Average rating of 5/5 possible, THE best medical book out there...of all time, 2008-01-02
Guys, and gals, this book doesn't even need an introduction. Being only a 2nd year medic, I thought I'd get this now for later usuage, but it really has helped me out so much already. From the handy revision of essential anatomy and physiology for key conditions, to the layout, including advice on OSCEs, emergencies and much more, this book truly is a life saver, and should be given to every 1st year medical student, as it will benefit them for the rest of their career. What are you waiting for, buy it now, and lap it up!! Invaluable!!

Average rating of 5/5 Indispensable, 2008-05-09
Have had every edition and I still carry a copy in my bag. Anyone doing acute takes who thinks they don't need to reflect on some aspects of some cases will come to grief. I am reassured when I see junior docs carrying a well worn copy.

Average rating of 5/5 Brilliant , 2008-02-05
This new book is even better than the 6th edition as its tiny! Meaning it's even easier to put in your bag/pocket and delve into on ward rounds/acute takes when your unsure of diagnosis/what to do next!

Average rating of 5/5 Must have for med students!!, 2007-12-30
This book covers all areas of internal medicine and surgery in a clear concise way and whats more is that its easy to carry around when your on the wards. This book covers everything from aetiology, epidemiology, clinical features through to the necessary investigations and management of varying conditions. I dont actually know a medical student who doesn't own it!

Perfect for medical students for several reasons:
- Easy to carry
- Includes medical pneumonics (they make its so much easier to remember)
- concise - makes a great revision tool to test your clinical partner
- covers such a broad spectrum of topics
- the radiographs, CT images, MRI section is definately worth a read!!
- it contains evidence-based medicine with easy links to websites

...could it be any better??

Average rating of 4/5 Good reference book, 2008-12-19
I am using this book during my duty as an offshore medic and it has helped me a lot of times. Sometimes I find the information too limited, so I always utilize Google or other books I carry with me to fill certain gaps. Overall a good book to have but the Oxford Handbook of Clinical Diagnosis is needed to make this complete!
