So, you want to go to Medical School?

By: Daniel C. Merrill

There are tons of books out there telling you how to improve your chances of getting into medical school. All of these tomes are based on the assumption that the prospect reader wants to become a medical doctor. The author of this eBook believes that, in this day and age, the question should be not how you can get into Medical School but whether or not you should ever consider going to Medical School in the first place. This book paints a very different picture of the medical profession than the one most students, and their parents, envision when they set out on the long arduous pathway to achieve a MD degree. In some ways deciding on a medical career today is similar to entering a bad marriage that was doomed to failure from its inception because of some fatal flaw in one or both of the participants or because the supposed benefits of the union were wildly exaggerated. When considering a medical career today one must carefully weigh the options available in today's multifaceted work place wherein there are literally endless opportunities to become financially secure in a variety of challenging occupations. More importantly, today's prospective medical student should consider very carefully whether the ultimate financial benefits of a medical education can even remotely compensate them for all the years of study and hard work it will take to become an MD, let alone the massive debt most of them will have to take on to achieve this rather dubious goal. This 10 chapter 6653 word fact filled eBook deals with all of these important issues in a straight forward fashion. If you, or your son or daughter, is considering a medical education this may be one of the most important books you will ever read! Finally, this book should be read by young people, students in their junior or senior years of high school. If you stumble onto the book after having completed a year or two of premed in college and then decide that a medical career is not for you, a significant amount of time and money will have been wasted taking courses like chemistry and physics that may have little or no application to other fields of interest.

America in Decline

America in Decline

By: Daniel C. Merrill

America is in decline and has been for over six decades, of that there can be little doubt. The reasons for our countrys economic and moral decay are detailed in part 1 of this book. In part 2, I will suggest steps, short of a second revolution, that should be taken to rescue our floundering ship of state. Finally, in part 3, I predict what is likely to occur if we do not have the courage to institute the changes required to restore the nations economy and put its citizens back to work. I believe, as will become clear after reading the first few paragraphs of America in Decline, that the decreasing cognitive ability of our citizens over the past half century has played a major role in Americas fall from greatness. Our failure to recognize the importance of intellect, especially the concept of inherited cognitive ability, is largely responsible for most of Americas social and economic woes.

The Earthworm Farmer's Bible

By: Daniel C. Merrill, M.D.

Dr. Merrill has written numerous books and novels. In this book the author shares his extensive experience in vermiculture and his lifelong passion for organic gardening with the reader. We believe this to be the most comprehensive book ever written on earthworm farming and organic gardening. Dr. Merrill tells you how to raise earthworms, what to feed composting earthworms and how to harvest and process the valuable worm castings your earthworms will produce. You don't have to invest a lot of money on worms or expensive bins to compost your kitchen waste and newspapers at home. You may be surprised to learn that you can get started for less than the cost of a couple of cups of coffee at Starbucks. In fact, you don't have to spend a dime on earthworms Dr. Merrill tells you where to get them for free. Yes, for free and your initial worm bins can be purchased from any hardware store for less than $10.00! For those who are interested in a larger commercial worm farming operation, the author tells you how to achieve your goal, again, at far less expense than you might expect. As Dr. Merrill says "You don't have to invest thousands of dollars on worms and expensive equipment to make a lot of money in an earthworm farming business.

Escape from Chaos

The Legend of Dynamite Sam and the Second American Revolution

By: Daniel C. Merrill M.D.

The author spins a tale of political intrigue that will keep readers riveted to their chairs. Dr. Merrills epic novel may hit to close to home for those who are unwilling to face the challenges that we face in our beloved country as the liberals proceed, like a malignant tumor, to devour every vestige of the America our forefathers envisioned for us. We do not have to follow Greece into the ash heap of history. A few good men can change the course of events as Dynamite Sam and his band of aging revolutionaries demonstrate in this fictional portrayal of the political events in the year 2015. You will never guess the ending, not in a million years you won't! After reading this book, you will have to decide whether to condemn the California liberal dingbats for the fools that they are, or sit back, with a glass of scotch, and marvel at their ability too even form words. -- Bill Frisk A marvelous description of the sad state of affairs in America today and an inspirational depiction of what it can be if a few good men and women are willing stand up for what they believe in, and fight! -- Bill Blumenstock

What You Should Know About Prostate Cancer

By: Daniel C Merrill MD,Daniel C. Merrill

During his career at the Martinez Administration Medical Center in California Dr Merrill was responsible for the care of thousands of men with prostate cancer and has performed hundreds of curative radical retropubic prostatectomies. In this eBook Dr. Merrill shares the knowledge gained from this experience with the reader. It is the author's strong belief that no one should die of prostate cancer in the 21st century. Dr Merrill also believes that the key to beating this potentially lethal cancer is early diagnosis and aggressive surgical removal of the cancer before it has spread beyond the confines of the prostate. Younger cancer free males should use the information in this book to be sure that they are being properly screened for prostate cancer at appropriate intervals. Men who have developed prostate cancer may use its contents to familiarize themselves with the pros and cons of the available methods for treating prostate cancer including open surgery, radiation therapy, brachytherapy, cryosurgery, laparoscopic surgery and robotic assisted laparoscopic surgery. It is essential that the male with prostate cancer have this information at his finger tips when discussing his treatment options with the urologist or radiotherapist. The treatment choices for males with metastatic disease are also addressed while stressing the advantages of the subcapsular approach to orchidectomy. Finally, Dr Merrill addresses the all important issue of how to pick a surgeon.

Gardening the Organic Way

By: Daniel C. Merrill M.D.

Few people today know how to grow the fruits and vegetables they eat. Even fewer understand the importance of growing them organically. Many of those who do appreciate the value of organic produce are dissuaded from pursuing an organic garden because of the exorbitant cost of commercial organic fertilizers. Dr. Merrill points out that organic gardening does not have to be an expensive undertaking; rather, anyone can garden the organic way at little or no expense simply by generating valuable earthworm castings from their kitchen and paper waste and by taking advantage of animal manures that are available at no cost in most areas of the United States. This book tells you where to find these valuable organic resources and, more importunely, how to use them in your wonderful organic garden. The book is full of additional gardening information, including watering techniques, the correct way to plant seeds, and methods to control pests and insects without using toxic sprays and poisons. Happy gardening!
