| 161. Merck Veterinary Manual | |
|
by: Susan E. Aiello Amazon.com's Price: $37.00 Prices subject to change. Customer Reviews and Description The Merck Manual's new edition is a much needed update to previous editions. The book follows the same, easy to follow formal and includes sections on exotic animals that were not a part of previous editions. It is a very affordable although fairly comprehensive reference to general veterinary medicine. Some veterinary students have found this a very useful book for reviewing while studying for National Boards. The book's main flaw is that references are poorly cited, and ...

| 162. Stedman's Concise Medical Dictionary for the Health Professions: Illustrated (Book with CD-ROM) | |
|
by: Thomas Lathrop Stedman, John H. MD Dirckx Amazon.com's Price: $34.95 Prices subject to change. Customer Reviews and Description This concise medical dictionary is not concise at all: it gives all the information one needs, accompanied by very clear and informative drawings and pictures and it even gives the reader the correct pronunciation of the word. The alphabet tags on the side of the book (they give the first two letters of the words on that page rather than only the first letter) are a major help for a quick reference. I am "only" a biomedical scientist and not an M.D., but this book is very important in my daily ... Read More Read Reviews and Description

|
by: Samuel S. Thatcher M.D. Ph.D. List Price: $24.95 Amazon.com's Price: $16.97 You Save: $7.98 (32%) Prices subject to change. Customer Reviews and Description I don't even bother to look at the so-called fertility books in bookstores any more. None of them offer more than a mere mention of PCOS, even though PCOS is one of the leading causes of female infertility! I diagnosed myself using internet resources (like INCIID -- author Dr. Thatcher is an advisory board member for INCIID and writes frequently on PCOS). I bought this book, saw myself in its pages, and then was formally diagnosed in January 2002. This book offers the most comprehensive discussion of PCOS, ... Read More Read Reviews and Description

| 164. Saunders Comprehensive Review for NCLEX/RN | |
|
by: Linda Anne Silvestri, Linda A., Rn. Silvestri Amazon.com's Price: $38.95 Prices subject to change. Customer Reviews and Description I bought this book the second week of my first semester as a nursing student and have been using it religiously as a study guide for tests, information and quiz preparation. I am now in my second semester and I carry it with the rest of my textbooks to class and work. Each section of the text is devoted to a different system/disorder and the rationales, and tables of lab values are great. The CD contains questions with rationales for correct and incorrect answers and they seem to repeat themselves, when you have ... Read More Read Reviews and Description

by: Elizabeth G. Stewart, Paula Spencer List Price: $13.95 Amazon.com's Price: $11.16 You Save: $2.79 (20%) Prices subject to change. Customer Reviews and Description As a nurse practitioner who specializes in women's health, I was very excited to see this book. So many problems that I see in my daily practice are addressed in this book, along with very practical suggestions for preventing them. It should be required reading for every woman in her twenties to learn what to and not to do in terms of routine maintenance of her "private parts". This book also addresses common and uncommon concerns for women of all ages and stages of life. I have in the past referred patients to Dr. Stewart's ... Read More Read Reviews and Description

| 166. The Washington Manual of Medical Therapeutics (Washington Manual of Medical Therapeutics, 30th Ed) | |

by: Shubhada N. Ahya, Kellie Flood, Subramanian, Md. Paranjothi, Robyn A. Schaiff Amazon.com's Price: $39.95 Prices subject to change. Customer Reviews and Description Depending on your level of training, this may not be the manual for you. Having completed Internal Medicine training and becoming board certified, I have to say this is not "THE" book of need. It is adequate in its intended purpose for residency training. There are many others that will also be adequate...do your research, look them up. Read Reviews and Description

Customer Reviews and Description If you are encountering a person with an addictive personality for the first time in your life and find them perplexing and confusing to you, this book will shed insight as to why they act they way they do, what motivates them, and what causes them to become addictive. I was prompted to find out more about the addictive personality because of my future mother-in-law's behavior and attitude toward me. She has been an addictive personality for decades, using a multitude of different substances and events all at once. Though she is across ... Read More Read Reviews and Description

| 168. Langman's Medical Embryology with Simbryo CD-ROM, Ninth Edition | |
|
by: Thomas Sadler Amazon.com's Price: $52.95 Prices subject to change. Customer Reviews and Description This textbook, now in its 8th edition is a classic. It is extensive and rather than giving a simple step by step account of development (although this is provided in nice tables at the front of the book) it encompasses a more scientific explanation than is found in other embryology texts. It is fairly wordy, but it is easy to pick out relevent information and diagrams are excellent, being numerous, well labelled and easy to understand. This textbook, which is both easy to understand and extensive makes it an excellent buy both for a medical ... Read More Read Reviews and Description

| 169. Breaking Free : A Recovery Handbook for Facing Codependence | |
|
by: Pia Mellody, Andrea Wells Miller List Price: $18.00 Amazon.com's Price: $12.60 You Save: $5.40 (30%) Prices subject to change. Customer Reviews and Description This book takes the premise that it will root out and rid you of your denial. I am sure that is helpful, but it is very painful. I got this book because I was feeling overwhelmed with realizing how bad things had gotten in my life and was looking for help. I am more depressed than ever. This is not the place to go for hope. But, I think it is probably true that when you have stalled in your recovery or have reverted without realizing it, that it is because you have fallen into denial. And she is trying to lessen that. Probably overall key to ... Read More Read Reviews and Description
