Description: So you think you know horses?
Do you love horses? Whether you live to ride, love to pet, or like to cheer on your favorite at the races, you'll get the inside track on all things equine in this must-read compendium. From breeding and behavior to medical tips and trivia, plus historical and contemporary facts, it's all here to give you more horse sense. 'America's Favorite Vet' Dr. Marty Becker and his wife, Teresa, team up with award-winning writer and horsewoman Audrey Pavia and syndicated columnist Gina Spadafori to answer everything you'd ever want to know about horses--and more!
How long does it take for a baby horse to learn how to stand? What's the difference between a pony and a horse? Why can't a horse just wear a cast on a broken leg? How much horsepower does a horse really have? How do directors get horses to fall down in movies? Do horseshoes really bring good luck? Why do horses walk and poop at the same time? Does a horse know if he has won a race? Is it true horses can't throw up? Are horses good swimmers? Do horses have good memories? While no one will ever be able to fully explain the mutual love, trust, and devotion between humans and horses, this book will bring you one step closer. Giddy up!

Description: News flash: The Indians didn’t save the Pilgrims from starvation by teaching them to grow corn. The “Wild West” was more peaceful and a lot safer than most modern cities. And the biggest scandal of the Clinton years didn’t involve an intern in a blue dress.
Surprised? Don’t be. In America, where history is riddled with misrepresentations, misunderstandings, and flat-out lies about the people and events that have shaped the nation, there’s the history you know and then there’s the truth. In 33 Questions About American History You’re Not Supposed to Ask, New York Times bestselling author Thomas E. Woods Jr. reveals the tough questions about our nation’s history that have long been buried because they’re too politically incorrect to discuss, including:
Are liberals really so antiwar?
Was the Civil War all about slavery?
Did the Framers really look to the American Indians as the model for the U.S. political system?
Did Bill Clinton actually stop a genocide in Kosovo, as we’re told?
The answer to all those questions is no. Woods’s eye-opening exploration reveals just how much of the historical record has been whitewashed,overlooked, and skewed beyond recognition. 33 Questions About American History You’re Not Supposed to Ask will have you wondering just how much of your nation’s past you haven’t been told.

Description: This top-selling NCLEX-RN review package reflects the most current NCLEX-RN test plan and contains more than 5,800 total test questions, including the new alternate-format questions, to help students practice taking the licensing exam. Organized by practice area--childbearing family/neonate, child health, adult medical-surgical, and psychiatric and mental health--the book contains more questions than any other NCLEX-RN review. The author clearly explains the rationale for correct and incorrect answers. Six comprehensive tests resembling the format of the NCLEX-RN are included. A back-of-book CD-ROM contains more than 1,300 questions. The book follows the NCLEX-RN test plan, covering the four major categories of client needs: Safe, Effective Care Environment, Health Promotion and Maintenance, Psychosocial Integrity, and Physiological Integrity. Additionally, like the test plan, the book integrates the following concepts and processes: nursing process, caring, communication/documentation, and teaching/learning. Although the questions in the book are written to test all levels of the cognitive domain (knowledge, comprehension, application, and analysis), the majority of questions in this book are written at the application and analysis levels of the cognitive domain, challenging students to improve their critical thinking skills and apply knowledge to clinical situations.
