Summary

Summary

This multimedia CD-ROM is a convenient, accessible tool for developing cardiac auscultation skills. It contains computer simulations of 28 abnormal heart sounds along with visual representations of the sounds (phonocardiograms), electrocardiograms and pressure tracings for each condition, and animated cartoons showing the anatomic and Doppler flow abnormalities. Users can listen to each auditory heart sound while viewing graphic material that helps identify the abnormality. On-screen controls allow users to selectively listen to portions of the heart sound cycle--S1, S2, systole, or diastole. The program also includes a quiz mode.
When using this CD-ROM headphones are required.
Windows / Macintosh Compatible


Author Notes

Psychologist Dr. David Lieberman writes best-selling, easy-to-understand, self-help books which identify and analyze problematic behaviors and present simple solutions for dealing with them.

In "Instant Analysis: How You Can Understand - And Change - the Most Common, Puzzling, Annoying, Self-Defeating Behaviors and Habits" (1997), readers can identify their own destructive behaviors, such as procrastination and eating disorders, outlined in 100 concise chapters. Lieberman then gives practical, jargon-free suggestions designed to break up negative routines and alter conditioned thought patterns.

In "Never Be Lied to Again: How to Get the Truth In 5 Minutes Or Less In Any Conversation Or Situation" (1998), Lieberman outlines 46 clues to deception, including body language, facial expressions, sentence structure, and word choice, and presents a plan of action that becomes a "human lie detector." The reader learns to recognize the signs of untruth and is taught specific techniques for exposing lies.

Human behaviorist Lieberman holds a Ph.D in psychology and is a board-certified hypnotherapist as well as a nationally recognized leader in the field of short-term therapy. He has presented his theories on television and in audiocassette format, as well as in workshops he facilitates throughout the United States.

David Lieberman's trademarked treatment for this revolutionary new process is called Neuro Dynamic Analysis.
