We’re pleased to introduce you to the OEPF iBook edition of a classic textbook in our field, Applied Concepts in Vision Therapy (ACiVT). The popularity of the book resulted in OEPF periodically running out of the print edition, necessitating back orders. Obviously the new iBook version obviates the need for print runs, and was anticipated in the preface to the Preface to the OEP Edition in 2008 which notes: “The material in the text will be updated through Internet-based communications rather than new print editions.”
International enthusiasts can also buy the iBook and receive it instantaneously, obviating shipping delays.
The iBook OEPF edition of ACiVT is a joint venture of OEPF and Ridgevue Publishing. Ridgevue specializes in iBook productions with over a dozen optometry-related titles, and is managed by Mark Bullimore, MCOptom, PhD, FAAO. Dr Bullimore is former editor of Optometry and Vision Science, the journal of the American Academy of Optometry.
