Description:
Object Lessons is a series of short, beautifully designed books about the hidden lives of ordinary things.
What is silence? In a series of short meditations, novelist and playwright John Biguenet considers silence as a servant of power, as a lie, as a punishment, as the voice of God, as a terrorist's final weapon, as a luxury good, as the reason for torture in short, as an object we both do and do not recognize. Concluding with the prospects for its future in a world burgeoning with noise, Biguenet asks whether we should desire or fear silence or if it is even ours to choose.
Object Lessons is published in partnership with an essay series in The Atlantic.

Great info TINY BOOK
Format: Paperback
There’s small, and then there’s this book. It’s true that this is a pocket size book. Look at the dimensions and then imagine 6pt font. Giving it four stars because info is great- succinct, useful, and up to date! But taking away one star because it should come with a magnifying lens.

Army Medic Emergency Reference
Format: Paperback
Great book for a field medic for emergency conditions. It fits nicely in my aid bag. The only issue I had with the actual book is it was bent on arrival

Not helpful for new grad
Just random facts
No abdominal pain test panel/plan for example. An emed book should have basic guidelines for most common chief complaints

In paper, excellent, as Kindle book, useless
I've used this book, in early editions, in paper (remember that?), for years. Excellent pocket manual. But as a Kindle book, it's useless, unless you have Superman's microscopic vision.

Format: Paperback
Right to the point info that’s easy to find. As providers we don’t need basic info, this gets right to it.
