Superb book
Though there are sections about cataract surgery, this excellent book will probably appeal to a pretty limited group of Eye M.D.s due to the subspecialization.It is aimed at people performing anterior segment surgery, but who do corneal and refractive surgery as well.Useful tips include gluing corneal ulcers and perfs, PTK, and PRK and LASIK.There are also tips for full-thickness grafts.Very useful and highly recommended.I hope the authors come out with a new edition in the future. ...

Product Description
On Risthmus, the Landing Pact was law: felines were off limits. And for ten years Tsia, the rogue guide, had tried to honor that Pact and ignore the irresistible pull of her forbidden link to the cats.

For ten years, she had hidden among the mercenaries. But now her latest mission was going awry. A crash landing was followed by one deadly mishap after another. The cougar cub Tsia had rescued from a storm refused to leave her -- even when she tried to send it away.

Tsia could save the mission -- if she deliberately broke the Landing Pact to enter the mind of the cat and command his help. But if she was found out, punishment would be the loss of her biogate, her telepathic link with the felines. Her past was about to catch up with her, and only if she faced it -- and used it -- could she hope to forge a new future...with the cats! ... Read more

Call of the Cat
In Cat Scratch fever we learn about the psycic links between the colonists and the animals and the promise to the cats.Tsia's guide link unfortunately is to the cats.Cataract takes place ten years later, she has avoided using her link but now the mercenaries she has been hiding out among are in trouble and her link to the cats is helpful, plus has been useful to one of the cats in giving her the ability to help it.I can't wait for the third installment to the cat series.

Excellent keeps you at the edge of your seat
A great bok Tara really puts her heart and soul into her writing.Keeps you curious the whole time.

Difficult to comprehend unless read several times.
Unless you've read previous books in her "cat" series, it's difficult to grasp what's going on [I haven't read any by her except for all of the Wolf books].Otherwise, detail abounds and the *telepathy* theme is marvelous [as well as the Ixia, which I didn't fully understand at first...read the book] ...
