easy to approach
13 May 2001
Format:Paperback
This book is so easy to approach that I have ever read. As a medical student or resident, I suggest that you must buy one like this to enhance you for understanding the use of antibiotics and some knowledge in infectious diseases. You can make a quick reference from this book and some helpful information also.

A little too much for me
2 May 2010
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
I was looking for more of a when the SHTF 'survival type' of book and this has a lot more detail than I understand. So, if I need it I'll have to get smarter about medical terms. I need more of a "Big Dummies Guide"...
