This profusely illustrated text will give residents in radiology the basic anatomy needed to form a solid foundation for a complete radiologist.It however does not contain tables for easy reading and review.
The pictures are explicit and help to further reinforce understanding of the text.

A very well organised and profusely illustrated text which provides information on anatomy as related to and conventional radiology and more sophisticated radiological forms of investigation like the magnetic resonance imaging. First year residents would find the book useful as it provide the basic anatomic knowledge needed in making diagnosis. This book is a must for radiologists!

Excellent book on an engrossing man.

In the Appendix, the book's dramatic rendition in English of Mallarme's Herodiade is performable as a stage play, just as entertaining and not as lengthy as Wilde's French play Salome.
Performance values include a colorful cosmic exhibition of
special effects (lights) evoking the beginning of the universe
with an incantatory speech by a mature woman (Dawn), an intimate
scene in which the virgin speaks to her confidante of her fearful yet passionate attraction to her father's rival, and the climactic Apollo-like appearance of John the Baptist's radiantly illuminated disembodied head singing as a symbol of masculine love.

He was a real prize!

Ruben Crosscutt was not your typical butler, a proper old gent in black tails. The awesome Aussie arrived sporting athletic shorts and a t-shirt. Blue-eyed, virile, tanned- he was no sexless , wooden servant...

Which came as a shock to divorcee Blaire Thomlin, who'd won Ruben's services in a contest for two whole weeks!

Having a man around the house again was daunting. But Ruben cooked, cleaned and catered to Blaire's every desire... including a few not in his description. He turned Blaire's life around and made her start to believe in love once more. Until the ugly rumors about his past surfaced.....

This is a very sweet romance with an unconventional hero, but I think any romance fan would enjoy it.

Mac Butler was a citizen soldier, an ordinary guy who was called to active duty. He served in the tradition of his forebearers, including General John "Mac" Alexander McClernand who was commissioned by President Abraham Lincoln. He served and inspired his men, and this book tells the story ably and humbly. That their unit was the only one not to give ground during the Battle of the Bulge is ample testimony of Col. Butler's leadership. (The book reports that at times enemy artillary came in from nearly all points of the compass.)

In my opinion this book describes in vivid detail why our citizen-soldiers won the war against the professional soldiers of Germany. This is a great read for an up-close perspective on one ordinary man's willingness to give all for his men and his country.

In reunions after the war, the men showed their continued loyalty and respect for Mac when they presented him with a plaque commemorating the "Battlin' Blue Bastards."

The book has a good story to tell..about a unit that won the Presidential Unit Citation for its activities during the Battle of the Bulge. He makes extensive use of quotes from individuals from the unit but within the official historical view of the activities of this battalion...good read!!!

Where was this book when I was growing up? It is a must read for
people mapping out their career goals and planning where they
would like to be five, ten, or twenty years from now.

Although I'm from an earlier generation and have accomplished
certain career goals, I'm still in the work force, thus I can
still learn from this book. What registers with me is that it
gives great insight into utilizing tools that can keep you
focused and balanced in today's rocky economic workplace.

Too often books that are generated as guides to help establish
a career track miss the point. They have a tendency to develop
ways that become 'wishful thinking' concepts. However, Mr.
Butler's career guide is well put together and relates to day-
to-day job decisions. Students, as well as people already in the
work force, can learn from this.

Overall, this is a great book that can be used as a guide over
and over again. His personal experiences and his unique

observations, along with good research, have produced a very
serious guide. I highlighted several areas of interest on which
I will focus to assist in reaching more of my career goals.

I applaud Mr. Butler for writing a long overdue book that points
out ways to excel in the corporate world. CAREER TRACK OR SIDE
TRACK gives us the edge to face the challenges and achieve
excellence.

Three years into the new millennium problems are more prevalent than the preceding era. We're constantly plagued with the dilemma of wide spread economic disparity, and many dreams deferred. It doesn't have to be this way. Consider the solutions in the form of insightful peripheral vision and thoughtful compassion that author Lionel Butler has written. His work is a mantra with the idea of a safer course for staying on the right track. If there ever was advice to heed and information to be digested one young or old should be aware of his book, Career Track or Side Track. Oxymoronically subtitled, 'A Career Guide For Young African-American Professionals', he gives precise and salient reference to prepare your steps to a better if not productive track, but could very well be touted to anyone. When you open the pages of this book it will pay you to open your mind as well. You will be asked to consider new kinds of intuitive goals and new strategic initiatives by which to accomplish them. You will be invited to systematically analyze your motivation and interactions with various tools and techniques to be able to make viable decisions. Furthermore, you will more than likely will discover (as I have) that reading a book of this magnitude has a way of wanting you to at least give it a try. If true discovery can genuinely put you in the "aha!" mode then perhaps you will eventually surmise that you've made more than a routine happenstance of a book...you will KNOW that your success is not necessarily predicated on your ability and performance in the workplace, but rather, how you go about making the right decision(s).

This book reminded me of the common sense admonitions and practical precepts I got from my grandmother and the rest of the village that helped raised me. No matter what walk of life you prescribe to, you'll learn something from a book of this nature that is so well put together. It is an easy book to read consisting of only 135 pages, with nine thought-provoking chapters. The only drawback was the limited introduction, but more than make up for it with a well-designed and easy-to-follow dictum. This includes three appendixes with informational reference you can use. Butler comes up with timely nuggets of knowledge and the six career influence factors he believes that are vital to success are apropos and seem to give viability to the rest of the book Here are a few:

•Determine your values and priorities early in life
•List your life goals and objectives and implement a follow-through plan
•Evaluate your personal strengths and weaknesses
•Educate yourself and be well-read
•Focus on being creative

You may look at that list and say to yourself, "Duh", but many of our young folk and older people haven't done a good job of making a good account of their lives. Lionel Butler should know. He has over 30 years of experience in military, government, and industrial organizations exemplary of supervisory and planning initiatives to give more than just a passing thought to career choices. So this summer while you're soaking up some sun, immerse yourself in this book. The author's rules and carefully illustrated references will no doubt help you make fewer financial mistakes, and career options for the right track!

This ambitious evolutionary approach to the vertebrate nervous system gives the student all the tools needed to proceed with the advanced (3-volume)works of Crosby, et al (paleo) and Niuwenhuys, et al(neo). The text is well organized and has only a slight amount of redundancy. Would hope the next edition would have improved and possibly colorful figures. This will become the only "one volume" classic of vertebrate comparative neuroanatomy.

While the title of this reference may sound formidable, it is actually suitable for the motivated general reader, and is far clearer than typical neuroanatomy textbooks. Neuroanatomy across the vertebrate lines is considered, with explanations of underlying neuronal and neuroanatomical principles.

If you're looking for some light, funny reading, this is it. You will find yourself wondering if these stories really happened. Nobody could be so absent-minded.

If you like to laugh at other people's absolute stupidity, then check out this book.

Outrageosly funny!!!Whatch the t.v. show Saturday at 10:00 on fox!!!!

Lady Gregory's book is one of the jumping-off points and first fruits of the Irish Renaissance in literature. This translation is one of the classics of modern Irish scholarship. It's fairly readable, especially if you like epic stories, and it does an excellent job of introducing you to mythic Ireland. This is one of Lady Gregory's two finest works, in my opinion.

This book is a translation of many myths, legends, and folk lore of Ireland that make up the Ulster Cycle. The focus of the book is upon Cuchulain, The Hound of Ulster and champion of The Red Branch of Ulster, his life, and his death. A great book for any fan of Celtic myths and legends as well as any lover of fantasy.

"Easter 1916" is one of the finest poems regarding the Dublin insurrection both in its historical account and its encapsulation of raw emotion. Another of my favorites is "The Rose Tree" which relays a conversation between Patrick Pearse and James Connolly, two of the martyred leaders of the Easter Rising. The other poems included are a good cross-section of works from The Wild Swans at Coole (1919) and Michael Robartes and the Dancer (1921)--collections that show the kind of talent Yeats possessed. And there's no arguing with the price; I have found Dover Thrift Editions to be lifesavers in those times when you desperately need to find a poem or short story but don't have $10 or $20 to spend on it. All things considered, this is a fantastic buy.

"'Easter 1916' and Other Poems" is a rich and challenging collection by William Butler Yeats. I read this book as a Dover Thrift Edition. The book includes a 4-page introductory note that discusses the life and career of Yeats (1865-1939), who received the Nobel Prize in Literature. A bibliographic note on the copyright page states that the Dover edition contains Yeats' poems from the volumes "The Wild Swans at Coole" and "Michael Robartes and the Dancer."

Although I found many of these poems obscure and hard to penetrate, I also found many of them haunting and beautiful. And many of the difficult poems opened up to me after additional readings. A mystical thread, as well as an attentiveness to nature, runs throughout this collection.

This book is rich in literary, religious, and mythological allusions. Yeats writes of war, death, grief, aging, love, and beauty. Many of the poems are quite musical--Yeats uses interesting variations in line length, rhyme scheme, poem length, and other effects.

Interestingly, I found the most effective poems in this collection to be those that deal with the relationships and encounters between humans and animals: the majestic "The Wild Swans at Coole," the tender "To a Squirrel at Kyle-Na-Gno," the haunting "On a Political Prisoner," the playful and mystical "The Cat and the Moon," and others.

Of course, there are many additional memorable poems in this collection, such as the deliciously satiric "The Scholars," or "The Second Coming," which has a real prophetic flavor. Overall, a remarkable volume by a significant figure in 20th century literature.

Well, I read a different edition, but I'm sure they contain essentially the same stories. The collection contains many traditional folk stories and several poems from Ireland. The stories are entertaining, and some contain folk wisdom in their morals. Many are told in dialect, with some Irish words left intact. The similarities between these tales and folk tales around the world is striking, though of course characters such as the banshee and leprachaun are distinctly Irish. There is a strong Christian influence in these stories, which makes an interesting blend with the older Druidic elements. I found them entertaining, and they definately are distinctly Irish. Anyone interested in traditional Irish culture, or fairy tales in general will enjoy these stories.

I thoroughly enjoyed this collection. I purchased it as one of a number of books for a friend. This edition has an attractive cover and a solid construction, important for a volume that will be kept and re-read many times.

Yeats is listed as editor of this volume but I feel that probably underplays his importance. The stories are not his invention, but it seems his writing throughout. The stories are well chosen to cover a large part of Irish myth and are well written. This volume and "Mythologies" show Yeats abiding love for the Celtic heritage that surrounded him.

I always enjoy Yeat's writing, from his poetry all the wy to his essays. This volume shows that he can have a masterful touch for myths.

The only shortcoming is that to the modern reader the language may sometimes appear slightly archaic or stilted, though this is rare and somehow seems to fit for a collection of legends.
