Format:Paperback
This book goes through history taking, examinations, presenting patients, basic investigations - the stuff that you need as a medical student on the wards that you never feel fully competent at! It's not too detailed, but detailed enough so that you have all the info you want over a wide range of areas - all in one pocket sized book! All in all an excellent companion to the oxford handbook of clinical medicine on the wards

Key to success is doing the basics perfectly. Keep it simple. This book is superb. Read the bigger exam books but for puting it all together this is the one for the night before the clinical exams.

yeah! 5 out of 5!
24 Aug 2001
Format:Paperback
5 stars, because it is simply the best for all medical students. To be good in clinical practice you have to build a systamic way to examine any patient, this book help you to build that system! Give you outline (with explinations and some illustrations) on examination of all body systems. For all medical students who want to start their clinical years, this book should be in your pocket from the first day! repeating reading this book (which is small) will help you to master most of the clinical skills.
