2.0 out of 5 stars Exercises in Ultrasonography, June 13, 2003

This review is from: Exercises in Ultrasonography: An Introduction to Normal Structure and Functional Anatomy, 1e (Paperback)

I have to say that I thought this book would have more review questions in each chapter. Once you get passed chapter 1, you may get 15 to 20 review questions. I had hope to see more questions. The author failed to give an explanation to the questions and answers. I guess an explanation to the questions may be in the the other black book called "Ultrasonography: An Introduction to Normal Structure and Functional Anatomy". In this book each chapter starts off with review questions. I would have expected a summary of the chapters before seeing the review questions.

If you brought only this book the author says "Pay attention to the key words and objectives". Well, in this book you would not see key words and objectives because they are in the other black book "Ultrasonography: An Introduction to Normal Structure and Functional Anatomy".

The book contains unlabeled images and illustrations for every chapter but it failed to identify and describe the parts of the anatomy in the image. They leave up to you to figure out the parts of the image. Maybe it is in the other black book "Ultrasonography: An Introduction to Normal Structure and Functional Anatomy".

I really don't know what the other black book is about. I'm returning it tommorrow.

In the instructions for students the author says "Pay attention to the key words and objectives". Well I was certainly dispointed because I did not see any key words and objectives.

I am certainly disappointed. I'm returning it tommorrow.
