Summary: The Shocking Truth Revealed!
Comment: Ok, not shocking, but in my quest to discern what a career as a BMET (Biomedical Electronics Technician) involves, this book has been an outstanding resource. After corresponding with several leading BMETs in my area and many hours of Internet research, I can report that (to my knowledge) "Critical Careers" is the most complete single source of information for this career option in existence today. I don't say it's the only resource you should consult (I highly recommend corresponding with established BMETs in your area), but it should be first on your list.

Bowles' book is fairly short (around 120 pages of text--not including appendices), but quite valuable in that it answers every major question one should be asking about this career option. Included are discussions concerning schooling and certification, different kinds of employers, potential salary ranges, job requirements, career advancement and industry growth outlook, among other topics. Interspersed throughout the book are a few short letters from various "industry insiders" (usually in management positions) who give their own experiences, opinions and advice---I found these to be a valuable addition.

Summary: From the Publisher
Comment: Just an added note about this book: Because there is so little written about this growing career field, _Critical Careers_ has been adopted by several state colleges and technical institutes and used as a standard course text in classrooms.

Participating schools include Texas State Technical College of Waco, TX; Indiana University - Purdue (IUPUI) of Indiannapolis, IN; and North Arkansas College of Harrison, AR.
