McMinn's Color Atlas of Human Anatomy
Published in Paperback by Mosby (15 January, 1998)
Average review score: 

The Best Photographic Atlas For Human Gross AnatomyTo all those who are looking for a photographic atlas of anatomy, LOOK NO FURTHER THAN McMINN's. This atlas has dissections and photos that are the epitomy of anatomical science. The book itself is beautifully organized into logical sections that integrate osteology, myology, and anatomy into a comprehensive package. After I read this book, I was ready for anything my professors could dish out on practicals. However, for written (theoretical) anatomy, you will need a descriptive atlas (I recommend Grant's). All in all, this book is extremely useful, and I recommend it to any allied health student who has to take anatomy.
The most beautiful anatomy photographs ever published!The photos in this atlas could be exhibited in an art gallery: the dissections are pure class and the photography is breathtaking. I had no problems whatsoever identifying what was what because (1) there aren't arrows all over the place (the features are labelled with numbers) and (2) the size and resolution of the images are life-size or close (not those tiny pictures in other atlases and previous editions of this atlas). For the head and neck, no atlas can come close: the photos are exceptionally good (even for an atlas of this class) and show different perspectives of the same aspect in good quantity. Quantity however is the downside for the rest of the atlas. Although the photographs are great, there aren't really enough pictures for you to have a satisfying review session. It's probably this fact, and the high price of this book, that has caused Rohen & Yokochi's colour atlas to head the market in its stead. Rohen & Yokochi is a great atlas, but McMinn's is a GREAT atlas. If there were only more photos in McMinn's, all other atlases would be out of print.
Excellent Source of KnowledgeThis CD is just fantastic ! Being a medical student... I was in total awe when Professor Peter Abrahams presented this to our class. Never was my attention so focused on one thing. I highly recommend this CD to any person in the medical field and who is interested in having an excellent grasp on the Anatomy of the Human Body. This CD gives a 3D aspect on every aspect of the human body - bones, muscles, joints etc and that's just the beginning. This is definitely one you should have as part of your medical resources.

McMinn's Interactive Clinical Anatomy -- Head and Neck

THANKS FOR THE "A" MYRNA!!!!!!!!!!!!!Before I bought "Exploring Medical Language" I knew absolutely nothing, and I mean nothing about Medical Terminology.
And to tell you the truth, when I first opened this huge, intimidating, monster of a book, It scared... me... I mean, wouldn't "rhabdomyosarcoma" or "esophagogastroduodenoscopy"
frighten you (just a bit) I thought, nooooo way.

But I opened it, read it, did the cool excersises, listen the the audio tapes, played a bit with the CD-R.
She begins at the beginning.....Little baby steps.
All of a sudden... I was like, I get it! I really get it!
Not only that, but I was beginning to enjoy it.
The prefix, suffix, and word roots suddenely become beautiful, flowing words that make sense.
Myrna LaFleur Brooks made this book come alive, interesting, and allowed medical language to become a little bit like music.
Well, a little!!!! Thanx for the "A" Myrna!
This text is invaluableI'm currently using this book as a supplemental text for my paramedic training. We've just finished cardiology, and I couldn't have done it without this text. I already owned Phalen, Dubin, and Huff; all are good, but the Huszar text is now the one I go to first when I have a question about ECG's. There are a multitude of practical illustrations, tables, and review questions. Best of all is the 200-and-some strips for practice in the appendix. Highly recommend!!

Never Say Goodbye
Published in Unknown Binding by Meteor Publishing Corp. ()
Average review score: 

Sultry and satisfying readSet in Granbury, Georgia, NEVER SAY GOODBYE is a well-crafted story of love lost. When Felicia and Brandon reunite, the sexual tension sizzles like high noon in downtown Georgia. Suzanne McMinn's enthusiastic style and strong voice blend to make for a sultry and satisfying read.
PoignantMs. McMinn has constructed a nicely told story of reunited lovers destined for each other. For a first novel, this one is exceptional. I highly recommend it for those who like small town romance on a grand scale.

Psychology, Theology, and Spirituality in Christian Counseling (AACC Library)
Published in Hardcover by Tyndale House Publishers (July, 1996)
Average review score: 

Table of ContentsChapter 1: Religion in the Counseling Office. Chapter 2: Toward Psychological and Spiritual Health. Chapter 3: Prayer. Chapter 4: Scripture. Chapter 5: Sin. Chapter 6: Confession. Chapter 7: Forgiveness. Chapter 8: Redemption.
A must for therapists who seek to integrate spiritualityMcMinn writes for the Christian professions, the religious, and the lay people. He also seeks to speak to those who are pursuing active integration of faith, psychology and theology. It is very refeshing reading as he discusses classic Christianity and its applicability to everyday problems. With the popular publication's sloppy "a little bit of this and a little bit of that" view of spirituality, McMinn presents a well thought out response. A must read for counselors, psychologist and psychiatrists.

Last's Anatomy: Regional and Applied
Published in Paperback by Churchill Livingstone (November, 1997)
Average review score: 

A lucid and detailed examination, a MUST HAVE.Last's anatomy is the best anatomy textbook available! No contest. R McMinn writes in an elegant and clear style, keeping the information relevant, concise and easy to read. As a medical student, I noticed that those in my class using Last's did significantly better in the exams and vivas than those using the other main textbook, Moores's. I wholeheartedly recommend this excellent book.

Suzanne McMinn has an Undeniable talent -one that is easy to recognize the moment you open her book and find the heroine lying in a coffin. McMinn provides her readers with both laughter and love as they watch Kelly and Garth's romance unfold. Don't miss Undeniable - actually don't miss any of this talented author's work. I won't!
