Tokyo: New Japanese law publication, 1990. First Edition. Hardcover. Very Good. Signed. Shigeto Ikeda - *Signed* Mune No Shashin to Yomikata (Chest X-Ray Photographs and Their Reading Procedures). Maroon boards, in paper slipcase, there is a small cosmetic dent to the top cover, and light corner bump to the top, both showing in the slipcase as well, but these are minor defects not touching the interior at all. This copy is *AUTOGRAPHED/SIGNED* by Shigeto Ikeda on the fly in Japanese kanji characters, and on the laid in letter in roman characters. From the laid in letter "The title of this book in Japanese is MUNE NO SHASHIN TO YOMIKATA, may be translated into English as Chest Photographs and Their Reading Procedures, and it has two main features, i.e., firstly, enlarged pictures of chest images as the main themes clearly and plainly explained by overlay method, and secondly, discussing the diagnostic procedures on the chest images in the comprehensive study. I would think that this book could be considered as an atlas of the highest class." There is no english text in the book, it is entirely in kanji characters. It is a high quality glossy photographic book of chest x-rays, with clear plastic overlays showing how to see what is there. 324 pages.
