Great Reference Book
Very easy to use, concise advice on the most common fractures. Not a definitive ortho text, but does exactly what the title indicates. Worth the price for anyone in primary care or urgent care environments.

Saunders Comprehensive Review for Nclex-Rn (Saunders Comprehensive Review for NCLEX-RN)108 reviews
W.B. Saunders Company, 1999
I Just Passed My NCLEX Using This Book!!
I passed my NCLEX using this one fantastic book. It is comprehensive in detail and leaves nothing out. The questions at the end of each chapter are as close to those on the board as you can get. The included disk has thousands of questions and various testing and quiz options. After practicing with the "test" mode on the disk I found taking the actual boards easy to handle. If you want to pass ...

Ferrets, Rabbits, and Rodents: Clinical Medicine and Surgery12 reviews
W.B. Saunders Company, 1997
THE BEST book on this subject
This book is the absolute best resource on the medicine of these species. The book is easy to follow and find specific information as necessary. Most illustrations are quite useful, although in black and white. The book is organized mostly by taxonomic groups. However, the book seems to repeat itself in some chapters as well as in different chapters, and sometimes, finding information may be ...

The Language of Medicine: A Write-In Text Explaining Medical Terms21 reviews
Davi-Ellen Chabner
W.B. Saunders Company, 2003
Make easy Medicine
This book is really a great book. It makes figuring out and understanding medical terms a breeze. The exercises are incredibly easy because they are using the rote method. I think the author is using the rote method because it's pretty effective. The terms are clearly explained. The book is easy to follow and the CD that comes with it also uses rote. It might seem mindless, but after doing ...

Medical Terminology: A Short Course8 reviews
Davi-Ellen Chabner

Very informative and easy to follow.
I purchased this book to refresh my knowledge. I had enrolled in college and wanted to test out of their Medical Terminology course. I had taken Anatomy & Physiology in the past and had worked as a medical secretary in a hospital so I was looking to feel more confident with my word knowledge. This book was easy to follow and was very helpful. It has a lot of diagrams and pictures to give ...

Orthopedic Physical Assessment8 reviews
David J. Magee
W.B. Saunders Company, 1997
Great contribution to medical education, poor photographs
I bought this textbook together with Ferri's Clinical advisor with great enthusiasm. Though this book has fewer contributors, it offers enormous amount of information on physical assessment. Other than the reference pages at the end of each chapter, you cannot spot a single page that does not have a drawing, a photograph, charts, tables, or tips. You cannot resist but feel great appreciation to ...

Brain, Bailliere
W.B. Saunders Company, 1987
Buy this book!
I absolutely hate peripheral nerve disorders. That's probably because I'm not good at diagnosing them. But, if I had this book at the start of my training, perhaps things would be different. This book is an absolute gem. It has great illustrations and has complete listings of movements, muscles, nerves, and roots. It has diagrams of the plexuses as well. There is a handy table in the back ...

Bove and Davis' Diving Medicine7 reviews
W.B. Saunders Company, 1997
God's Gift to Diving Medicine
After perusing the textbooks of diving medicine, this continues to be a gold standard in the literature. Readers should note it does not compete with the 2003 Bennett and Elliott's Physiology and Medicine of Diving. B&E is more a physiology of normal persons while diving and is geared to being as factually driven as possible. Bove focuses on medical issues and the physiology that makes it ...

Braunwald's Heart Disease: A Textbook Of Cardiovascular Medicine9 reviews
W.B. Saunders Company, 2004
A HARD-TO-FLAW MASTERPIECE
Anyone familiar with Dr. Braunwald's superb cardiovascular exploits in the "Harrison's Principles of Internal Medicine" would not be surprised by the richness of this book. The diligently crafted chapters are comprehensive, authoritative, well-illustrated, and include all the 'ins' and 'outs' of contemporary cardiology. It is one of the most consistent and coherent multi-authored texts in the ...
