Über diesen Titel

Inhaltsangabe

A textbook of general (or internal) medicine, the nineteenth edition marks the fiftieth anniversary of the first publication of the book. Medicine is a dynamic biological disciplines: while the basic principles remain unaltered, current practice continually undergoes exponential change. In each new edition of "Davidson's Principles & Practice of Medicine", the aim is to reflect this transformation, whilst at the same time continuing the tradition of providing a concise, yet up-to-date and comprehensive text on clinical medicine. The text is useful for doctors preparing for postgraduate qualifications such as the MRCP value Davidson as a core text, and a large number of general practitioners, nurses, pharmacists and other health-care professionals. In this latest edition the formation of the International Advisory Board, a panel of 27 distinguished academics and clinicians from 12 countries, has led to significant input to the content of the book to reflect differences in disease patterns and clinical practice around the world.

Críticas

The textbook has come a long way since the first edition in 1952 but remains true to its original ideals. One of the most praiseworthy features is the double-page spread on clinical examination preceding each of the systems. It has many strenghts, clear and logical layout, pithy and relevant information (with plenty of information boxes to highlight the most salient points), well-chosen photographs and beautiful illustrations. You will continue to gaze longingly thorugh the bookshop window until you have a copy of your own. Edinburgh Medics, a Res Medica supplement courtesy of the Royal Medical Society, July 2005
