Drawing for the Artistically Undiscovered (Klutz)

by: Quentin Blake, John Cassidy

March 01, 1999
Quite possibly the best "how-to-draw" book ever written! Got me restarted on art after an absence of many years. And Quentin Blake is just a genius!
Don't be fooled into thinking this is a kid's book as I almost was. Kids can already draw like this, it's only adults who have forgotten how.
I buy this book as a gift for all my friends and they all love it.

Book of Knots (Klutz)

by: John Cassidy

August 01, 1985
What a brilliant book.

The diagrams are really clear and easy to follow, which is difficult to achieve and rarely done well with this sort of thing! It contains pages of thick card with holes placed to allow you to practice the knots - genius. Well designed and thought out, very practical throughout. Simple and colourful without being childish.

Dot.Con: The Real Story of Why the Internet Bubble Burst

by: John Cassidy

January 27, 2005
Though undoubtedly less damaging to my bank balance than the dodgy stocks I bought during the Internet boom, the hype and praise heaped on this book sucked me into yet another foolish investment. Bland, unoriginal and largely sourced from other people's clips and quotes, the book ends up reading like a Bloomberg market report in which the reporter hasn't even bothered to get his own soundbites. Nevermind the glaring typos, inaccurate statements like Margaret Thatcher's downfall was caused by a the ... Read More:

Juggling for the Complete Klutz

by: John Cassidy, B.C. Rimbeaux

October 18, 2002
I've been juggling on and off for many years.. and this is the book that got me started. In several short, easy lessons, this book should have you juggling (more or less), in under 15 minutes. It won't however tell you how to stop.

If this book is out of print, or not available on Amazon, it really is worth hunting down elsewhere. Get it from the States if you have to.

Comes complete with 3 juggling bean bags.
