Customer Reviews

What a find!

Having recently taken a sonography course without it, I can say that this book would have enhanced my experience 100%.

Excellent!

I was very pleased with the book I received, it was in perfect condition and arrived in a very timely manner. Thank you!!

River Falls Books

The book itself was fine, it did have one page that was slightly wrinkled, but the service left much to be desired. I ordered my book on January 5, 2009. I received an email the following day saying the book would be shipped either the 6th or 7th and I could expect to receive it between January 12 and 28. On January 28, at 5pm, I still hadn't received my book and was quite annoyed, so I sent an email to River Falls Books. They responded saying that the post office didn't recognize our zip code, and they had sent an email telling me that. We have never had problems receiving mail, but we live on the border of two cities, and our zip code is used mainly for the neighboring city, so I could understand if the city and zip didn't match, but why was the zip code itself unrecognizable? The reason I really had a problem is because my job is to take care of the internet orders at the quilt shop I work at, so I know how this should work. And our policy is that if there is a problem with the order, we call or email at least every other day, until we hear back from the customer, and if we never hear back, we refund them their money. River Falls Books only sent one email that more than likely went straight to my junk folder, and when they didn't get a response, did not try to contact me again by email or phone, and also did not refund my money. To me, that is just irresponsible business. If you can't deliver on what you say you will, and you can't reach the customer, at least give them their money back.

A Great Gift

The minute I saw this book, I knew it would make a great present for my cousin who is 16 weeks pregnant with her first child. She was thrilled and soon her mother and others were looking over her shoulder at the wonderful images. It's amazing how much detail you can see through the ultrasounds when they are diagrammed and explained as clearly as they are in this book.
