Description
This is an unique general medicine textbook for medical students and junior doctors. It covers the whole of internal medicine and will be a stimulating learning tool and revision aid for students of all ages. The chapters have been written by a relatively young team and a great deal of emphasis has been placed on making the text and artwork extremely accessible. Each organ and body system has a consistently applied colour and the structure of each chapter is the same, and reflects the systematic approach to clinical medicine.
