When the beautiful Chisako and her lover are found murdered in a park, members of a small Ontario suburb in the 1970s must finally acknowledge certain inescapable truths about one another and the way their community has been shaped by the dark shadow of World War II internment camps. With all the suspense of a psychological thriller, The Electrical Field slowly exposes all those implicated in the murders -- particularly Miss Saito, the novel's unreliable narrator, through whom we gradually discover the truth. Like Kazuo Ishiguru in A Pale View of Hills, Kerri Sakamoto invokes a Japanese sense of the relativity of memory and reliability of consciousness. Miss Saito, middle-aged, caring for her elderly, bed-ridden father and her distracted younger brother, on the surface seems to be a passive observer. But her own disturbed past and her craving for an emotional connection will prove to have profound consequences. A masterful and elegant story of passion, memory, and regret, The Electrical Field reaches deep into the past and into Canada's communal response to war. A reading group guide is bound into this paperback edition.

Good resource
I bought this to prepare for my RHIT exam, gives a good run down of most HIM topics but does not go in depth, repeat does not go in depth at times, but good for quick referencing and seeing how different topics relate. This should not be the only resource to prepare for test. as I said, does not go in depth on topics you need to know a lot about on exam. For example devotes one page to a topic that you could easily read a whole textbook about. For example, there is a chapter on reimbursement. You’re going to want to actually review your text book that is solely about reimbursement methodologies, but as I said a good general resource to give a refresher and maybe get a better understanding on how different HIM topics relate. At times presented better information than you could find using a google search.

Expensive, but useful
I rented, then purchased. This book has a lot of concise information not easily found online so is worth the money for accuracy. It is a heavy, hardback book but if kept in an office, is a very useful tool.

No online support!!!!
This book is ok. I did found it a little bit confusing! But whats the worst: I went online to use my code and there are practice Questions but NO ANSWERS !!!!!!! Its a big and expansive book, I was expecting more learning tools to help me with studying. Very disappointing that the main organization and founder of Health Inf. Management Tech. would do such a thing to his students!!!! AHIMA- shame on you!!!
