	The Speech-Language Pathology Treatment Planner (Practice Planners)
	By: Keith Landis, Judith Vander Woude, Arthur E. Jongsma ISBN: 0471275042 Publisher: Wiley Release Date: 05 February, 2004 Bioscience book rank: 456183	I found this book helpful when I did my first clinic in speech pathology in grad school. It showed me how to set up a treatment hierarchy (but I couldn't use the goals as they were because they didn't meet my supervisor's requirements), and some general things to do with clients. You won't use it as often as you use Hedge's resources. <br /> <br />If you are a practicing SLP, don't get this book. If you are stocking a clinic library for students in an SLP program, consider it. This book really has a way of being VAGUE. I only gave it one star because there is no zero star rating available. Please be advised that the goals are not written in proper format. The goals do not correctly have normally expressed criterion, reference, the goals are almost always NOT MEASURABLE, the lingo used is not at all the way a goal would be written on even the most basic treatment plan. I was honestly very concerned when I read it and feel very comfortable challenging the authors to revisit it, if they seriously expect it to be taken seriously. This book is a trouble at the very least. This book is very helpful for planning goals for clients. It breaks client disorders down into groups and provides many types of goals that would be appropriate for that client. The only downfall is that there are some unnecessary goals listed in the beginning, dealing with parents and teachers, which any SLP should already be aware of. Otherwise, its great book for any SLP needing a little more guidance in planning goals.

	Pathology Secrets: With STUDENT CONSULT Online Access (Secrets)
	By: Ivan Damjanov ISBN: 1560536225 Publisher: Mosby Release Date: 08 November, 2004 Bioscience book rank: 559117	Generally speaking the book is useful and it might be an excellent help for teachers. It wood be the best if the book will contain more questions and answers about Clinic Pathology and Laboratory analysis. It wood be evn better if correlated with clinical cases, from the simpler to the more complicated. few questions should be of pure reasoning in Medicine and related subjects. In any case thank to the authors for the excellent effort. Finally a book that asks only the questions you need to know. Finally a book that ignores unnecessary details and instead focuses on practical knowledge. This book is for anyone who has ever sifted through a huge pathology textbook wondering what is important. Finally a patholigist and teacher lays out what is important. In addtion to pathology, this book is great for genetics, biochem, endocrinology, and pathophysiology. If you can learn what is in these pages you will have the base you need to answer any USMLE question and you will amaze your residents in year three as you show a broad based knowledge of disease that you can actually use.

	Building Pathology: Deterioriation, Diagnostics, and Intervention
	By: Samuel Y. Harris ISBN: 0471331724 Publisher: Wiley Release Date: 15 February, 2001 Bioscience book rank: 646643	Worthless is a tough word, but I must concur with the extremely negative review. The section on mortar and concrete deterioration is remarkable in its ignorance and complete disregard of any of the knowledge, studies, and science reflected in extensive and widely published materials such as ASTM and ACI addressing decay of cementitious materials. <br /> <br />I use source materials in litigation, and search for publications that are incisive, to the point, and supported by peer-reviewed publications. I blew over a C-note when I bought this turkey on line, because, other than a doorstop or a paperweight with a picture of Falling Waters, THIS WORK OFFERS NOTHING OF USE. This is a truly great book that should be closely read by all building envelope and structural professionals who investigate failures or leakage in new or historic buildings. The depth and breadth of the information provided far exceeds that available in any comparable resource. The book is not meant to provide a step-by-step technical or 'how-to' guide for a building investigator or restorer; instead, it presents an in-depth review of the basic fundamental mechanisms of building stress, leakage and deterioration. If you are not interested in how Poiseuille's Law is a critical limiting factor for potential water infiltration into a porous building material, then this book is not what you are looking for. It is not a light read. The writing often is congested or repetitive and deserving of better editing. However, as a whole, the book is an extremely valuable and comprehensive resource that is unique to the field. Highly recommended. When I received this book I was shocked that a credible publisher like Wiley accepted it.. It is one of the worst professional books I have ever examined. It is poorly organized, extremely pretentious, and lacks credibility. The usable content could be reduced to a few pages, and much of the book is full of irrelevant formulas and lengthy descriptions of overly simplistic concepts. If the author has any advanced knowledge about building pathology, he isn't sharing it with his readers. I expected this book to be professional reference, but despite its pretensions, this book is very basic. As a registered architect with over 20 years of experience in this field, I found this book completely lacking in basic building pathology topics such as industry-accepted testing procedures, historic building technologies, and standards for building assemblies. There were very few case histories, and the few that were described were very brief, with little in-depth discussion. The book also has an inadequate number of illustrations and photographs. A book like this should have been organized by material type, instead of the strange vertical/horizontal method used. Books produced by the ASTM on this topic are far superior to this one, and should be a starting point for a collection of professional literature on the subject. Preservation books like Martin Weaver's "Conserving Buildings" or the Ashursts' Practical Conservation series are more useful for discussions about traditional details and building materials. Dov Kaminetzky's "Design and Construction Failures" is also a good reference. Alexander Newman's "Structural Renovation of Buildings" also has a good discussion of failure and deterioration mechanisms. Unfortunately "Building Pathology" is not the comprehensive reference book needed for this field.
	Gastrointestinal and Liver Pathology: A Volume in the Foundations in Diagnostic Pathology Series (Foundations in Diagnostic Pathology)
	By: Christine A. Iacobuzio-Donahue, Elizabeth A. Montgomery ISBN: 0443066574 Publisher: Churchill Livingstone Release Date: 28 September, 2005 Bioscience book rank: 630003	I've had some complaints with this series, but this is one of the better texts. I have used it extensively and read most of it for review. The tables are quite good, and most illustrations/photos are good. It's certainly much better than teh GI chapters I've seen in multiauthored surg path texts. Definitely worth the money.
