Summary: Cecil Textbook of Medicine
Comment: My first Textbook of Medicine was purchased way back in 1971. Since then, I update regularly, and feel the older editions are still useful so keep them along with the latest edition. I find this compendium of medical information absolutely critical for the health professional as well as for the well-educated health consumer. I am now in the process of purchasing the latest edition for the library of the local health department for which I consult. The various sections are written and edited by top professionals in their respective fields and may not be easily understandable to the non-physician, but for those looking for accurate information on a variety of infectious, chronic, hereditary, etc. illnesses, it is well worth the extra effort. For those who are not physicians, the purchase of a good medical dictionary to be used concurrently with this book is probably a wise idea.

Summary: CECIL'S FLEXIBILITY IS MILES AHEAD
Comment: Dedicated to health since 1927, Cecil Textbook of Medicine is like wine: the longer you indulge in it, the more captivating it becomes. This 21st edition on CD-ROM exhibits Cecil's wealth of experience in a manner that will make its contemporaries to sulk with envy. It is not just the best in terms of providing succinct information, but also in terms of contents organisation. This CD-ROM remains the 'numero uno' multimedia Textbook of Medicine if flexibility of use is your priority.
The only minus this book has is that it is not as thorough (in scope) as Kelley's text is.

Summary: Cecil
Comment: I first bought this book in Medical School and I still use it almost every week after 14 years. It is thorough and consise-- provides a bit of theory and a lot of practical information in a scholarly style. If youre a reader, get this book-- you may find yourself reading a reference book in your spare time. I would like to go to a physician who used Cecil Medicine as a reference. If youre not a natural reader, forget it and just buy the latest copy of the Washington Manual.
