Review

Amazon.com, M. Wisniewski, RT(T) in Training, New Haven, CT -- "I believe this book is the 'gold standard' of information in the field. Much of my research for written papers comes directly from Perez and Brady's book. As an added benefit, when you purchase a new copy, you get a special code which permits you to set up an online account with the publisher. That, in turn, allows you to view the entire book online (both text and images). The images and illustrations really add to my research papers. All-in-all, well worth the money."-Amazon.com; 5 Stars
