Review

“This book has all the essential information that a primary physician needs, relating to history taking and physical examination of patients, as well as developing a positive and effective relationship with them based on mutual understanding. It is well organized, with textual and visual materials including high-quality boxes, charts, drawings, micrographs, photos, and tables. You’ll also find tabs on page edges to quickly refer to something. At the end of this book, you will find a References and Readings section for deeper studying of abnormalities, anomalies, conditions, diseases, and disorders. You will also find a Glossary to under the meanings of unfamiliar terms or get the exact meanings of familiar terms.” ~Nano Khilnani

This textbook is not easy to study systematically. Poor grammar and organization in my opinion. I would not buy this textbook if it was not required for class.

There is an error in the book on p.270 where the pictures of pectus carinatum and pectus excavatum are incorrectly labeled. Errors like this make me wonder if anything else in the text is wrong. As a student, I don’t want to learn abnormalities incorrectly. The only reason I caught this was because my son has one of these chest abnormalities.

disappointed that if you want the access to the online portion you have purchase that also for another 45 dollars. It is not clear that it is not included with this book. Very disappointed!!!
Had I known I would have just spent the 45 dollars and used the online book with the extra online information.
