Diagnostic Imaging: Orthopaedics

For MSK MRI, this is an excellent reference book. The computer-designed illustrations are helpful and the bullet-point outline form works well for MSK (I'm not so sure about other specialties).

More Hilarity at "Mount Misery"

+ If you loved The House of God, this is a must read. OR, if you do not like the mental health field, READ THIS

"Mount Misery" was a facility to which unruly spouses and progeny might be constrained pending divorce or other life shaping proceedings. All too true, and, after all these years, I finally figured out that Schlomo was Freud's middle name.
