Summary: The best quick medicine reference!
Comment: This is by far THE best quick reference for the Internal Medicine resident and the med student on a medicine rotation. I'm about to order my 3rd copy. It beats the Wash Manual hands down, because it ALWAYS has what I'm looking for - differential diagnosis, pertinent clinical findings and lab values, and treatment. I especially like the section on differential diagnosis of abnormal lab values (what else causes peripheral eosinophilia besides asthma?). And, if you truly want to add extra weight to your lab coat and make your shoulders ache even more than they already do, this does fit in your pocket (Wash manual doesn't)!

Summary: Buy this Book!
Comment: By far and away the best book for the fleging internal medicine resident or even a 4th year student. The "subtleties" of medicine is clearly not the goal of a labcoat reference such as this. Rather, it is a reasonably comprehensiive, easily accessible, and up-to-date guide for day to day decision making on the wards. It does not replace Harrison's, and it won't make you a brilliant physician, but for quick reminders of everyday resident level problems, it's hard to beat. It's actually quite easy to see why it's better than the prosaic and vague Washington Manual (Yawn).

Summary: Essential for all medicine residents
Comment: For medical students,interns and residents who are rotating through general medical wards, this book provides concise and reasonably up to date information on common ailments encountered. It is a quick and brief way to review the mainpoints of disease (differential diagnosis, workup, treatment etc)on your way to morning report or before attending rounds. I found it easier to read than the washington manual.
Another plus is its compact size that can easily fit into your labcoat pocket and can therefore be available on the wards, on call and while sitting through lectures.
It is not, of course, a replacement to the Harrison's text--but who can carry harrison's around with them everyday??
