Our Country: The Shaping of America from Roosevelt to Reagan
Michael Barone

Free Press, 1990

The big picture and the small picture
Two warnings: First, the book is long. Second, the author is conservative and doesn't make an effort to hide it. If these facts don't disturb you then I can't recommend this book highly enough. It is a wonderful story of twentieth-century American politics, crammed ...

Harriet Lane Handbook: A Manual for Pediatric House Officers

Essential pocket reference
This book is so often seen on the pediatric ward that it hardly needs a review. I've been instructing residents for 20 years and can't think of one who hasn't used this book from time to time. Indeed, we joke that you can tell how old a pediatrician is by the color of ...
