Rarely does one find a medical book that is so easy to comprehend, yet the reader gains immediately-useful knowledge; heretofore such practicality was unknown in radiology.

The background information is superbly presented, so that the reader can effortlessly and quickly make his way through the simplified presentation.

So delightful is this large-format, profusely illustrated text, that the reader finds it more recreational than didactic, learning all the way.

This "plain English"(author's words) approach is THE way to understand X-rays. I wish it were available when I was in training. Highly reccommend!

This book gives a simple overview of some common x-rays and helps to clarify their meanings.... literally in plain English! If you have read Dubin's Rapid Interpretation of EKG's and liked it, then you would love this book. It is set up similarly. It's an easy read and there are tests at the end for review. I highly recommend it!

Easy to read, clear to understand, simple to apply. Highly recommend it for anyone that is new to xrays!

Great resource for beginners. Easy to read and understand. I'd buy it again just to have as a resource.

handy book for someone just learning to review xrays. I used this book when I was in NP school. Helpful tool.

As the title says, it's in plain English. I am in NP school and have perused other Xray books, but this author has a way to make things click. Other than taking a radiology rotation, I can't imagine a better way to learn about XRays.

I'm taking a health assessment class and was a little worried I would not be able to grasp all the concepts of xray assessment. This book was very easy to read (almost too juvenile at times) but provided some easy reading in a class that had very little. It did make xray evaluations not seem intimidating at all. Helpful.
