| Patients are not items in an assembly line. Each individual is different externally and internally; the chemistry is also different. You cannot treat all of them using the same idea or technique or knowledge just as much as they are not molded using the same template or cookie cutter. You cannot relate the sound of hoofs merely to horses; they could be zebras.
Good doctors have to think out of the box. What they studied in medical school, read in a medical journal, and heard from their peers' ... Read More: |

List Price: $59.99 Childrens Bookshop Price: $43.79 You Save: $16.20 (27%)Prices subject to change. Used Price: $29.94 |
| The first half of the book is very interesting. It covers a variety of situations that human cadavers are used in science and medicine. The last half of the book goes off-topic about historical uses of cadavers (mummies, etc) to just weird (folk medicine). |

| I bought this book years ago, and just recently my life changed enough that I needed to read it again. I have no idea where that original book is, so I bought it again. This book is timeless in it's knowledge and information. There are things that we never know exist until our eyes are open. It's simply amazing how the laws of the universe are fact, and how they go on whether or not we believe them, understand them, or even know about them. This is one of many books everyone should have in their library, next to other books ... Read More: |

| 6.Complications: A Surgeon's Notes on an Imperfect Science by: Atul Gawande April 04, 2002 |

| It's not that doctors skip most of their classes or that they're getting a second-rate education. It's that we walk in as enigmas--we don't fit the textbook case. Just extracting this idea from "Complications" is worth your time and money. Instead of becoming frustrated and/or scared from an "I don't know" response, we can attempt to appreciate the complexity of our bodies and the influential contexts in which we live.
Gawande writes with an excellent style. There's humor, irony and mystery throughout. The topics ... Read More: |

For those who are wondering if the BRS Physiology book is worth it: IT DEFINITELY IS!!! I am very happy that I purchased it and know that I will be using it for decades... yes I said decades. |

| This product is a favorite of both students and educators in the ADN program in which I teach. For a number of years now we have recommended it to help students prepare for their NCLEX-RN. I would recommend this book to anyone who wants to learn HOW to answer NCLEX style questions. This is not a content mastery book but a strategies book. |

| I regularly purchase books from Amazon.com, but this is my first review. I have decided to write about this study package because of the incredible experience I had using it.
I first took the MCAT in August 2006 and scored a 28Q. I had used Kaplan books to study for the test without taking the expensive Kaplan class. I believed that I could do well enough on my own to justify saving the money on one of those classes. After applying to medical schools last year, making it on to two alternate lists, and ultimately not receiving ... Read More: |
