Designed to highlight important
teaching points, this book is an invaluable tool for physicians in training and clinicians preparing for certification or recertification in internal medicine, or medical
clerkship review. It contains 173 cases with 287 color images and ABIM-type multiple-choice review questions, answers, and explanations. The authors present cases as unknowns in random order, mirroring examination and clinical practice conditions. For specialty-specific review, an innovative chain-referencing system links cases throughout the book based on specialty classifications. A detailed index allows the reader to find particular cases or images by topic.
Material poorly organized and lots of key images not included. Disappointed. Check out instead First Aid for the Internal Medicine Boards, ISBN 0071421661, published by McGraw-Hill Medical.
The content is superb, immages a unique variety and quality usually not seen in a reference book in this price category. Since so many of the images are
wounds it is a "must have" for hospital
