Just what I needed! December 30, 2009

This is my favorite book to study from. It gives you the essentials to pretty much any health related problem. Ok, so it's not Harrison's book of internal medicine. But it is small enough that I can carry it without getting a hernia.
Excellent annual review. February 20, 2010

The Lange CMDT series is worth the money. Nothing in depth, but authoritative and concise. I use this text often in my teaching medical students in China.
Quick and easy February 10, 2010

This book is easy to read, diseases and conditions are summarized in a student-friendly fashion.
Mostly internal medicine. March 8, 2010
An American (Fountain Valley, CA United States)
Nice book. Mostly internal medicine. Wish it gives a more comprehensive coverage on ambulatory medicine also. I did not find much on basic surgical topics. I couldn't find stye or cold sore on the book. Either that, or maybe I just can't find it.
I use it for everything January 30, 2010

I find that I use this book to reference everything medical. It is essentially a bible to me.
