Coming to the REVIEW OF THIS BOOK which you all want to read - "FANTASTIC" should say it in one word. Huge improvement in the presentation, contents, pictures, videos & diagrams. The layout and presentation makes this book more enjoyable and interesting to read compared to the 8th edition. The key points in boxes in most pages are good for quick review. Similarly the multicolour tables are helpful. The book is overall well updated and is relevant to early 2006 when it was written. The online edition updates this to current relevance partly and it will be interesting to see how good this new option will be as time goes by.

The NEGATIVE points are - some of the diagrams are too gaudy and oversimplified and therefore practically not good (more like primary school diagrams). Some of the surgical photographs are of poor standard have blood in the field glaring and you can hardly see the anatomy they are pointing to. They need to weed out such photographs & diagrams drastically in the next edition.

Coming to the ONLINE ACCESS of the text book [...]The text search option is miles better than the previous edition and brings out the relevant ones and there is an indicator showing the relevance to your keyword search. It also brings up the image library with relevant images at the same time with rating of relevance to the topic searched which is significant improvement.
There is a scrapbook in your online account which stores all saved searches, bookmarks and your notes. Select multiple images into the "lightboxes" and download the images at the end of your browsing.
You can print the pages you want in a printer friendly format. You can send pages you want to your PDA for browsing as needed.

Overall opinion - 4.5 out of 5 stars. All urology residents and consultant should have this, preferably with the online access "E-dition" option (will cost an additional Euro 100 approx compared to option 2- see below).

Campbells Urology 9ed 4 Volume Book with CDRom Video Clips - WEIN ISBN:0721607985 EAN:9780721607986 . Details same as above but WITHOUT access to online 4 volume text and updates . CD Rom has diagrams, photographs and references with links only.

So remember Campbell Walsh Urology Edition 9ed 4 Volumes is available in 3 TYPES/ OPTIONS !!

Happy reading & Enlightment

Having pretty much read every edition since the Fourth from cover to cover, I have to say the reorganization of the Ninth edition is much more logical. When using the actual text, I would invariably pull out the wrong volume when I wanted to look something up. That is now a moot point with a well-done e-edition. The boxed "key points" are useful during review. The multicolor tables and charts are easier to follow, but the addition of color to the surgical illustrations is generally not helpful, and not as aesthetically pleasing as the plain line drawings. None of these points is very important, since every urologist needs to own this text. Make it easier by picking the e-edition.

I love anything that's a conspiracy. When I heard about Carmen Piper through a friend of mine, it sounded like a Da Vinci Code ripoff to me. But now that I've read it, I think it's even better than the Da Vinci Code since it deals more with my real life concerns regarding health and prescriptions. The FDA wields the power of the FBI in this book, and they use it to their full advantage. I don't wanna give a spoiler, but this book is definitely a page turner, with a cliffhanger at the end of each chapter. Would recommend to any conspiracy theory nut!

In the area of nontraditional high schooling and related issues, Thomas Nixon has no peer.

When I was a kid growing up in Jackson, Mississippi, I had a pretty serious immune deficiency. Leave the house and I'd get sick. The doctors called it chronic fatigue syndrome, but there was no real idea of the cause or epidemiology. All I knew was that I was an 8-year-old with sore, swollen lymph nodes, bad arthritis, and a suspiciously low white blood cell count.

I was lucky; I had a mother who could afford to take time off and teach me at home. Went on to graduate from college; now I'm working on my doctorate. What would have happened if I didn't have that luxury? I have no idea.

But there are plenty of kids who don't. Sick kids, who can't make it to class every day; gifted kids, who are bored with the curriculum; kids with special needs, whose local schools might not provide for those needs in a useful way; troubled kids, who can't handle the social pressures; kids whose family relocate often, and find their educational experiences constantly interrupted. The list goes on and on--and that doesn't even include adults.

For people who fall between the cracks, or just find it cozier there, online high schools can be a blessing. This book will tell you everything you need to know to get online and start earning your diploma.

You see, all three of my daughters are high school dropouts. One was not very happy in a small-town high school that had no labs, no foreign languages, no challenges. She was 'rescued' when a good university recruited her in 11th grade, and off she went. One got through a month of 9th grade in a huge and scary urban high school, and just walked out. And the third never even went to high school; she discovered the GED equivalency exam, passed it at 15, and went on to college. All three ended up with Bachelor's degrees (Phi Beta Kappa), but it was a rocky and twisty road. If only there had been a book about alternative approaches to gaining a high school education and diploma.

Thankfully (for the rest of you), now there is. Tom Nixon's guide book is just the thing my daughters could have used. And now, in the age of the Internet, it is what so many other people need, to help them sort out the bad and fake schools (and there are plenty of them) from the good and excellent ones. Nixon explains how to choose a good school, and then devotes one page to each of 100+ good schools. Even though they're all good, there are significant differences in their curriculum, their cost, their academic model, their religious affiliatin (if any), and so on. This is like hiring a seasoned and excellent counselor for under twenty bucks. Highly recommended.

(Disclaimer: I have written books about earning degrees by distance learning, but I didn't address the high school world in any detail. I invited Tom Nixon to write the short 'high schools' chapter for recent editions of Bears' Guide. One should always go to the best experts, and for online high schools, that's Tom.)

I've used this book or versions of it for a couple of years now...I've often been asked in regular science education classes or in neuroscience or biology situations, "How do we make this stuff accessible to those with disabilities?" Thank heavens for all the tremendous work done by this group and other innovative inventors who strive to put Deaf people like me and those with learning, visual, and orthopedic disabilities on an equal footing with everyone else. This book has more than served its purpose and paid back its price many times over. Teachers and professors are always amazed at the amount of work that is ongoing in this area, as well as the amount of money out there for developing computer technology for the disabled through the National Science Foundation, the Department of Education, and the National Institute of Health, as well as individual companies.

We will never make this country totally computer literate if we exclude specific populations. As the push for inclusion of students with disabilities in regular schools and acceptance of these students becomes stronger, it is absolutely critical that teachers be aware of both hardware and software that can make their curriula more accessible to both disabled and 'normal' students.

I fully endorse and encourage teaching universities and educators and librarians to make sure an updated version of this book is made available so that all students have an opportunity to achieve their highest abilities. Karen Sadler Science Education, University of Pittsburgh

Des genies du Ministere de la Defense Nationale creaient l'ARPAnet, ce qui devenait l'Internet de nos jours. Quant aux auteurs, les infirmieres sont des internautes qui connaissent toutes les destinations dans l'Internet, les plus anciennes et les toutes dernieres. Car on va au File Transfer Protocol, pour savoir quelque chose des soins preventifs des diminues physiques et mentaux. On voyage au Gopher, pour connaitre le lieu pionnier Nightingale. D'une part NURSENET et NRSING-L, et d'autre part alt.support et sci.med, sont des plus reconnus et recherches lorsqu'on veut, respectivement, les nouvelles de l'Usenet et les troiscentaines de discussions Listserv. Bien sur, on fait des recherches dans les bibliotheques du Telnet, et au moyen d'Agency for health care policy and research, Alta Vista et Yahoo du World Wide Web. En fait, les voila, toutes les destinations de l'Internet!

The High-Performance Computing Act of 1991 by Vice President Al Gore Jr when he was just a young Tennessee Senator is one of the forces behind expanding the US Defense Department's ARPAnet into a personal and professional network of the people. Authors Leslie H Nicoll and Teena H Ouellette show how nursing has taken advantage of the different parts of the people's Internet: File Transfer Protocol, for fall prevention support and handicap; Gopher sites, such as the pioneer Nightingale site; about 300 Listserv health-oriented discussion lists, such as NURSENET and NRSING-L; Telnet, with specific health science libraries accessed by the associated University home page; Usenet health- and nursing-related newsgroups, mostly among the alt.support and sci.med groups; and the World Wide Web, with the AltaVista and Yahoo engines searching for free and with the Agency for Health Care Policy and Research uniquely searching and downloading full-text clinical practice guidelines. COMPUTERS IN NURSING: NURSE'S GUIDE TO THE INTERNET is a one of a kind book that works well with Robert Kiley's MEDICAL INFORMATION ON THE INTERNET.

Teel James Glenn keeps finding new aspects of his fantasy world Altiva that are delightful. This adventure of his character Lord Shoutte takes place between the two other books: Tales of a Warrior Priest and Death At Dragonthroat but is unlike either and completely indipendant of them. It is an action, mystery, romance that reminds one of a Samurai movie story yet has gothic horror elements; that is to say--it is hard to describe. The character of Dame Arinna, the pint sized swords woman is worth the whole trip. My only peeve is that the book is a little short, but it clearly leaves many doors open for a sequel..which I look forward to.
L.

Set in Glenn's Altiva Universe, this is a surprising story. It is as much a mystery/paranormal as it is a fantasy. As always, Glenn portrays brilliant characters that leap off the page and into our hearts and minds to make us want more of Universe and its people.

I am a college professor migrating into the "new" world of teaching online. If I had to recommend a book for "How To" this is it. A must read for anyone attempting to go there!

This is a comprehensive, easy-read that brings every aspect of online curriculum development into focus before it marches into the details of practical, successful class management. Through it all, Lynnette's constant thread is defining the role of the teacher in creating an online community that works. She is an excellent guide. Whether your target is an online class or a curriculum, read this one. For the technically challenged, it covers all the tools. For the technology-savy, it draws attention to the human element. Even if you're already involved with online education, you'll find fresh ideas here.

I have read to the half of this book. But I plan to read the rest. One day, my cowoker came to me with a book in his hand, "Hey! buddy, you should read this book if you want to work with .HLP." In the afternoon I went to a bookstore and took the book(It's not inexpensive). As a beginner, I have learned a lot of information about .HLP. I'm now looking for the upgrade edition of the book.

Thank you everybody. Be happy all of you.

It is hilarious and telling that this book has been put back into print recently. That indicates how successful HTML Help has been as a standard (it's not cross-browser, not cross-platform, and not good for single-sourcing in a .chm and website, due to unresolved ActiveX objects). This book is the standard on WinHelp, which is officially back from the dead, and it's a fine book, covering principles of hypertext design, authoring tools, and the bells and whistles supported by the WinHelp viewer. The one patch needed for WinHelp, though, is Synchronize Table of Contents (and a persistent navigation window).
