"I LOVED your book. Read it over the weekend. I particularly thought that these sections were extremely valuable for travelers: Politics What it takes.. Tax Info Homeschooling …all the questions that even experienced travelers want answers to. YOU GO, GAL!! Great job!"
	Greg Allen, Cirrus Medical Staffing
Epstein... YES I read the ENTIRE book and I thought that you did a GREAT job on the ins and outs of being a traveler and I love how you went into a little detail about how travelers are often given the more difficult assignments and are treated differently in some locations because everyone thinks we make sooo much more money than they do! It was a great way to throw much needed light on a topic that often discourages new travelers. It was AWESOME...as always!

"I am a huge fan! Highway Hypodermics is required reading in our office."
	Mary Cheek, Bestaff Arcadia
My first impression was I liked the more in depth reviews of travel companies, which is helpful to gaining a knowledge of what the different companies offer. I also believe there is no perfect travel company, but each nurse can benefit by doing their homework in Highway Hypodermics to determine which company best fits them. Like in all of life, it is very hard to have a company that is tops in pay, service and benefits. Each nurse needs to determine which is most important to them and find the company that best delivers that need. I do agree that a good recruiter needs to know their nurse's strengths, likes and desires. And a pro-active recruiter is always a benefit to all involved. Thanks for what you do for the industry. Your service is helpful to all of us involved in it.
