Certainly good but..., 5 Jan 2003
By Rheumor - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Primer on the Rheumatic Diseases (Paperback)
...getting too long. This was one of the most useful little books a med student could hope for, a really concise look into a single subject area. I used it for my 4th year elective, then the next edition for my Rheum rotation as a PGY-II, and then throughout Fellowship. I give the latest edition to each med student who rotates through our Rheum clinic, but I find they are less and less impressed by it as the size of the Primer approaches that of a textbook. The information is still excellent, but I think it's getting too big for the niche it has always occupied. If you really want that much info, buy the latest Kelley.

Definitely worth having if you're interested in Rheumatology, 27 Jan 2006
By Michael M. Halassa "mhalassa" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Primer on the Rheumatic Diseases (Paperback)
In medical school, rheumatology is one of those subjects that most medical students cannot really conceptualize and end up memorizing a list of autoimmune diseases along with their specific antibodies. This book has the potential to change this view.
I read this book while doing a Rheumatology rotation during my senior year and at the time it was considered the Rheumatology Bible by the attendings. For me, this book has been the best place to understand both the biological basis of rheumatic diseases and the clinical application of that knowledge.
This book is for anyone who is interested in understanding Rheumatic Diseases on a deeper level. I think such understanding is essential to any internist regardless of what his or her subspeciality is.

NICE BOOK WITH PRACTICAL ORIENTATION, 29 Jan 2003
By reviewer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Primer on the Rheumatic Diseases (Paperback)
Embellished with colourful figures and tables, this "Primer on the Rheumatic Diseases" handled general rheumatology in way that would appeal to both clinicians and students. Its practical orientation include the diagnosis and management of all sorts of rheumatic disorders.It familiarizes its reader with the different patterns of disease progression, before offering diagnostic and therapeutic options. It is a fine book, whose coverage of physiotherapy and pain assessment are more than satisfactory.
