Textbook of Medicine

The Textbook of Medicine provides a comprehensive account of clinical medicine incorporating the language and ideas of modern medical science. The book discusses clinical medicine in the context of the growth in our understanding of the mechanisms of disease. The book is pitched at the level of the junior doctor in training while at the same time it will appeal to all medical students who desire more than a fairly synoptic account of clinical medicine as found in books like Kumar: Clinical Medicine and Davidson's Principles & Practice of Medicine. The necessity to keep fully up-to-date applies to trainee and practising physicians who are all required to maintain a satisfactory knowledge of all areas of general medicine. This book provides the level of information that this market requires. The website (new for this edition) includes additional materials - MCQs, illustrations and case studies - that are not in the book. Written by a team of 35 outstanding clinical teachers and researchers. Provides "Recent Advances" features that spotlight new scientific and medical developments. Delivers over 1,300 clear illustrations (including those on the web site). Companion website of supplementary illustrations, MCQs and case studies. The epidemiology and clinical pharmacology chapters have been deleted and the contents integrated into the system-based chapters for greater clarity. New case studies added throughout, focusing on clinical problems and common symptoms integrated with case studies and concentrating on the differential diagnosis of the problem. Re-designed text presentation with highlighting of the website index on each page. Increased use of the Recent Advances feature throughout. Further information sources highlighted throughout the text including books, journals and websites.
