11.		Shattered Lantern: Rediscovering a Felt Presence of God from Saint Anthony Messenger Press Customer Review: not since C.S. Lewis, has philosophy of religion met such high standards. Fr. Rolheiser may be Catholic, but his writing works for Protestants as well. I was surprised at the high quality of his thoughtfulness. Clearly Fr. Ron is a man of deep faith and intellect. I hope he continues to write.	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information

20.		High-Power Audio Amplifier Construction Manual from McGraw-Hill/TAB Electronics Price: $19.72 Customer Review: FIRST THE GOOD NEWS: In the first few chapters Slone has some good comments about many ideas promoted by high-end audiophile "subjectivists".
