Reviews:

All my friends got this book, and even my professors talked about it, so I knew I had to get it too. I love it. I love its size, I can carry it w/ me anywhere. It has everything I need to know about the diseases, w/ pics.

Broad coverage of many topics. But information is limited and basically an outline. Good for quick review before tests or in clinic, but not a definitive source for diagnostic or treament dilemmas
