In a book that is "a must for anyone who has loved a motorcycle" (Oliver Sacks), Melissa Pierson captures in vivid, writerly prose the mysterious attractions of motorcycling. She sifts through myth and hyperbole: misrepresentations about danger, about the type of people who ride and why they do so. The Perfect Vehicle is not a mere recitation of facts, nor is it a polemic or apologia. Its vivid historical accounts-the beginnings of the machine, the often hidden tradition of women who ride, the tale of the defiant ones who taunt death on the racetrack-are intertwined with Pierson's own story, which, in itself, shows that although you may think you know what kind of person rides a motorcycle, you probably don't.Binding Type: Paperback

Missing answers to even number questions
Format: Hardcover
Great info but there are no answers for the even number questions. Only for the odd numbers. I would like to all answers to questions.

The Only Resource You'll Need to Pass the RHIA
Format: Hardcover
What did I like?
This textbook is fully comprehensive of all that you'll need in order to take and pass the RHIA examination. I lost my credentials when I didn't renew my professional dues and needed to take it again after 26 years. Granted I have experience in the field, but this book covered it all.
What did I use this for?
I used this text to prepare for my RHIA exam administered by AHIMA.

Excellent
Excellent reflections on the most important subject. This book provides and intermediate Christology. It brings the Biblical text and conciliar theology to help illuminate current discussions and debates on the person and work of Christ. Highly recommended.

Exactly what my sink needed!!
Color: Black, Color: Black
Okay, this thing turned out to be way more useful than I expected. It’s big enough to actually hold everything — sponge, scrub brush, even the soap dispenser — without looking cluttered or crammed together. Plus everything dries faster, so my sink area finally doesn’t look like a wet chaotic mess all the time. 😅
The quality is really solid too. Feels sturdy, doesn’t rust, and was super easy to install. It stays put and keeps water from collecting around the sink, which honestly makes cleanup so much easier.
Such a simple little product, but it really does make the kitchen look cleaner and more organized. Definitely recommend.
