CRC, 2007

Excellent overview
I am an investment analyst and used this book to get up to speed on an unfamiliar industry. I found it to be clear, well organized, and containing all the info I needed to understand the dynamics driving the business and the lingo. There was more engineering and scientific info than I needed for my purposes, but it was useful to thumb through those chapters to get a high level understanding of ...

CRC, 2005

Great Introduction to Forensic Science
As a graduate student in Forensic Anthropology I found this book to include nearly all of the information I needed in my undergraduate classes. If I had only had this book before I could have saved a lot of money with all of the other books I have purchased. Not only does it provide information on all the important topics in forensic science there are also several illustrations and photographs to ...

Fellow sufferer and overcomer with God's help
Each case of Guillain-Barre Syndrome is different---for the patient, for the doctors, and for the caregivers. WE ARE ALL COURAGEOUS in that we have fought very hard for the chance to just LIVE and hopefully to obtain as much percentage of recovery as we can. I was diagnosed correctly on the 10th day of onset. By that time, I was paralyzed from the neck down. Treatment consisted of IVIG and ...

Defining Architecting
Review: This is a great overview of the subject of systems architecture. It is already highly regarded in the systems engineering community. It is rich in useful detail. It gives a comprehensive historical view of the discipline. I found a large number of specific insights about the nature of architecture as opposed to engineering. The collection of over 180 heuristics is an interesting framework ...

CRC Handbook of Chemistry and Physics, 88th Edition (Crc Handbook of Chemistry and Physics)

3 reviews

CRC, 2007

A real review for the CRC Handbook
While the first reviewer is correct concerning the Handbook's comprehensive and encyclopedic nature, I doubt it would make for a comfortable pillow. The Chemical Rubber Company issues its 88th edition of authoritative listings of Fundamental Physical Constants and other scientific data necessary for university and professional research. The Handbook is broken up into 16 Sections followed by ...

Vernon J. Geberth

CRC, 2006

A Morbid Classic!
Talk about a disturbing book. This one will probably give you nightmares if you haven't desensitized yourself to violence yet. If your denial mechanism is in disrepair, you'd probably be best to avoid this book which is the "Bible" of crime scene investigation techniques. Extremely graphic photographs of murder and suicide victims along with a compelling forensic text with such chapters as 'The ...
