Product Description
Review
I am writing to say how much I enjoyed reading Symptoms and Signs in Clinical Medicine. It is clear, beautifully illustrated, and it admirably fulfils the objective of being instructive. I wish it had been available when I was a student, but that was a long time ago. (DL October 2001 )
I remember how it felt as a medical student coming to the ward for the first time. Your head is full of anatomy, biochemistry and the like but the challenge from now on will be a real patient-with symptoms, social circumstances and signs. What you need is a friendly and reliable guide. Failing a senior colleague with ample time, Gray and Toghill's Introduction to Symptoms and Signs in Clinical Medicine will serve the purpose very well. A good aspect of this book is that all the chapters are short and the subheadings are frequent. Besides, there are numerous boxes named revision panels and practical-points boxes that highlight the most important not-to-forget principles; and lots of diagrams and pictures accompany the text. Although Gray and Toghill's book may not be as comprehensive as some of the academic classics on clinical examination, it is more practical and memorable. Clearly the authors know how students feel and what they look for. (Journal of the Royal Society of Medicine )

Product Description
'An Introduction to the Symptoms and Signs of Clinical Medicine' has been conceived as the medical companion to Browse's hugely successful 'Introduction to the Symptoms and Signs of Surgical Disease'. Like Browse, it concentrates on the fundamental techniques of history taking and examination, restricting itself to common conditions likely to be seen in everyday practice.
The changes in undergraduate curricula in the UK and overseas medical schools have opened up a niche for a 'hands-on' clinical skills book which takes a symptom-oriented approach. This book, with its emphasis on core topics and common conditions will be an invaluable resource for all medical students.
Written in an accessible and concise style, 'An Introduction to the Symptoms and Signs of Clinical Medicine' includes practical 'stop and think' boxes for the reader. These include revision panels, practical points and symptom checklists. Red 'warning flags' are used to indicate critical situations.
