French for Dummies - Dodi-Katrin Schmidt, Michelle M. Williams, Dominique Wenzel
If you buy into the Pepé Le Pew stereotype of the French – arrogant, stuffy, overly amorous, and rather odiferous (Pepé Le Pew was a skunk. Talk about stereotypical!) – then think again. Not only are the French people some of the most relaxed, pleasant people you'll ever meet, but their society is one of the oldest, most culturally rich societies in the world. So it's no surprise that French is known as perhaps the most beautiful of all languages. Listen to someone speak French – sure, you don't have a clue what she's saying, but aren't you enraptured by the sound of it?

Fields of Reading: Motives for Writing, Seventh Edition - Nancy R. Comley, David Hamilton, Carl H. Klaus
I had to purchase this book for my english course, but after only two weeks of reading and discussion I feel such an empowerment by the selections. I wouldn't be able to choose a favorite author because each one is represented so uniquely by their stories. After my class is over, I look forward to sitting down and reading those that were not assigned and re-reading those icons of society that were picked by my professor. If you want a short introduction to various famous authors then this is definitely a book you will enjoy!

Foundations of Statistical Natural Language Processing - Christopher D. Manning, Hinrich Schütze
Statistical approaches to processing natural language text have become dominant in recent years. This foundational text is the first comprehensive introduction to statistical natural language processing (NLP) to appear.

The book covers collocation finding, word sense disambiguation, probabilistic parsing, information retrieval, and other applications.

French for Reading - Karl C. Sandberg
A beautifully structured book for teaching yourself to read French (not to write or speak French). It's expensive and in need of updating, but it's great anyway. I needed to prepare for a translation exam required by my doctoral program, with a background of a year of French in the seventh grade and enough Spanish and Latin to have a feel for Romance languages. I used this book, making vocabulary flash cards along the way, and I passed my exam.

First Spanish Reader - Angel Flores
