Product Description

GKT Gazette
"A new edition of a classic has hit the bookshelves...[and] it doesn't appear to have lost any of its magic - dare I say it may have become even better...This handbook is still packed with facts and brilliantly laid out, making it one of the best quick reference texts around...The authors have clearly not rested on their laurels - the many improvements keep this medical student favourite on the 'essential' list, and give it that competitive edge to maintain its prime position in the
medical student pocket."

Review
If you buy one book in medical school, make it the Oxford Handbook of Clinical Medicine. (Oxford Medical School Gazette )

...only stethoscopes and hand gel match its ubiquity in hospital...[it] remains a medical classic. It moves with the ever-changing landscape of medicine, reminding us why we are all here, what we have learnt, and how much further we have to go. It is, in short, a guiding star. (BMJ )

The seventh edition and 21st birthday says it all. (BMA Medical Book Competition 2007 )

5.0 out of 5 stars Get You Through Life, 23 Feb 2005
This review is from: Oxford Handbook of Clinical Medicine (Oxford Handbooks Series) (Turtleback)
This is the internationally renowned, megatastic book to beat all books when it comes to doing your job as a doctor. It has all the prerequisites necessary; it's concise, it has all the information you need to identify , and manage all manner of complaints and all in a pocket size book. Other books sit on the shelf and gather dust whereas this will stick with you for your formative years when you are still figuring out the gaps in your education. Nothing else will ever come close except for a new edition perhaps.

5.0 out of 5 stars The best ever, a must have, 29 Jul 2007
By Uenna (London) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)   
This 7th edition of OHCM, while retaining the much loved concise and essence of the previous editions has been greatly revised, improved and updated. It contains a new chapter on radiology, new information on how to handle common calls and a wider coverage of medications and doses, clinical skills and surgery. The best feature has to be the integrated colour illustrations with pictures and cartoons; and tons of radiographs, CT images, MR1 images etc. The layout is very reader friendly. This is an invaluable study aid for plab and all medical exams. It also has a PDA version, and web links from the book for instant access to evidence based clinical information. This is a must have and if you have a previous edition it is worth the upgrade.

5.0 out of 5 stars Must have for med students!!, 30 Dec 2007
By Ms. R. Parwaiz (Leicester) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This book covers all areas of internal medicine and surgery in a clear concise way and whats more is that its easy to carry around when your on the wards. This book covers everything from aetiology, epidemiology, clinical features through to the necessary investigations and management of varying conditions. I dont actually know a medical student who doesn't own it!

Perfect for medical students for several reasons:
- Easy to carry
- Includes medical pneumonics (they make its so much easier to remember)
- concise - makes a great revision tool to test your clinical partner
- covers such a broad spectrum of topics
- the radiographs, CT images, MRI section is definately worth a read!!
- it contains evidence-based medicine with easy links to websites

...could it be any better??
