.Theory and Practice of Group Psychotherapy, Fifth Edition
City Travel Guides > Books > Medicine
by: Irvin D. Yalom, Molyn Leszcz

July 05, 2005
It's been a month... where is my book? I don't know, I haven't gotten it yet. I've gotten the other book I bought in the same order, a used book. I have yet to see the new book. This is very disappointing. It's hard to wait for a book and get further and further behind in my studies. I should have gone to a different site.

.Clinically Oriented Anatomy (5th Edition)
City Travel Guides > Books > Medicine
by: Keith L Moore, Arthur F Dalley

May 01, 2005
Here is the low down. This book is not a book that you can even consider reading through! It is, however, one of the best references that you can buy. I felt like the text was clear and detailed on every anatomical part that I wanted to know about. In medical school, there were times that I needed to reference something because I didn't understand. This book did a great job of filling that roll. It is comforting to know that I have this one on my shelf, and I am still referencing it. The pictures are clear and informative, but it is a text. It is not an Atlas or a review. It will explain things to you in words with a few picutres to supplement. In hindsight, however, it wasn't necessary. It is nice to have, but you can do without ...

.The Night of the Gun: A Reporter Investigates the Darkest Story of his Life--His Own
City Travel Guides > Books > Medicine
by: David Carr

August 05, 2008
I think this story is a good one about addiction. It doesn't tell all the seedy stuff that could have happened but it shows the life of an addict who is a pretty good guy with a pretty bad addiction. David Carr seems to have really looked at himself so that he could see himself as progressing towards recovery. I'm not sure he is completely recovered if you can ever be. David was able to stay above the fray to some extent. I think I liked the simple story, the honesty and the availability of the writer. He writes a simple, difficult but interesting story.

This is actually a great book for pharmacy students and pharmacists alike. It is much more understandable than Goodman and Gilman.

.Color Atlas of Anatomy: A Photographic Study of the Human Body (Color Atlas of Anatomy (Rohen))
City Travel Guides > Books > Medicine
by: Johannes W Rohen, Chihiro Yokochi, Elke Lütjen-Drecoll

April 01, 2006
This book is absolutely amazing and I highly recommend it for any anatomy student with lab practicals. Rather than having to find a partner, drive to the school, and sit in the lab with a bone box, I was able to study by myself in my own living room. I would not be without it!

.Your Pregnancy Week by Week, 6th Edition (Your Pregnancy Series)
City Travel Guides > Books > Medicine
by: Glade B. Curtis, Judith Schuler

December 03, 2007
This book is helpful when refering to the babies development but does not have a holistic approach to the birthing process, family planning options and child birth and infant care. The good information found in this resource can be found on numerous websites and in many other books that are much better than this. I recommend reading Penny Simkin's Pregnancy Childbirth and the Newborn.

.Betty Crocker's Diabetes Cookbook: Everyday Meals, Easy as 1-2-3

Good book but not great. Very limited and not all that exciting. Better off modifying your own stuff.

.The Washington Manual of Medical Therapeutics, 32nd edition (Spiral Manual Series)
City Travel Guides > Books > Medicine
by: Washington University School of Medicine, Daniel H Cooper, Andrew J Krainik, Sam J Lubner, Hilary EL Reno

March 01, 2007
The Washington Manual is like a mini-DiPiro's. It is especially great because it is small enough to be carried in a backpack without the extra weight. The material inside is not too general yet not too overwhelming. Being a pharmacist that have been out of school for a few years, it is a great review of disease states. The book covers the pathophysiology and pharmacotherapy for each disease state.

.Autism's False Prophets: Bad Science, Risky Medicine, and the Search for a Cure
City Travel Guides > Books > Medicine
by: Paul A. Offit

September 05, 2008
I encountered Dr. Offit on Sirius Doctor Radio and heard about this book there. This book clears up all the falsehoods and bad PR about vaccines and it's a fast and interesting read. I only wish that I had this book when my children were infants and receiving their vaccines as it would have removed any lingering doubts that were floating around in my head at that time. Any parent expecting their first child or with young children should read this book and you too will realize that vaccines are not controversial with regard to autism. The studies have delivered consistent and definitive results that MMR and thimerosol do not cause autism. If only Dr. Offit could get as much coverage as Jenny McCarthy, many more people would be enlightened.
