Format:Paperback
This is a great introductory book into psychiatry for medical students because it's easy to read yet somehow fills you with all the information you need. You can definetely finish this book within 2 weeks. The tables inside the books are really helpful too. One thing about the book i wasn't quite keen about is how its organized so that you read about the symptoms then you flip to the chapter with details of the specific diseases, which can be annoying at times when you can't remember whether the information you want is at the beginning or the middle of the book.
For osce, psychiatry PRN would definetely be more helpful.

Although I had my misgivings about the crash course way of separating things into presenting complaints and diseases, I was very happy with this book. It is extremely easy to read and covers everything, including pharmacology. The review questions at the end are also very useful.
Perfect for medicine finals, you won't need any other book

It's a great product, my only criticism is regarding it's design, it's rather 'tacky'.
Thank god it's content makes up for it, I would have given it 5 stars if it had have had a nicer cover, but that's just me I guess. :)
Worth buying for any medical student wanting to study psychiatry, or even a psychologist/student wanting to advance their knowledge of mental health.
