.Change Your Brain, Change Your Life: The Breakthrough Program for Conquering Anxiety, Depression, Obsessiveness, Anger, and Impulsiveness
City Travel Guides > Books > Medicine
by: Daniel G. Amen

December 31, 1999
While it's true that no one has put such information into printed form for the layman before, everyone should realize up front that brain function is still largely a blank area in our map of the body.
Five centuries ago maps were made with a convention designed to discourage travel into areas that had not been mapped (very cautious, those cartographers). It usually went something like this; the cartographer would engrave "Here there be Tygers" or a warning in words of like meaning into the center of the blank area on the map plate before it was printed. A similar warning should be emblazoned across the cover of Dr. Amen's book.
Nothing in the book is misleading, as far as I can tell (not being a neurologist, but a safety engineer), ... Read More:

.You Can Heal Your Life (Gift Edition)
City Travel Guides > Books > Medicine
by: Louise Hay

1999-09
I think Louise Hay has the right idea but the wrong message.
The 1st chapter titled 'What i believe' is just Louise noting her personal opinions which some readers may disagree with, i know i did and so did a couple of other people who read this book. I for one do not agree with a couple of her beliefs especially the belief about that fact that we chose our parents, no one chooses abusive parents. I'm shocked that Louise who has experienced abuse in her life would put such a damaging statement in her book.To say that we manifest everything in our lives with the thoughts we think is ridiculous. Yes we do choose our cheating partners and disloyal friends and rubbish boring jobs and sometimes we see the signs or we hate our jobs and complain complain ... Read More:

City Travel Guides > Books > Medicine
by: T. Colin Campbell, Thomas M. Campbell II

This book is a refreshing change from the glut of fad diet books. It is very readable, yet takes a serious and scientific look at what we eat and the resulting health problems. The core of the book is about a 20 year study, in China, sponsored by NIH and the governement of China. Be prepared to have a paradigm shift in your concepts of healthy eating.

This book is one textbook that will stay with me throughout my coursework. It is very helpful in understanding mental issues and how to decide proper diagnosis. It is well written and easy to navigate. I definitely recommend also getting DSM made easy with this book as the case examples really are helpful.

.Maxwell Quick Medical Reference (Maxwell, Quick Medical Reference Maxwell, Quick Medical Refe)
City Travel Guides > Books > Medicine
by: Robert W. Maxwell

May 15, 2006
First off, this "book" is really tiny--11 pages that resemble someone's 3x5 note cards. The print is tiny, and aside from the laminated cover, the pages don't seem durable or well-printed. After reading the all the rave reviews, I was very disappointed when I received this. This thing is not worth the price and could be easily replaced by a dozen self-made notecards stapled together.

This is by far the worst medical "book" that I've ever purchased.

.Codependent No More: How to Stop Controlling Others and Start Caring for Yourself
City Travel Guides > Books > Medicine
by: Melody Beattie

September 01, 1992
After 26 years of marriage, I recently found myself living with an alcoholic-and it is a FAMILY disease. This book clearly outlines how codependency manifestes itself in your life. This book not only describes symptoms but prescribes solutions and is the best read on the subject. If you need clarity, focus and are ready for recovery...start here!
