This book is a great concise reference book- you can dip in and out of it very easily, and each topic is very clearly indicated so you don't get lost in the tool print or run into finding a topic, only not to be able to decipher it because it relies on a preamble 20 pages long... None of that here. 2 pages per topic and you're done...
It covers both conditions as well as treatments- something...
This is the second time I have bought this book. I lent it to a friend and never got it back. I have found it invaluable for my MSc and my friend found it a great help for her BSc (obviously!). I highly recommend it to anyone who needs to be able to critically appraise medical literature.
An absolutely vital handbook that helped me significantly through medical school. Although it's nowhere near as comprehensive as separate textbooks are, it's an invaluable aide memoir that does go into significant detail.
I have found this book to be an extremely useful guide for a rapid and comprehensive review of clinical presentations often encountered in general practice.I believe it is also a very useful aid to help one prepare for the MRCGP examination.Highly recommended.
This is an absolutely superb dictionary and it's 'colour' element really helps with finding entries and makes it all a little more interesting! Headings are all written in red with descriptions in black and there are a few illustrations - but only where necessary. Incidentally the 'hardback' is actually a soft, tactile, plastic which makes it lighter and somehow much more pleasing to hold! Would...
This book has been an invaluable resource for general medical study since my 3rd year of medical school. It is comprehensive, easy to read, with excellent pictorials. It is visually easy on the eye and allows easy reference for study. I would recommend it for any medical student from 3rd year onwards and for use in the early years of a medical career.
This book is a must have for all medical students entering their clinical years. Read it early! I only discovered the gems contained within this book when my OSCE's were approaching as it had been collecting dust on the shelf and I was kicking myself that I hadn't read it earlier. Plenty of pictures and illustrations to clarify the procedures.
Impey is definately worth purchasing. I have just come towards the end of my obs and gynae attatchment, and have been using it for a week, and wish i'd started earlier! It's definately concise, and probably readable cover to cover in a week if you push yourself. I normally never use/buy textbooks or consolidate my learning like I should, and after panicking at the thought of my upcoming exams brought...
This book is an excellent addition to the ever-popular Oxford Handbook series. It has all the usual stuff that you'd expect in a clinical examination book, but it also includes detailed coverage of many essential practical procedures (e.g. ABG) and has good sections on psychiatry and paeds. Medical ethics even make a brief appearance. In addition, there is a large data interpretation chapter which...
I found this book extremely useful in my preparation for GPST Stage 2. The book is entirely focussed on single best answer MCQs and covers all the important topics. This makes it ideal to revise in a systematic and thorough manner. I would recommend it to anyone who wants to do some serious revision and be at the top of their game.
