Excellent General Chest Text for Radiology/Med. Residents.
Very well written text which is easy to read. Many useful mnemonics. Images are very good. This is a must have for all radiology residents.

Excellent
As a Physician Assistant I have seen several books on reading x-rays. Most are either too complex or too basic. This is the best. It is easy to read but complete enough to cover most x-rays used in practice today.

Springer, 2005

Very Informative
As a thyroid cancer patient, on a mission to educate myself, I find this book extremely helpful.

I hear what the doctors are saying, but with this book I learn how to respect thyroid cancer. It can help to empower me to better take care of myself, and give me further ...

Excellent for Physicist
We recently purchased this book and I find it extremely well written and useful. I would call it super for a physicist doing medical imaging research. The book reads like a reference text for a researcher. There are no cartoons or homework problems. The second edition is very up to date. The book could use some references to advanced information sources as it is a bit short on physics/mathematics ...

History: Fiction or Science? (Chronology, No. 1)

43 reviews
Anatoly Fomenko

Mithec, 2004

Pants on fire?
Will people ever read before spamming? Yes, Jesuits could not rewrite world history alone, they had help. Anyway, Dr Prof Acad A.Fomenko does not point to jesuits as the driving force of world wide history manipulation in published volumes 1,2,3;, actually he barely mentions the poor devils. Check it with 'Search inside' feature, please. China is rarely mentioned either, in fact, Dr Fomenko is ...

Wiley-Blackwell, 2006

This is the touchstone by which all other nuclear medicine physics books should be compared *****
This user friendly book is a delight to read and easy to understand. I am a Cardiologist with not much physics background and I was able to understand the principles of this book written by superb authors. I recently attended the American Society of Nuclear Cardiology's Board Review Course and most of their illustrations of the principles of Nuclear Medicine Physics were directly Xeroxed from ...

Essentials of Radiation, Biology and Protection, Second Edition

2 reviews
Steve Forshier

Delmar Cengage Learning, 2008

A Text Book That Cannot Stand on its Own
Very simple and to the point. If in the diagnostic radiology field (student or not), worth adding to library. But why the four star, you may ask? It is expensive and has no fundamental/introductory information on ionizing radiation and as a result makes the book "a text book that cannot stand on its own"

The Mystery of the Missing Antimatter (Science Essentials)

3 reviews
Helen R. Quinn, Yossi Nir

Princeton University Press, 2007

Not "yet another popular science book"
Though I am a particle physicist in my profession I might have read dozens of popular books on this subject and related subjects. The one thing that is very clear when reading this book is that there is no attempt to hide anything behind the carpet. Nir and Quinn challenge themselves by trying to explain very difficult terms like "matter fields","energy functions" and "vacuum energy" without over ...
