    CD-ROMs

    LWW often publishes a CD-ROM as a derivative work of an existing textbook. Publishing a library of images, a collection of lessons or lectures, practice tests/cases, topics, exercises, or video/audio clips can be helpful to professors and students in lab and classroom settings. Reference texts, such as lab manuals segmented topically by disease, drug, species, etc, can easily be converted into searchable material ideal for CD development. Please visit our CD-ROM library for examples.

    Handheld Programs

    Programs for handheld devices are emerging as a popular complementary product. PDA programs are ideal for books arranged by topic containing valuable characteristics, descriptions, or references. Texts that offer an extensive collection of questions and answers are also ideal for PDA programs. PDA program downloads can be packaged with CD-ROMs, offered on a companion website or as a stand-alone product on the LWW.com online store.

    Casebooks and Handbooks

    Casebooks and handbooks can add significant value to popular, well-respected textbooks. A casebook is generally a compilation of case studies related to the topic areas of a book. Professors may use them as a supplement to teaching materials and as a resource for testing questions. Casebooks are beneficial for students as study aids and preparation for post-graduation exams.

    A handbook is an ideal complement for a large, comprehensive text to highlight the essentials of the text. Handbooks make the most relevant information in a sizeable book easily accessible to clinicians, technicians, and students in labs and on rotations. The Handbook of Primary Care Medicine effectively illustrates the use of this type of companion product.

    Practice Exams

    If one of our books has been published specifically to help students prepare for a post-graduation exam, a practice exam workbook is often developed to accompany the primary text. The practice exams is a smaller workbook consisting of tests to help students review, prepare, and become familiar with the professional exam format. For information on workbooks and study guides, visit the book ancillary information page.
