CECIL MEDICINE IS STILL THE STANDARD THIS IS A STANDARD MEDICAL TEXT. IT IS DESIGNED FOR THE MEDICAL PROFESSIONAL OR MEDICAL STUDENT. IF YOU WANT THE ANSWER TO A MEDICAL QUESTION IT IS PROBABLY HERE. IF YOU ARE NOT A MEDICAL PROFESSINAL (MD), AND WANT ANSWERS, TRY THE "HOME EDITION OF THE MERCK MANUAL". FOR A MEDICAL MANUAL (MORE COMPLEX THAT HOME EDITIONS, BUT NOT A FULL BLOWN MEDICAL TEXT BOOK), TRY THE MERCK MANUAL IT HAS BEEN A STANDARD TO 100+ YEARS. | ||
Must have for Reference This is a great book. I've used Harrison's as a required book for my school, but it is not as organized and thorough as Cecil Medicine. Cecil is gives you a clear-cut thorough anatomy, and pathophysiology, along with up-to-date treatment and interventions for each disease discussed. The set up is not like a boring medical textbook. Reading this book sparks my interest to know more about the disease I am learning. It is a heavy book, but worth it! Even the MD that was precepting me for Internal Med. highly recommended this book. | ||
Great book for medschool students Hi.... i really recommend this book for all the medschool students, it explains each disease in a very easy way to understand and learn about it, also the way it is structered helps to have a logical sequence of the disease (intro, epidemiology, physiopatology, etc). An excellent tool when becoming a Dr. | ||
Oh!!! Do I have to? I've used this textbook since the early 1970s. This newest edition is just fine. | ||
