Whether you are in the lab or the office, stay current in the ever-evolving field of electrophysiologywith Catheter Ablation of Cardiac Arrhythmias. Organized by type of arrhythmia, this simple yet comprehensive medical reference book provides detailed information on anatomy, diagnoses, mapping/ablation, and troubleshooting. The book also extensively covers the updated, basic concepts of transcatheter energy applications and currently available mapping/imaging tools for ablation.
Recognize the classic look of hematologic diseases and quickly confirm your diagnoses with Hematopathology: A Volume in the High Yield Pathology Series. A templated format, excellent color photographs, and authoritative content make this an ideal reference for busy pathologists.
Using for AP/CP board study. I like that there is space that I can use to take notes. I don’t like the organization of the book. It doesn’t really make sense to me, and it doesn’t follow Osler at all. There seem to be a few entities missing as well (cat scratch? really? you need at least one page on that to be a hemepath book!)
Gray’s Clinical Neuroanatomy focuses on how knowing functional neuroanatomy is essential for a solid neurologic background for patient care in neurology. Elliot Mancall, David Brock, Susan Standring and Alan Crossman present the authoritative guidance of Gray’s Anatomy along with 100 clinical cases to highlight the relevance of anatomical knowledge in this body area and illustrate the principles of localization.
Gray’s Clinical Neuroanatomy: The Anatomic Basis for Clinical Neuroscience is largely taken from the 39th edition of “Gray’s Anatomy: The Anatomical Basis of Clinical Practice”, edited by Susan Standring, though the text has been rearranged to support the organization of this book. One hundred case studies of neurological disorders, usually illustrated, have been added and are featured in purple boxes throughout the text. The subjects of neuroembryology and development have been expanded. But this is not a new book. Editors Elliott L. Mancall and David G. Brook offer an augmented version of the neuroanatomy text in “The Anatomical Basis of Clinical Practice”, with its copious, bright illustrations -not, it should be noted, the “Classic” edition of “Gray’s Anatomy” with the sketchy black and white illustrations that are difficult to make sense of. The text begins with basic topics in the first of seven sections, then moves on to “the systematized gross and microscopic anatomy of the central and peripheral nervous systems”: The Spine, The Brain Stem and Cranial Nerves, The Cerebellum, The Cerebrum, The Peripheral and Autonomic Nervous Systems, The Neuromuscular Junction and Muscle. There are a total of 23 chapters with references listed at the end of each. The book is large format, 12.25 x 9.5 inches, and the editors cram a lot of text and illustrations on those big pages. The text is in quite a small font. You may need either good light or glasses to read it comfortably. Few pages do not contain at least one illustration. A wonderful array of photographs, micrographs, color drawings, tables, MRIs, and CT scans illustrate the text. Drawings are clear and informative. Some talented artists lent their skills to this project. I believe this book is aimed at general practice physicians, who may want to have it on hand for reference or review, and at students of neuroscience. It is not detailed enough or clinical enough for a neurologist. It is comprehensible to an interested layperson, such as myself. The authors do not presuppose any particular knowledge of neuroanatomy or physiology, but a glossary of terms would have been useful -and probably not only for laypeople. There is an index. It is difficult to know how to rate a book like this one without having any similar text to compare it to. “Gray’s Clinical Neuroanatomy” is the only neuroanatomy text with this level of detail that I have. I have found it useful and fascinating, if dense. It is an excellent reference for libraries, and, though it is inadequate for neurologists, I expect everyone else with an interest in neuroscience will be pleased.

… Goldfrank’ s” remains the premier reference text in clinical toxicology, and all physicians involved in the management of poisoned patients would benefit from having it in their offices. So, when you need quick information on poisonings, use your pocket texts, PDAs, and the Web. When you want knowledge, dust off your shelf and pull down “Goldfrank’ s,””

It is approaching a century since the first edition of Demonstrations of Physical Signs in Clinical Surgery was first published, authored by the pioneering surgical teacher Hamilton Bailey. That it has survived is testimony to the continuing need for those learning surgery to be able to elicit physical signs in the patient and to understanding their meaning and significance.
Cardiovascular Pathology, Fourth Edition, provides users with a comprehensive overview that encompasses its examination, cardiac structure, both normal and physiologically altered, and a multitude of abnormalities. This updated edition offers current views on interventions, both medical and surgical, and the pathology related to them.
In the new edition of BIOLOGY: CONCEPTS AND APPLICATIONS, authors Cecie Starr, Christine A. Evers, and Lisa Starr have partnered with the National Geographic Society to develop a text designed to engage and inspire. This trendsetting text introduces the key concepts of biology to non-biology majors using clear explanations and unparalleled visuals. While mastering core concepts, each chapter challenges students to question what they read and apply the concepts learned, providing students with the critical thinking skills and science knowledge they need in life. Renowned for its writing style the new edition is enhanced with exclusive content from the National Geographic Society, including over 200 new photos and illustrations. New People Matter sections in most chapters profile National Geographic Explorers and Grantees who are making significant contributions in their field, showing students how concepts in the chapter are being applied in biological research. Each chapter concludes with an ‘Application’ section highlighting real-world uses of biology and helping students make connections to chapter content.
