Product Description

Review
This new edition is teaming with colourful diagrams and meaningful tables. The book contains the closest thing I've found to an easy-to-follow list of steps for the various examinations. I would recommend buying this book.
"MAD, the official journal of Barts and The london Student's Association"

Product Description
The most important core skills for medical students to master are history taking and clinical examination. This extensively revised, eighth edition has been written with the philosophy that the acquisition of clinical skills is most effectively undertaken at the bedside. This pocketbook should be used as a companion, to be taken onto the wards and into consulting rooms where the information is most needed. The book begins with a system of history taking followed by a new chapter on the analysis of key symptoms. The remaining chapters cover physical examination of each of the major systems. Each stage of the examination starts with a detailed, step-by-step description of the examination method complemented by relevant illustrations, diagrams and tables on the facing page. This book is intended primarily for use at the outset of clinical training; once students have achieved proficiency in the basic skills of interviewing and examining, the book should also prove useful for revision.

5.0 out of 5 stars Really handy, easy to read book, 2 Feb 2006
This book is really good. Very colourful and a great size. It has everything you need to know for taking histories and examining patients on the wards. It has great extras that other clinical exam books don't have, which really help you get ahead. It presents the key knowledge in an easy to digest and relevant manner. Although it was small, i didn't feel that it was lacking in detail or missing out important knowledge. In fact, it is very comprehensive, and easy to read quickly. It avoids waffling on about rare signs you hardly see anymore. It won't give you 50 cutaneous signs of syphillis, but it would certainly get you through medical school and beyond.

(REAL NAME)   
This really is a brilliant text. It is systematic and easy to use and has been written very well - very user-friendly. It covers all important core aspects of examining patients with relevant explanations for the more complex parts of examination. Well done authors!
