This small pocket book contains more than 500 clinical pearls in 12 major areas of internal medicine, collected from teaching conferences for residents at the Johns Hopkins Hospital. The pearls were selected by two residents and reviewed by senior faculty at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine.
Missouri Curiosities is your round-trip ticket to the wildest, wackiest, most outrageous people, places, and things the Show Me State has to offer. Humor columnist Josh Young has combed Missouri for one-of-a-kind gems that make his adopted home state truly unique. You'll visit the annual Great Stone Hill Grape Stomp, the world's largest underground lake, and the Museum of the Dog's Hall of Fame. You'll meet the inventor of the propeller-driven Airbike, a world champion Japanese midget wrestler, and the acknowledged Queen of the Kewpies. You'll find out which establishments serve baloney burgers, "caveman" barbecue, and hot rolls tossed across the room. Whether you were born and raised in Missouri or are a recent transplant, Young's off-the-wall humor will have you laughing out loud as he introduces you to neighbors you never knew you had and takes you to places you never knew existed -- right in your own backyard.
