ERT Books

This is a course that includes five modules. These modules purpose is to provide a general introduction to the basic concepts for first-responder awareness at the scene of a potential terrorist incident. The five Modules consist of Terrorism and Perspective, Incidents and Indicators, Self-Protection, Scene Control, Notification and Control. There is also a glossary and three appendixes. Appendix A is Terrorism Annex to the Federal Response Plan, Appendix B is the Presidential Decision Directive 39 (Unclassified), and Appendix C that has a Related Course List.

I would recommend this course for all fire personnel; emergency medical service responders; and hazardous materials responders. It would also benefit law-enforcement personnel; emergency communications personnel; jurisdictional emergency coordinators; emergency management personnel; public works management; public health workers; Armed Forces, Reserves, National Guard; and disaster response agencies.

Matt Feazell's stick figures may seem simple, but they express so many emotions and ideas..! This book collects strips from the early 90's -- and they tackle everything from _The Hobbit_ to the Exxon Valdez.

The characters rock. Cynicalman saves the environment, hangs out with Gandalf and teams up with Psycho Woman ("Don't touch me.") Antisocialman (the most obnoxious man alive) lives up (or maybe that should be "down") to his name. A massive cat terrorizes Cute Girl.

The topics range from silly to serious, but the strips always entertain. Anyone who loves comics, stick figures, or cool humor would love ERT!

Its a good Book, and very much to the point and accurate. Good Luck.

I am a client who was helped tremendously by Ann's advice. Her natural solution helped me feel good again after a hysterectomy and problem after problem with synthetic hormones. Those who have been through this know what I mean. Thank goodness I found her!

I bought this CD-ROM as it was meant to play on a Mac computer, however, it only works with Operating Systems 7.1 to 8.1 so if you have a newer Mac it will not play on your system.

The questions are obsolete and dated. The product format does not reflect the current exam format at all and for the number of questions I think it is over priced. There is far better software CD's available out there to help train people who are taking CBT - USMLE exams.

This CD ROM was helpful in that you could start practicing for the new computer based testing. They do have explanations for why the answer is right, but do not explain why the wrong answer is wrong. Otherwise, questions were good, picture questions were also just as good. I have tried other step 2 software, and this is definitely the better of them. It's worth it to get practice.

This CD-ROM does not accurately reflect the USMLE format, but it still gives you a good simulation of taking a test on a computer. You get feedback on how well you did on each subject (i.e. Surgery, OB/Gyn etc) for each practice test, which will help you to know your weak points. It also has a review section that you can work on while you are studying the subject. The best thing about this CD-ROM is that it makes you feel like you are playing with a quiz-type computer game, and actually enjoy the test preparation.
