The most comprehensive clinically oriented nuc med text.

A useful book even for writers for adults
It's a shame this book is out of print. I bought it the moment I read a review of it in the New Zealand Herald. I didn't realise how long it is since it was published--1992. Anyone who wants to write for children will certainly find this a helpful book. Come on, Allen & Unwin, Australia, get your act together and reprint it, with revisions if you feel it is necessary.

A wonderful window into a rarely told story
The full and rich diversity of New York City is on display here in the carefully selected, organized, and documented photographs. In addition, the authors' introduction provides a very helpful context and explanation of the "culture of solidarity" among working people from different industries, unions, and ethnic backgrounds. It's a wonderful window into the lives of ordinary working New Yorkers, their trials and tribulations, protests and passions, successes and strikes!

my favorite scores
Contains Rienzi, Der Fliegende Hollander, Tannhauser, and Die Meistersinger overtures, as well as Lohengrin, Tristan und Isolde, and Parsifal preludes. Great works. Most of the engraving is quite clear, with the exception of Rienzi, which looks like a grainy photocopy (at times difficult to distinguish between natural and sharp accidentals, etc.). All in all, a wonderful resource.

Good source for understanding Middle East
I read this book as a required text for my Middle East Politics class which was taught by one of the authors, Prof. Seibert. I think it gives an accurate walkthrough to the history of Middle East Politics. It stays clear of any bias while trying to examine and integrate economic, social and political factors together. I enjoyed reading and discussing this work immensely. I would strongly recommend it.
