(1977) The Book Show: Not Exactly Books
|
The three volumes are intended to be used primarily as notes for lecturers in medical schools or para-medic situations. Type had to be large and clear enough to be read by a lecturer from a podium of darkened room. It was necessary that the slides be reproduced in the book both to help the lecturer in his presentation and for students who might use the volumes as handbooks without benefit of the slide presentation. Three-ring binders were used so individual lectures could be removed by the lecturer and taken to a class lecture.
