Do you have a baldy clue as to who the bears and junglies are? Confused by the thought of some cheekywatter from your cargo? Fancy a day out at Fort Weetabix? Or would you rather settle down with some swedgers? After all, you don't want to be a stank dodger. Confused? You need this book. Michael Munro has won the eternal gratitude of Glaswegians for his efforts in popularising their city's dialect, universally known as the 'patter'. This book is the most extensive collection of this rich and expressive language ever made. Often hilarious, sometimes coarse (but never dull!), good knowledge of the patter is the key to understanding Glasgow and its inhabitants.

Have you ever closed your Bible and thought, What did I just read? Whether you're brand-new to the Bible or you grew up in the second pew, reading Scripture can feel confusing or boring at times. Understanding it well seems to require reading it thoroughly (and even repeatedly), but who wants to read something they don't understand? If you've ever wanted to read through the Bible or even just wanted to want to read it, The Bible Recap is here to help. Following a chronological Bible reading plan, these recaps explain and connect the story of Scripture, section by section. Soon you'll see yourself as a child of God who knows and loves His Word in the ways you've always hoped for. You don't have to go to seminary. You don't need a special Bible. Just start reading this book alongside your Bible and see what God has to say about Himself in the story He's telling. "Tara-Leigh gets me excited to read the Bible. Period. I have found a trusted guide to walk me into deeper understanding of the Scriptures."--MICHAEL DEAN MCDONALD, the Bible Project

The United States Medical Licensing Examination® (USMLE®) is a three step examination for medical licensure in the United States and is sponsored by the Federation of State Medical Boards (FSMB) and the National Board of Medical Examiners® (NBME®). The USMLE assesses a physician’s ability to apply knowledge, concepts and principles, and to demonstrate fundamental patient-centred skills that are important in health and disease, and that constitute the basis of safe and effective patient care. Each of the three steps of the USMLE complements the others - medical students that aim to complete their degrees and plan to practice medicine in the USA have to pass all three USMLE Step examinations. USMLE Step 1 assesses whether medical students or graduates understand and can apply important concepts of the basic sciences to the practice of medicine. It covers both systemic (general and individual anatomical characteristics) and procedural (functional, therapeutic, environmental and abnormality) themes. (www.usmle.org). Platinum Notes USMLE Step-1 is an affordable, comprehensive revision aid to help medical students and graduates in their preparation for Step 1 of the USMLE examinations. The book brings together all the latest topics and USMLE exam type questions into just one volume, minimizing the need for multiple revision resources. Revision questions at the end of each subject are included.
