Oxford Handbook of Clinical Medicine

Rezensionen / Stimmen

Created initially from a medical students final revision notes. Concise, balanced, practical and plastic-covered to repel unmentionable liquids and yet containing enough humility and humanity for its voice to be that of a supportive experienced friend rather than a critical professor. * Professor Max Watson, eHospice * Review from previous edition The bees' knees of medicine. . . A brilliant all-round book. * The Student Room * Incredibly helpful in almost all situations, information well laid out and easy to find, engaging to read ... useful asides to aid memorisation, essential algorithms/reference intervals helpfully situated on front and back inside covers; a generally excellent and clearly very well-thought-out book. * Tom Dalton, University of Birmingham, UK * I very much appreciated the very human and caring aspect it brings to clinical medicine, it's lovely to have the dry, biomedical material broken up with humorous, motivational and touching stories. * Sam Siljee, University of Otago, New Zealand * THE best book that a medical student could ever use. Everything is so easy to find, and is just enough depth for me! * Alexander Wibberley, 3rd year medical student, University of Leeds * Like many other students I use the book as a quick reference/recall and revision tool, and for that it is (for lack of a better word) perfect. Every medical student in their clinical years should own one of these, and I think most of them already do! If you don't you are missing out. * Paddy Green, almostadoctor.co.uk * I am delighted to say that this book just gets better and better and this current edition is simply superb...It acts as a brilliant and practical reference source whilst allowing the reader to dip in and out of the book for specific topics. It is well written and acts like a textbook but the information it delivers is more practical and supportive for a front-line clinician...Once read, the reader is highly informed on a current topic and can convey this information to a patient...It is excellent value for money. * Dr Harry Brown, Pavilion Health Today * An absolute classic for anyone studying medicine or working in medical profession. Small and easy to carry around, a great quick reference guide if you need it. The book is highly organised and compact making it easy to find information and is written in a way that summaries the key information without too much loss of detail. All the Oxford handbooks are great, but this one in particular is fantastic. * Amzon Review * A very good source for a quick look in action when you don't have time to sit down and properly read about a topic. A very good companion for beginners in medicine and acute medicine. * Amzon Review * Knowledge is power, and true clinical competence starts with mastering the fundamentals. While advanced clinical decision-making also relies on hands-on practice, insights from independent guidelines, and a humble approach to both learning and patient care, this pocket reference guide serves as a strong foundation for those at the beginning or mid-point of their training. I hold this book in very high esteem indeed. * Amzon Review * An absolute classic for anyone studying medicine or working in medical profession.
