Davis's PA Exam Review

Focused Review for the PANCE and PANRE

By: Morton A. Diamond

Pass your PANCE and PANRE exams. Here’s everything you need to pass your exam…hundreds of questions that mirror the format and structure of the actual certifying exams. Divided into two sections, “Essentials” challenges your subject knowledge and critical-thinking with vignettes and multiple-answer questions, while “Performance,” offers a simulated exam experience. “You Should Know” rationales provide quick explanations for every “Essentials” section question. Looking for more practice questions? Check out Davis’s PA Exam Review: Additional Practice Questions and Answers for Certification and Recertification. These texts are great on their own, but even better together. Purchase both books for a discounted price. See what students and practicing PAs are saying online about the 2nd Edition... Excellent Study Material “… thank goodness to this book… I was able to feel confident about answering practice questions, PANCE questions and even PASSED the PANCE with much room to spare. The advantage this book has over others is the vast amount of practices questions WITH, I repeat WITH explanations. The author cleverly molds your mind to think on the straight and narrow.”—Cassie A. Got me easily through the PANCE “Discovered this morning that I passed the PANCE!!! This is the only textbook I bought. First half consists of questions that mostly all have multiple correct answers followed by in-depth explanations, just to help you get a good understanding of the material; second half is all one-answer questions in classic PANCE style. One thing I really liked was that each answer to Part 2 tells you exactly where to find the in-depth explanation in Part 1, which saves you a lot of time riffling through the pages going "where did I read about that again??"—Amazon Reviewer Great resource for PANRE! “Switched to Davis and found this to be an excellent review book…Incidentally I did pass the PANRE, definitely looking forward to 10-year cycle. Hope this helps.”—N.K. Scott A must have! “Honestly the best study resource for the PANCE. It was recommended to me by another PA and I'm so happy she did. If you could only buy one book I would make sure it's this. You will not be disappointed.”—Courtney

Queens Consort, Cultural Transfer and European Politics, c.1500-1800

By: Helen Watanabe-O'Kelly,Adam Morton

Queens Consort, Cultural Transfer and European Politics examines the roles that queens consort played in dynastic politics and cultural transfer between their natal and marital courts during the sixteenth, seventeenth, and eighteenth centuries. This collection of essays analyses the part that these queens played in European politics, showing how hard and soft power, high politics and cultural influences, cannot be strictly separated. It shows that the root of these consorts’ power lay in their dynastic networks and the extent to which they cultivated them. The consorts studied in this book come from territories such as Austria, Braunschweig, Hanover, Poland, Portugal, Prussia and Saxony and travel to, among other places, Britain, Naples, Russia, Spain and Sweden. The various chapters address different types of cultural manifestation, among them collecting, portraiture, panegyric poetry, libraries, theatre and festivals, learning, genealogical literature and architecture. The volume significantly shifts the direction of scholarship by moving beyond a focus on individual historical women to consider ‘queens consort’ as a category, making it valuable reading for students and scholars of early modern gender and political history.

The Mammoth Book of Gangs

By: James Morton

A fresh, new look at gangs in every part of the world which deliberately avoids the stories that have been done to death - about Capone, Dillinger, Bonnie and Clyde - and focuses on less well-known gangs such as 'Ma' Barker's Boys; the Smaldones of Denver; Scotland Yard's 1960s' Flying Squad, the so-called Firm within a Firm; Dr Death, the Melbourne drug dealer and Andre Stander, the former South African police officer who led a gang of bank robbers before being shot dead in Fort Lauderdale having fled a 17-year sentence.

In Search Of London

In Search Of London

By: H.v. Morton,v Morton

H. V. Morton turns his traveler's intuition and his reporter's eye for detail to the city that has fascinated him since childhood—London past, present, and timeless. He explores the City and the Temple, Covent Garden, SoHo, and all the "submerged villages beneath the flood of bricks and mortar," uncovering layer upon layer of London's history. Morton follows the thread of imagination back and forth across the city, tracing unforgettable scenes: the Emperor Claudius leading his war elephants across the Thames. . .the grisly executions at the Tower. . .the world of Shakespeare, Dickens, and Queen Victoria. . .and the shattered yet defiant city of the Blitz as well as the postwar London of "ruins and hatless crowds." Morton's quest for London’s heart reveals how its daily life is rooted in a past that is closer and more familiar than we might think, making the book as informative, entertaining, and rich in human color today as when it was written fifty years ago.

Are You Hungry, Dear?

Life, Laughs, and Lasagna

By: Doris Roberts,Danelle Morton

Gangland Melbourne

By: James Morton,Susanna Lobez

Gangland Melbourne details the exploits of an unforgettable cast of villains, crooks and mobsters who have defined the criminal and gangland scene in Melbourne from the late 1800s to the present day. In this compelling book, Britain’s top true crime author James Morton and barrister and legal broadcaster Susanna Lobez track the rise and fall of Melbourne’s standover men, contract killers, robbers, brothel keepers and drug dealers, and also examine the role the police have played in both helping and hindering the growth of these criminal empires. In particular, Melbourne’s criminal past is explored through its famous villainous families, the Painters’ and Dockers’ union war of the 1970s and the more recent underworld gangland killings.Vivid and explosive, Gangland Melbourne is compulsive reading.
