Nice text that I use more than any other IM text. Hey, over 100 other books reference it in their pages--enough said!
Summary: The first truly comprehensive medical textbook I've seen.
Rating: 5
I first came across this book last year when I was feverishly studying for my 4th year medical exams. What really excited me was that I could look things up in the index and actually find a paragraph or two explaining my query, no matter how obscure the reference. Textbooks like Harrisons baffle me; why would I want to spend 45 minutes looking at the ten different times my word has been mentioned when all I want to know is what it means and when its important.
Anyway I think this textbook is very well set out and thouroughly comprehensive. Obviously its not a bed-time read, but its really helpful when you're stumped by a fact in a multi-guess paper or you have some obscure fact to look up and present to your consultant.
I have no hesitation in giving it 5 stars. Right now I'm waiting on the next edition....I hope it comes in soon.
