bryson's amusing style.	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information

6.		The Study Skills Handbook from Palgrave Macmillan Price: £7.14 Customer Review: I am a mature student and was advised to buy this when I started my Access to HE course many years ago. I dutifully went and bought it alongside The Good Study Guide by Andrew Northedge and I have to say that this book is worth its weight in gold compared to the book by Northedge. This is not a... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information

7.		Professor Stewart's Cabinet of Mathematical Curiosities from Profile Books Ltd Price: £5.49 Customer Review: this book admittedly is not laid out in an obviously systematic way but i m not sure that matters. it got me interested in some things that i thought were rather boring, and on the whole though i haven t read it all through yet it does seem to the makings of a very good read, though inevitably some... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information

8.		The Digital Photography Book Volume 2: The Step-by-Step Secrets for How to Make Your Photos Look Like the Pros! (Digital Photography) from Peachpit Press Price: £6.99 Customer Review: I've been a wedding photographer for 25 years. I thought this was going to be another "how to take photos book". I've liked other Scott Kelby books so whilst in a bookstore picked it up just for a quick glance, but was suprised to see how much detail he went into. Each page being a new subject, it... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information

10.		The Photographer's Eye: Composition and Design for Better Digital Photos from Ilex Price: £11.69 Customer Review: This is brilliant book on design and composition taking the reader on a tour through graphic elements, colour, contrasts etc. A lot of photography, but independent of technology: It's not the camera that takes the photo, it's the photographer. And this book introduces the reader to all the... more info	Customer Rating: 5.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information
