5-0 out of 5 stars The Health Physics Textbook
The fourth edition of Introduction to Health Physics by Herman Cember and Thomas Johnson is a 21st century update to the classic Health Physics text. The new edition expands on the third edition with a content update, more problems, plus modern tables and graphics for better readability.

Chapter 4 On Radiation Sources has been expanded to include an extensive discussion on Machine Sources of Radiation. This new section covers X-Ray Tubes, Linear Accelerators, and Cyclotrons. Chapter 14 on Nonionizing Radiation Safety has been revamped.The chapter is a great help to health physicists needing to expand their skills in dealing with laser and ultraviolet radiation safety issues.

One of the text's strong points is the extensive problem set at the end of each chapter. Diligently working through all of the problems in this text is a prerequisite to passing both Parts I and II of the Comprehensive Certification in Health Physics Exam. The fourth edition of Introduction to Health Physics is a good addition to the libraries of both practicing Health Physicists and students.

5-0 out of 5 stars A new and improved version of a classic textbook!
I studied the 2nd edition of this text as a student and the 3rd edition preparing for both the CHP part I and II. I've recently read through this latest edition and am very encouraged by the updates that have been made. I highly recommend this book for new health physics students, HPs preparing for the CHP exam and anyone with an interest in learning about the field of Health Physics. You won't find another book that covers the full breadth of the field like this one. This 4th edition is a must-have for any serious HP's bookshelf!
-David Bisson, CHP

5-0 out of 5 stars THE book for all Health Physicists
I received my copy of the fourth edition of "Introduction to Health Physics" today and took a good look at it. Chapter two and three don't have a lot of substantial changes, but it looks like the rounding errors in the previous editions have been corrected. There are more homework problems in each chapter too.

Chapter four has a new section on accelerators, with a good explanation of each type. Chapter five again appears to have multiple numerical corrections made, and more homework problems. Chapter six (Radiation dosimetry) has more homework problems, and Chapter seven (Biological basis for radiation safety) has some sections on epidemiology now.

Chapter eight (Radiation safety guides) goes through ICRP 66, with an example for particulate and gasses. The examples for ICRP 66 calculations are clear, but it is obvious that calculating a lung dose with this technique will take a lot of paper!

It looks like there are a lot of updates to Chapter nine (Instrumentation), with more examples, but the photo of the neutron detection instrument is terrible. Again, more homework problems were added. (Makes me glad I am not a student anymore!)

I was glad to see that Chapter 10 (External radiation safety) has a section on NCRP 147. There are examples there too, and in my opinion the explanations and examples are better than the NCRP 147 examples.

Chapter 11 (Internal radiation safety) finally has a decent example with radon. The previous editions did not really have any calculations or examples, so it was good to see this addition. Chapter 12 on criticality remains relatively unchanged, but chapter 13 has new examples and more homework.

Chapter 14 has been expanded significantly. There is a section on UV that finally covers the UV equations on the ABHP part two equation sheet, and there is even an example. There are more laser and RF examples too.

Overall, it looks like the minor calculation errors that I have found in the past are corrected, lots of examples added, and as a sad note to students: there are a LOT more homework problems.If you are a practicing HP, or planning to take the CHP exam, you should get this book.

This book will not be on your shelf, you will be using it!

2-0 out of 5 stars New edition marred by typos and awkward editing
This new edition of the classic text is a disappointment, and it's use as a textbook is not recommended.

For this 3d edition, the list of typographical errors compiled by colleagues and myself stands at four pagesand growing.Errors can be found in the text, the chapter problems, andtheir solutions.Other solutions which are not clearly wrong mayinexplicably differ from your own solution at the second significantdigit.

Formulae are rarely derived from first principles.One exceptionis the change in wavelength for a photon undergoing Compton scattering froman electron, but, even here, a crucial equation (the relativistic energyinvariant) is conspicuously omitted, without which the final equationcannot be derived.The text does not even mention relativity in discussingCompton scattering.(The index does reference "Relativelyeffects" (sic) at pp. 4-11.)

Equations and formulae contain, attimes, an unnecessary proliferation of multiplication signs and units whichobscures the underlying physical principles and the simplicity of theequations themselves.Students are better served by a clear mathematicalpresentation of the underlying physics, rather than being dropped into themiddle of an obscure equation made even more so by the inclusion of severalconstants whose only purpose is to make the units work out.While any texton this subject must deal with the unavoidability of old and new units, mysuggestion is to derive the formulae from first principles and deal withthe units issue (which, after all, only amounts to including appropriateconversion factors) separately as examples or chapter problems.

Finally, the multiplication sign, "x", should be reserved forarithmetic and scientific notation, not symbolic mathematical equations. See, e.g., Equations (3.10), (4.31), (10.17), (10.32), etc., as exampleswhere the multiplication sign is unnecessary.The text also uses themultiplication sign even where numerical values are already set off byparentheses.The text's overuse of the multiplication sign gives the texta grade-schoolish flavor. ...

Editorial Review

Product Description

Due to the diverse diagnostic imaging techniques available (x-ray/CT, Magnetic Resonance, Nuclear Medicine, Ultrasonography) radiologic examinations are made of an enormous amount of images, which means that the elements to be described and interpreted by the radiologist are sometimes exorbitant. Furthermore, the expectations of the population and the ones of the physicians requiring examinations are growing, so that besides patients, also so-called clients (i.e., supposed healthy people) flow into everyday clinical practice of a radiology department, based on disease prevention/screening programs.

Registration and interpretation/reporting modules of a computer-assisted radiologic reporting system were created to help the radiologist in his task. However, the radiologist is also expected to write a report with a diversified language, according to diagnostic technique(s), population type (client vs. patient; pediatric, adult, geriatric), pathology, and across all body areas.

The authors wish to suggest a shared methodology to uniform as much as possible the way of writing a radiologic report, how to most effectively communicate the results of an examination. The important role played by language also from a legal-forensic point of view is also considered.

4-0 out of 5 stars A good textbook
I've been using Martin & Lee as my textbook for 5 years in a graduate course in radiation protection for industrial hygiene students. The book provides good coverage of the full range of ionizing radiation topics in my course syllabus. The text includes good examples of worked calculations and many useful reference tables.I've found only one error in the book; this is much better than a different textbook that I'd previously used.My students, who typically have had only one undergraduate physics course, seem to find the book approachable. ...

2-0 out of 5 stars Disappointing
This is the textbook we used for the Patho class I took. I told a Nursing instructor that the Patho text I had for may class was disappointing and poor. She agreed and said it had been replaced. I felt the reading level of this book was simplistic and the information not very detailed or complete. The instructor for our class put out enough supplemental information the stack of paper was a high as this book. Her material was what made the class useful! I was disappointed we had such a poor textbook for my Patho class. I will probably get a better book and read it this summer. I would say you can get more information reading the internet than what was in this book. If you don't know anything about pathophysiology at all this book may a good "starter" for you. Otherwise, you will probably be disappointed.
