Doody Review Services

Reviewer:Richard P Berardi, BSc, MHA(Temple University Hospital)
Description:This is a complete guide to over the counter drug therapy. The tables and charts are very helpful in determining proper therapy.
Purpose:The purpose is to provide healthcare professionals and consumers with a publication that will aid them in making appropriate, well informed decisions in the treatment of their conditions. The book is worthwhile and helps to fill a gap between online publications and existing publications.
Audience:The book is written for the practitioner in the ambulatory setting. The author suggests it is designed for the healthcare practitioner, but it is appropriate for the pharmacist.
Features:The book provides an overview of specific conditions and applicable drug therapies. The concise format in which the information is presented, with consistent subject breaks, are its best attributes. One shortcoming of a print resource is the volatility of product change or market variation.
Assessment:The book provides good value for the areas covered. It is concise and formatted effectively for the healthcare provider. It would be even better it if the content were expanded to include more categories of information.

Vegetarianism or Tamilee Webbs Defy Gravity Workout

Vegetarianism: A History

Author: Colin Spencer

Colin Spencer provides an in-depth account of vegetarianism. From prehistory to the present, he discusses those who came to vegetarianism by choice, from the religions who preach it such as Hinduism and Seventh-Day Adventism, to the individuals who practice it, including Leonardo da Vinci and, ironically, Adolf Hitler. Throughout history, vegetarians have been maligned and persecuted by their meat-eating brethren. Spencer looks at the psychology of abstention, the ideas behind a meat-free diet, as well as the environmental effects of meat production and the implications of genetic engineering. Although the vegetarian movement dates back to 600 B.C., it is only now becoming a practice valued by many who previously would have wondered, "Where's the beef?"
