Book Description
Veterinary Immunology: An Introduction has been the veterinary student's book of choice since 1977. The 7th edition continues this tradition and has the added benefit of full-color photos and important new information. Still an excellent first-level textbook for students of veterinary and comparative medicine, this text also assists veterinarians by informing them about recent developments in immunology as they relate to domestic animals.

Immunology Defind - The Latest Tizard Blizzard.......2006-02-22
Concruent with previous layouts, this latest edition is repleat with photos, charts and graphics that aid in one's understanding of the fundamental principles detailed herein. A welcome refresher for the practiced veterinarian, it remains the standard text for graduate and veterinary school students alike.
All trees, no forest.......2003-01-09
A comprehensive description of CD/IL this, that and the other, without any grasp of explaining the big picture of the subject. We're doing a chapter a week as part of my internal medicine residency rounds and it's utter torture. I still don't have a good idea of where we're going with this. My residentmates and instructors agree - we're seriously considering jumping ship and buying another book.
A reasonably comprehensive introductory text.......2000-06-16
Tizzard has produced a fine and reasonably comprehensive text for introducing veterinary students to the science of immunology. Starting with easy to grasp basics he proceeds to ever increasing depth in the numerous areas of immunology.
Unlike standard texts, which only teach mouse and primate immunology, Tizzard's book introduces the reader to the differences found in the immune systems of various species. This makes the book valuable not only for veterinary students but for non-veterinary immunology students, who all too often get the impression that all immune systems look and work like the mouse and human systems.
While it is impossible to provide exhaustive coverage of all topics in a limited scope, Tizzard does a fine job of selecting and highlighting the most important findings and concepts in each area. Numerous illustrations aid in making difficult concepts clear and easy to grasp. He also provides bibliographies for each chapter which allow the reader to pursue more in depth studies.
As with his earlier books Tizzard has again made a worthy contribution to the teaching of immunology. It is certainly to be hoped that this textbook will be widely used not only to teach immunology but also to give students an awareness and appreciation of the many ways in which different species have evolved and specialized their immune systems.
Good introduction to immunology.......2000-03-31
Tizard does a good job of explaining the immune system for vet students and producers. If you need to begin learning about this subject, this is a good place to start.
Book Description
Introduction to Veterinary and Comparative Forensic Medicine is a ground-breaking book in an emerging new speciality. It reflects the increasing demand for expert opinion by veterinarians and others in courts of law and elsewhere on such matters as:· wildlife conservation,· welfare of, and alleged cruelty to, animals,· insurance, certification and malpractice· the identification of live and dead species or their derivatives.It also discusses and analyses current concern over possible links between domestic violence and abuse of animals. Throughout the book the emphasis is on the need for a systematic and thorough approach to forensic work. A particular feature is practical advice, with protocols on dealing with common problems, together with case studies, various appendices and an extensive bibliography.A vital reference for members of the veterinary profession, lawyers, enforcement bodies and welfare and conservation organisations. The comparative aspects provide an important source of information for those working in human forensic medicine and the biological sciences.
Book Description
Introduction to Veterinary Pathology, Third Edition, is constructed for the beginning student in veterinary pathology, to introduce new scientific information on mechanisms of general tissue injury into the language of medicine. The basic concepts of pathology are integrated into clinical medicine. Chapters on cellular degeneration and necrosis, inflammation, thrombosis, hemodynamic disorders, and neoplasia have been reconstructed to include the latest in new scientific information and color illustrations of gross pathology. The revised 3rd edition also includes new chapters on:· Infectious Diseases· Nutritional and Metabolic Diseases· Ecosystems and Environmental Pathology· Forensic Pathology and BioterrorismThe new text has remained true to elements favored in a review of the 2nd edition: " ...chapters cover the time-honoured topics of basic pathology ...the information is impressively current and compact. Important points are illustrated with memorable examples of natural disease from the full range of domesticated species and our debt to laboratory animals is also recognized. The text is embellished with pathological vignettes such as an 1819 account of tetanus and the weaponry potential of anthrax, and the many photographs are eye-catching and often paired in order to contrast normal with abnormal or gross with microscopic "--Dr. Malcolm France, course coordinator for Veterinary Pathology, University of Sydney.

simply pillows.......2007-08-01
very easy to read instructions. great ideas for decorating.
You will love it.......2004-08-07
As you may know from other reviews, I feel strongly about the books that please me. I love pillows. Again, I have all the books. This book explains Knot corners, etc., I could never get. Now I get it. Maybe it's me, but I don't think so. It's a great instructive book. If you need all the books, like me, you will love it. It's a great inroduction book. More importantly, if you don't know specfic techniques, it is a great instrucitve book. You should purchase it. I loved it. Non book junkies need not apply. But maybe you should.
many varieties!.......2003-09-07
Lots and lots of different styles and shapes of pillows. Instructions are pretty good with drawings of what the fabric needs to be cut like and step by step text to describe what to do. One thing I especially like is that for each pillow they indicate special techniques used and then tell you where to read specifically about those techniques.
Just What You're Looking For.......2002-10-23
This book is packed with ideas on how to design beautiful pillows and seat cushions. It shows a wide variety of fabrics (cotton, organza, silk, etc), and explains how to use each type to its greatest advantage. The directions for measuring, cutting and sewing are clear and concise. Many clever and fresh design ideas. Inspiring.
SIMPLY PILLOWS.......2000-05-24
HATS OFF TO AMAZON.COM ! ! I purchased Simply Pillows after finding it in a local bookstore and comparison shopping at Amazon.com. The savings through AMAZON.COM were terrific!
SIMPLY PILLOWS is a fantastic "users" book. I have been sewing for well over 30 years and found this book to have many great qualities. The graphic illustrations are easy to follow and the instructions are precise and concise -- not leaving anything out. The only DILEMMA? WHERE TO PUT ALL THE PILLOWS I HAVE MADE THIS PAST WEEK? and I'm still making them ! ! THANKS SO MUCH.

Book Description
Childhood may be changing, but todays cable-ready, all-too-worldly kids are still just kids and should be treated that way. William J. Doherty does not want to recreate childhood as it was in simpler times, he merely wants to help parents adapt to the changes and create an even better future. Dohertys new book, Take Back Your Kids, offers a blueprint to do just that.
Too often, Doherty believes, parents merely provide services and opportunities for children, who in turn consider themselves "consumers of parental services." Hierarchy has diminished. Parents regularly make sacrifices in time and money they perceive to benefit their children. Take Back Your Kids shows occasionally saying no to a childs wish, denying a costly and time-consuming opportunity, allows for more meaningful family moments together at meals, church services and volunteer activities.
Take Back Your Kids gives parents a clear picture of what they should expect from themselves and their children. Doherty describes the skills necessary to be a confident parent--the importance of firm boundaries on behavior, an understanding of when to be flexible, and the courage to express constructive anger and endure the consequences. A good parent may be unpopular from time to time, but children respect and appreciate the exercise of authority in the context of loving family relationships.
Doherty concedes that maintaining those relationships may be difficult amid modern media distractions and fractured families. Take Back Your Kids describes how to monitor media exposure in a culture of constant television and Internet-literate eight-year-olds. He explains why responsible fatherhood may be the most untapped resource in raising children. And he offers advice for co-parents, single parents and step-parents alike to transcend their individual situations and discover the path to loving, respectful and productive relationships with their children.

A Must Read for Every Parent.......2007-01-03
Mr. Doherty does a wonderful job of helping parents understand why they feel so compelled to register their children for every class, lesson, sporting activity, acting lesson and every other opportunity that is packaged and marketed to families. Understanding that children are not consumers of parenting services, helps us understand that children should be allowed to be children, looking to strong, confident parents for boundaries and values. This book points out that the most important thing in your child's life will not be how many trips to Disneyland you provide, or how many weekends your family gave up to travel with the select soccer team. Rather it reminds us that the best gift parents can give their children is the gift of parents who have a committed, loving relationship, and who are willing to take time to be with their chidren creating strong connections and rituals that make children feel safe and secure. This book does not lay a heavy dose of "family values" on you, rather it tells you that you, the confident parent, are in charge of how your children will grow up. It also helps one to understand that confident parenting will result in your children growing up to be well-adjusted, confident adults. I recommend this for everyone!
Clear Thinking on Parenting.......2003-05-17
Let me share a short story about why this book made such good sense to me.
I have two friends, who I'll call Candace and Mary. Candace is the kind of mom who jumps every time her daughter says boo, no matter how demanding or rude the request. Mary, on the other hand, was less 'conscientious.' Her husband was, at times, downright gruff with their kids when they got obnoxious. I always assumed that Candace, because she worked so much harder, was the better mother. Then one day it hit me like a bolt of lightning: Candace's daughter was a whiny, unhappy little girl, whereas Mary's were much happier.
For some reason, many parents of my generation feel we must give our children our constant, undivided attention, must protect them from all forms of disappointment, and never, ever be angry with them. Doherty shows why that's a recipe for disaster. He looks at these misconceptions and gives good, sensible guidance. Probably one of the best parenting books I've ever read.

Should Be Required Reading.......2001-06-27
This book should be required reading for anyone who thinks he or she wants children. As a parent who feels like she's struggling upstream against a tide of other, more permissive parents, it was a relief to read a book that validates my own approach. As parents struggle to provide a multitude of opportunities for their children, we often lose sight of what our children really need to develop into responsible, caring adults. Dr. Doherty's book quickly sets out what our priorities should be and how we should accomplish them.
Highly, highly recommended.......2001-01-27
This is one of THE best parenting books out there. Thank you, thank you, thank you, Dr. Doherty. So insightful, so helpful. A must for all parents. Very easy to read, couldn't put it down, and will be refering to it time and time again through the years. I look so forward to reading his other books.
