Details: "I consider that a man's brain originally is like a little empty attic, and you have to stock it with such furniture as you choose. Now the skillful workman is very careful indeed as to what he takes into his brain-attic. He will have nothing but the tools which may help him in doing his work, but of these he has a large assortment, and all in the most perfect order. It is a mistake to think that that little room has elastic walls and can distend to any extent. Depend upon it. There comes a time when for every addition of knowledge you forget something that you knew before. It is of the highest importance, therefore, not to have useless facts elbowing out the useful ones." – Sherlock Holmes in Arthur Conan Doyle's A Study in Scarlet OR "A man should keep his little brain attic stocked with all the furniture that he is likely to use, and the rest he can put away in the lumber-room of his library where he can get it if he wants." – Sherlock Holmes in Arthur Conan Doyle's The Five Orange Pips In this time of facts and figures, criteria and guidelines, numbers and values, we all hope to be "skillful workmen", but things aren't always at our fingertips. Multitasking being the norm in the daily routine of a doctor, everything we know may not be available to us when we need. Smart phones and apps have filled some of the need, but they are cumbersome to use at times, or are too focused and don't encompass the complete spectrum required. This is where “The Value’able Number Book” will find its niche. The authors have made considerable effort to bring together as much pertinent information as possible. It is comprehensive and simple in its approach and it will prove to be a handy companion. In the words of our fictional fellow investigator “There is nothing more deceptive than an obvious fact”. Let us keep these facts near so that we may do the most with them. Girish Narayan,
