Some  suggestions:

Definitely:
Basic Health Physics Problems and  Solutions, J. Bevelacqua, Wiley
Interscience, 1999
Contemporary Health  Physics, J. Bevelacqua, Wiley Interscience, 1995

Also:
Atoms,  Radiation and Radiation Protection, J. Turner, Wiley  Interscience,
1995
Radiation Shielding, Shultis and Faw, ANS, 2000 (much  is more advanced tham
the Part II. Cember & Johnson has  enough)
Principles of Radiological Health and Safety, Martin and Lee,  Wiley
Interscience, 2003
Environmental Radioactivity, Eisenbud and  Gesell, Acadmic Press, 1997
ICRP-60 / ICRP-103
Perhaps someone can  provide a good list of NCRPs?  I would look at  
NCRP-160

For whatever its worth, we still use Cember on  a regular basis  at work.

I was brainstorming with a  colleague that's assisting a University HP
program, and one thing that came  up is what someone should  be doing after
passing part one and being  eligible for the CHP Part 2 exam.  I was 
thinking
about what books to  recommend that they read to further deepen their
knowledge during that  time.  People may have books that they used during
school, but have  not fully read, and should, or books that may not 
have been part of their  program.   I was thinking of a relatively short 
list - something  like 6-10 books that would be useful to round out a
person's knowledge of  Health Physics and also help prepare them for part 2.

The first book I  thought of is Knoll's 'Radiation Detection and
Measurement', and then  Stannard's 'Radiation and Health'.

What other books would you  recommend?

Thanks in advance,
Brian Rees, RRPT,  CHP
