5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent, 11 Mar 2002
By A Customer
This review is from: Davidson's Principles and Practice of Medicine (Paperback)
Dont be fooled by the appearance. This book is packed full of information and it is presented in a much more logical and readable way than kumar. Read kumar and u just learn a lot of facts, read Davison's and you understand medicine.

5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant, 21 Jan 2007
By Student (New Zealand) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Davidson's Principles and Practice of Medicine: With STUDENT CONSULT Online Access (MRCP Study Guides) (Paperback)
Davidson's is the best textbook of clinical medicine I have encountered. I own Kumar & Clarke as well but did not end up using it as much as i found it quite a boring read. It is detailed and structured but does not incite an interest in the subject like Davidson's does. The way information is presented in Davidson's also makes it easy to retain. And it has all the important information and the right emphasis on each topic. I also really like the EBM summaries presented in the little boxes found throughout the book. Wish I had found it earlier. Recommended for all medical students and practising doctors. I agree with the other reviewers- Davidson's is in my opinion a much better textbook than Kumar & Clarke, which I found very encyclopedic.

5.0 out of 5 stars Accessible, informative and very attractive, 7 Feb 2003
By A Customer
If you are studying clincial medicine then buy this book. You won't regret it. Your colleagues will say Kumar is bigger and better; take pity on them.
The text is hugely accessible and informative and mostly comprehensive. The page layout is excellent with very appropriate use of tables and pictures. The book is visually delightful and even has better paper quality than Kumar. Reading it is a pleasure. The only ommision is a chapter on molecular medicine which was present in the previous edition. Much of the information has been relocated to other chapters but nevertheless, the molecular basis chapter was useful for revising preclinicals. The rest of the book easily makes up for this however and greatly facilitates strong exam and viva performance
