Hi Lori,
If It were me, I'd keep the picture captions, unless cleaning them
up were a complete nightmare. I like to know that kind of stuff. You may
and probably will, have to label them as picture captions, so as not to make
people wonder what the text refers to, but I'd love to have those kept.
Just my opinion.

Subject: [bksvol-discuss] Question about Pictures and Comment
Hi, Everyone,
I plan to submit a book called "Change your brain, Change your Life" by
Daniel Amen.
The book is very readable and contains a number of interesting case studies.
I have a question about how to treat the pictures in the book.
In each case study, the author includes a series of pictures of brain scans
which contain headings such as the following:
Sally's SPECT Studies
horizontal view at rest
Note goodprefrontal activity (arrows).
horizontal view during concentration
Note marked decreased activity, especially in the prefrontal cortex.
Should I leave these headings as they are or delete them. Scans such as
these occur on every tenth page or so, and he covers the results of the scan
in his narrative.
Since the information heading the scans is not really helpful, I am tempted
to omit them, but if someone were to discuss this book with a person who was
looking at the scans, nowing they are there might be useful.
I would appreciate any thoughts on this.
Also, for the first time, yesterday I downloaded a newspaper from Bookshare
to read on my bookport. In the past, I have looked up articles on a paper's
website or listened to brief sections on the NFB newsline, but I have never
before in my whole sixty years had a complete paper at hand to peruse. It
was a new experience, and when I told my sister about it I got tears in my
eyes.
