I love this book - it gives each subject area a good review of the relevant anatomy, physiology etc, before covering the core conditions (comprehensively too!), then gives MCQs, EMI's, Data interpretation (i.e. X-rays etc), and viva questions... and then (wait for it!) It gives a full explanation of the answer if you didn't solve it correctly! Wow! I read a chapter, went on a ward-round and was able to answer all the questios correctly. If only this had been around when I did my junior medicine firms! Keep your revision simple with this book, and it will provide you with an ideal springboard for tacking on extra knowledge later.... Buy it-or beware!
The only other books are the 'Crash-course' series, but I find they presume knowledge and miss out lots of vital facts, which this book appears to cover. Also this book is written by Professors/lecturers and consultants from Machester University - so it is applicable to UK Medical Schools, and targets the MBBS courses.

I used this book for the written exam in finals (along with Surgery 1 & 2 and pharmacology of the same series, Medicine at a glance, Surgical talk, and for the clinical exam I used those little Pastest books - medical and surgical finals) I think Master Medicine is fantastic, getting the breadth and depth right, with the aim of improving understanding to ease the burden of tedious list-learning (which is required to an extent). So if you start early and have the time, this is a good book to build the foundations with - otherwise you might just want to go straight for the lists.
And don't ignore the self assessment sections! The series adds information not found in the rest of the chapter in the assessment bits.

Undoubtedly this is an excellent aid to all medical students. Core knowledge is highlighted in a clever and logical way. It is s very important for a medical student to know what is important to know. Personally i hate large textbooks that confuse you and make you feel lost. Highly recommended for undergraduate students and junior doctors!
Listmania!
