Review

" "Boarding Time" is a superb book, written by two experienced psychiatrists. It is clear, full of useful clinical information and excellent teaching vignettes informed by warmth, compassion, and humor. Most psychiatrists would benefit from reading this book, particularly candidates for Part II of the board examination, residency training directors and all Board examiners."-- "Harold I. Eist, M.D., DLFAPA, Clinical Professor of Psychiatry, George Washington University, Immediate Past President, Washington Psychiatric Society, Past President, APA"

"This book is worthwhile for its intended audience, though its time is limited, as the ABPN is eliminating part II of the board examination by condensing both portions into one test, complete with case-based simulations like those seen on the USMLE Step 3 licensing examination."-- "Steven T. Herron, M.D., (University of Arizona Health Sciences Center), Doody Enterprises, Inc."
