Family Practice, Diseases, Internal Medicine 

The third edition of this best-selling practical handbook of clinical medicine has been redesigned to make it even easier to use, not only for fast, reliable reference under pressure -- on the ward, in the clinic, and in the lecture theatre -- but also for detailed information on general medical problems, surgery and emergencies. Now in four colors, the text has been extensively revised and updated, including two completely new chapters on oncology and radiology and a separate easy-to-use emergency section. Blank pages provide ample space for readers' notes and the update boxes published in the British Medical Journal (also available by fax and electronic mail). This pocket-sized handy reference, familiar to countless readers, is packed with facts and practical advice in an easily accessible format, making it an essential, reliable companion for every doctor. - from Amzon
