      5 out of 5 stars Excellent book on how to establish a mentoring program.......2000-03-19

      While this book does not cover the intricacies of mentoring itself, it is a perfect reference for establishing and maintaining a mentoring program. The book walks through the essential elements of a program, repleat with tools and tips for acheiving success. I used this book as a blueprint for a well-received program.

          1 out of 5 stars Don't Bother.......2006-05-22

          Don't even bother with this book as a review for Step 3. The format and layout is not conducive to learning the important details of step 3. The important thing with step 3 is knowing what the best diagnostic test or the best treatment should be. This book lists 3-4 different tests that can be done, but the important thing is knowing which one is the best one.

          2 out of 5 stars You don't need this abuse.......2000-07-16

          A&L do publish individual question books that have pretty good questions. But THESE are dreadful. They are not at all representative of the style, distribution, or difficulty of the questions on the actual test. So why bother? You don't need to be this desperate: the test isn't that hard. Have you ever heard of the "rule of twos"? . . for Step I, two weeks; for Step II, two days; and for Step III, a number 2 pencil! I did something like that (2 months, 2 weeks, and 2 days) and I did particularly "well". But the point is, I scored EXACTLY the same on all three parts! So get a copy of "Ace the Boards" and maybe Swanson's book, and go get some exercise; it's good for the brain! (Unless you've never practiced in the US; then I'd sign up for a Board Review Course like the one offered by NMSR) Good luck!

          3 out of 5 stars Not bad........2000-05-20

          I purchased this book to review for the Step 3. I am a resident in IM. I found the book useful overall, but it lacks many subjects that I thought were important. Its Surgery and Peds sections are especially poor. It does come with 400 review questions but these are mediocre too. Plus, the explanations of the answers are sometimes poor, for example, "This is the correct answer." -- I'm not kidding. Unfortunately, there isn't much competition for Step 3 review. You might try the Pre-test series instead. Their questions are tougher (too tough in Ob/Gyn) but more comprehensive.

          4 out of 5 stars Useful Practice for Step III MCQ's.......2000-04-03

          Although not representative of Step III's degree of difficulty, this book is a good way to practice for the exam especially for the lack of better sample tests for Step III. I used the 1997 edition, watch for the 2000 edition for updates.

            5 out of 5 stars Report on Conference V.......2007-03-29

            The Protostars and Planets V conference was held on the big island of Hawaii on October 24-28, 2005. The conference attracted 805 participants, half of which were from 30 countries outside the United States. This conference, which is held every half dozen years or so, is times so that very substantial progress in a field can be made.

            This book, which contains some 58 chapters which correspond to the talks given at the conference and together they represent the state of the art in our present understanding of star and planet formation, young stars, and the early solar system.

            Among the major strides made between IV and V include:

            . The number of extra solar planets has grown by a factor of 10.
            Multiple plants being discovered around some suns.
            .New submillimeter detectors.
            .Sophisticated numerical simulations on ever-more-powerful computers.
            .X-Ray studies of star-forming regions.
            .Brown dwarfs has now become part of mainstream astrophysics.
            .Much new research into comets and the Kuiper belt.
            .Refined dating techniques that established an age of our solar system of 4567 million years.

              Book Description

              Advanced technologies in astronomy at various wavelengths have provided us with high-resolution and high-quality data of the central regions of nearby galaxies and of the Milky Way Galaxy. These data, both for the Galaxy and extragalactic centers, are now quite suitable for detailed comparative study. This IAU symposium was aimed at understanding the general characteristics of dynamics, ISM physics and magnetic fields, activities including inflow and outflow, as well as starburst, in the `galactic centers'. Special attention was also given to several cases for massive black holes in galaxies and the Galaxy, and to understanding the physics of nuclei associated with black holes.

                Studies of stellar formation in galaxies have a profound impact on our understanding of the present and the early universe. The book describes complex physical processes involved in the creation of stars and during their young lives. It illustrates how these processes reveal themselves from radio wavelengths to high energy X-rays and gamma -rays, with special reference towards high energy signatures. Several sections devoted to key analysis techniques demonstrate how modern research in this field is pursued.

                    Book Description

                    Recent discoveries of extrasolar planets and new direct evidence for protoplanetary disks around young stars have had a major impact on our understanding of star and planet formation. This volume provides a thorough, up-to-date, and concise overview of the physical processes involved in the formation of stars and their surrounding disks. The book traces the story of star formation from the fragmentation of cold molecular gas clouds, through the formation of protostars and rotating dusty disks to the subsequent accretion of material onto the central star. Lee Hartmann integrates state-of-the-art theoretical models with recent observations, highlighting important problems that remain to be solved.

                        Book Description

                        The unprecedented sensitivity of the Infrared Space Observatory and the far-infrared window provided by IRAS led to spectroscopic surveys throughout the entire infrared region. In particular, the high resolution allowed for pointed observations of individual sources. The authors of this volume are principal investigators of the ISO mission and present a host of new data analyses that should trigger novel astrophysical research in the far-infrared. A particular feature of the book is the emphasis on object-oriented presentation of the observations. The book addresses researchers and students alike.

                            Book Description

                            The observational evidence for the existence of black holes has grown significantly over recent decades. Stellar-mass black holes are detected as X-ray sources in binary systems, while supermassive black holes, with masses more than a million times the mass of the Sun, lurk in the nuclei of galaxies. These proceedings provide a useful and up-to-date overview of the observations of black holes in binaries, in the center of the Milky Way, and in the nuclei of galaxies, presented by leading expert astronomers. Special attention is given to the formation (including the recent evidence from gamma-ray bursts), physical properties, and demographics of black holes.
