Doody's Review
Score: 94/100
Stars: 4
"This book provides an excellent, valuable contribution to the area of internal medicine. When compared to much larger references like Harrison's Principles of Internal Medicine, 21st Edition, Loscalzo et al. (McGraw-Hill, 2023) the reviewed book is much simpler and more clinically based, which makes it a much better reference for patient care at the point of care. As a later edition, the updates provide enough justification for replacement of previously published editions due to changes in treatment protocols, new options for medication therapy, and other recent developments in internal medicine. Therefore, this book continues to be an essential and practical reference for both residents and working clinicians looking for clear, concise assistance in the care of their patients."
