Nice Handbook:
This is a really nice handbook. It is great to have in a lab coat pocket or bag so that you don't get stuck somewhere with nothing to read. Obviously, this is not a reference text. Easy to read and loaded with high yield information.
Exactly what was ordered:
Book came in perfect condition. Exactly as described. Quick shipment. Would buy from this seller again.
Absolutelly fantastic!:
I bought baby Barash and I loved it. It is the best first book you can have, and you can always bring it with you and have it ready. It is easy to find what you need. The information is compacted but enough that you can have a pretty good idea of a particular topic. It is a lovely book!
Excellent:
A very nice companion to Barash's 2nd Edition "Big Book". A nice OR quick reference/primer. Also very helpful as a quick summary/review after reading a chapter in the big book.
