McCabe and Susan Perry. Ms. McCabe and Ms. Perry contributed to the project by corresponding with committee members, nominators of books, and publishers. They also maintained and updated relevant files, collated and assembled the final bibliography, and checked the accuracy of citations. The author is also grateful for the time, energy, and ideas provided by the members of the Library for Internists VIII Core Committee and by members of the ACP Publication Policy Committee. The greatest debt of all of us who worked on the project is to the many physicians and librarians who took the time and effort to nominate books and provide meaningful answers on the survey forms. Without their help, the bibliography could not have been assembled.
