Musculoskeletal MRI8 reviews
Clyde A. Helms, Nancy M. Major, ...

Saunders, 2008

Great MSK MRI book
This is an excellent book for the following reasons: -Size of text. This is the perfect size for an introductory text for a resident rotation. Small enough to throw in your backpack. -Cost. On par with the Requisite series. -Concise presentation. The text is easily readable for someone who has experience with plain film MSK, and takes time to explain the relevant anatomy when it's important.It ...

Basketball for Women: Becoming a Complete Player6 reviews
Nancy Lieberman-Cline, Robin Roberts, ...

Human Kinetics Publishers, 1995

A Must for Coaches of Girls Basketball
When I started coaching girls basketball (3rd-9th graders) 3 years ago this was the second book I picked up. Now I have about 35 books and 20 videos but I use this as the central reference for my playbook and training manual in coaching fundamentals. Some of the skills may be too advanced for younger kids but they will grow up and adapt to it when they return to you a little older and better ...
  
  











  



  
The Year's Best Fantasy and Horror: Fifth Annual Collection10 reviews

St. Martin's, 1992

An outstanding entry in an excellent series
I am working my way back through all of the Datlow/Windling annuals, and although I love all of them, this collection is definitely outshines some of its colleagues (such as the third edition, which is the least thrilling of the ones I have read so far). Many of the stories will cling to your memory, and the scope of genres is commendable. The editors have found works form many different ...

Who Was Albert Einstein? GB (Who Was...?)6 reviews
Jess Brallier

Grosset & Dunlap, 2002

Full of Information!
I thought Who Was Albert Einstein? was a great book. Hats off to Jess Brallier! I have read this book two or three times, which is rare for me, since I do not like to re-read things, so that must tell you how good this book is! I learned a lot of things like he was born on March 14, 1879, he had two wives, he wasn't the best father (in his own words), his brain is floating around in a jar today, ...

A GREAT SAM ANTHA BOOK!!!

She meets up with her friend Nellie O'Malley, and learns that Nellie's employer, Mrs. Van Sicklen, is letting Nellie and her sisters, Bridget and Jenny, go to the ...

Eric Carle Museum of Picture Book Art

Philomel, 2007

excellent book for all ages
I purchased this book for my 18 year old daughter, who is off to college next year to major in art. Her ambition is to be an illustrator, so I thought it would be inspirational for her. She loves that it features the illustrators of many of her favorite books from when she was small. A great book for anyone who enjoys illustration and picture books.

Cheltenham Press, 2000

Coping In New Territory, A Handbook for Children of Aging Pa
This book saved my family. I read it, then got copies for my four siblings. When we came home to meet with my parents, we were all in agreement about how to support them, but keep them safe. Every chapter talked to us. It was as though Suzanne had been one of our family describing what we had all experienced. Thank heaven for this book. Our parents are accepting in home care and we can ...
  
  











  



  
Robert Rauschenberg : A Retrospective4 reviews
Robert Rauschenberg, Susan Davidson, ...

Harry N. Abrams, 1997

Wonderful, though more text than I wanted
I was very pleased by the large number of high-quality reproductions. Still, as far as I'm concerned there should have been *more*. The book contains (a rough count) about 280 pages containing text or mostly text, out of about 630 total pages. However, I'm very happy with the book.

Dr. Kushner's Personality Type Diet5 reviews
Robert Kushner, Nancy Kushner, 2003

This is a great book!
I think I've read every diet book ever written. They're all the same. You follow a specific plan for a while, you lose weight and then as time goes by, you drift back to your old habits and gain it back. This book focuses your weight loss on whatever habits caused you to gain weight in the first place. It's more personalized than any other diet book I've ever picked up. And it works. I'm losing ...
