Media Reviews
A must-have for any clinical medical student: useful for most exams and up to and including finals. Sharp, St Georg'e s Medical School Gazette, May 2005 Compared to other textbooks, this book feels less wordy and more direct, yet is not so concise that the message and understanding is lost...it provides a good introduction, has a good balance between text and images, and covers many systems, thus being suitable for students throughout the clinical years.
