Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Excellent!
This is a fantastic introduction to medicine and also an excellent resource for USMLE Step 2CK. It is definitely a step up from the usual review books and it requires more time to cover. However, it is still quite manageable and I enjoyed reading it. Highly recommended!



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - An Ideal Undergraduate Text
This book can definitely be recommended for all undergraduate students in Medicine. It is very colourful and this makes it very reader- friendly too. The algorithms and tables just excell and so are the diagrams which do not feature in many postgraduate texts also. The text is bold and read without eyestrain. The language is simple and eloquent. The paperback cover can be easily converted to a hardbound one.It simply supercedes Davidsons and many other undergraduate texts in Medicine.

Step 2 CK is about pathophysiology, diagnosis and principles of treatment, and you can find those issues in this book without wasting your time reading bigger books. The new ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Hail Cecil
I've been looking for a book to be a companion for me throughout medical school and beyond. It should not read like the bible nor should it be flimsy. Cecil is solid, informative and user-friendly.
