.Stop Walking on Eggshells: Taking Your Life Back When Someone You Care about Has Borderline Personality Disorder
City Travel Guides > Books > Medicine
by: Paul T. Mason, Randi Kreger

1998-07
Stop Walking on Eggshells: Taking Your Life Back When Someone You Care about Has Borderline Personality DisorderThis is the most important and valuable book for parents and friends of borderline personality disorder victims. BPD is an obscene illness that defies logic and common sense. The authors do a superb job of introducing the reader to the illness, walking through its components and syndromes, and establishing effective strategies to deal with the disease. If you follow the advice, you will no longer be a co-dependent, lashed to the bizarre behavior of the victim, responding inappropriately and dangerously. You will get your life back and actually help the victim by breaking unhealthy bonds and establishing necessary tough boundaries. ... Read More:

.Pain Free: A Revolutionary Method for Stopping Chronic Pain
City Travel Guides > Books > Medicine
by: Pete Egoscue

February 29, 2000
I saw the author on the Today show many years ago when I was suffering from a cervical compression (neck and shoulder) and had had 6 months of physical therapy but still had pain. His recommended exercises cleared the problem up in less than a month.

I have given away 5 copies of this book and have recommended it every time that someone tells me they are in pain.

.Driven To Distraction : Recognizing and Coping with Attention Deficit Disorder from Childhood Through Adulthood
City Travel Guides > Books > Medicine
by: Edward M. Hallowell, John J. Ratey

Cd was very informative. Much easier to put in cd and listen than reading for hours. It covers all basic points of ADD. The fast overview should answer most question that a layman would have.

.The Out-of-Sync Child: Recognizing and Coping with Sensory Processing Disorder, Revised Edition
City Travel Guides > Books > Medicine
by: Carol Stock Kranowitz

April 04, 2006
When you finally have a resource in your hands that shows a mirror to the child you're trying to help...well, you know what a great feeling that can be. While I could re-read many sections so that I could better understand the deficiencies my child's nervous system has, I came away from this book knowing that I finally have a handbook on his problems. It's a very comprehensive collection of both explanation and resources. I'm telling my whole family to read it.

.Maxwell Quick Medical Reference (Maxwell, Quick Medical Reference Maxwell, Quick Medical Refe)

May 15, 2006
a tiny little aid during rounds and rotations. it is perfectly color coordinated by categories, really easy to read and follow with the basic info on many subjects. i found the part on writing everyday patient notes extremely helpful since i tend to forget a few things.
i decided to laminate the pages so that it can outlast stains and possible spills. wonderful purchase :)

.First Aid for the USMLE Step 1: 2008 (First Aid for the Usmle Step 1)

I am actually going to medical school soon and I decided to begin outlining what I need to do the ace the Step 1. This is not a book to simply skim or page through. Every piece of information in this book (sans the intro) seems to be a requirement for the Step 1. I think it would be an excellent foundation to build on.

Even though I am not in school yet, I found the text quite accessible and relatively easy to understand.

.The Elements of Style, Fourth Edition

by: William Strunk Jr., E. B. White

The book is great, I mean it's a classic but this version looks like it came right off the photo copier of the original print for 100 years ago. It's horribly fussy and the copy spacing is poor. I suggest finding a version by a different publisher.
