Unique among medical texts, the Oxford Handbook of Clinical Medicine is a complete and concise guide to the core areas of medicine that also encourages thinking about the world from the patient's perspective, to develop a holistic approach to care with a passion for practice. Now in its eleventh edition, this renowned Handbook has been fully updated to reflect the latest changes in clinical practice and best management, filled with expert knowledge, practical advice, and reassurance. In the tradition of bringing new voices to each edition, three authors have joined the writing team, bringing a fresh perspective to the content. The chapters on emergencies, endocrinology and diabetes, haematology, oncology, and surgery have been completely revamped, and every page has been reviewed by a consultant and a trainee to ensure it continues to be accurate, relevant, and user-friendly. Figures and illustrations have been carefully revised and updated in response to reader feedback, and key references fine-tuned to include only the most up-to-date and pertinent. Loved and trusted by millions for almost four decades, the unparalleled Oxford Handbook of Clinical Medicine continues to be your reliable and truly indispensable companion for the practice and philosophy of modern medicine. The warmth and wisdom you will find in these pages will help you become the doctor you want to be.
Created initially from a medical students final revision notes. Concise, balanced, practical and plastic-covered to repel unmentionable liquids and yet containing enough humility and humanity for its voice to be that of a supportive experienced friend rather than a critical professor. * Professor Max Watson, eHospice *
Review from previous edition The bees' knees of medicine. . . A brilliant all-round book. * The Student Room *
Incredibly helpful in almost all situations, information well laid out and easy to find, engaging to read ... useful asides to aid memorisation, essential algorithms/reference intervals helpfully situated on front and back inside covers; a generally excellent and clearly very well-thought-out book. * Tom Dalton, University of Birmingham, UK *
I very much appreciated the very human and caring aspect it brings to clinical medicine, it's lovely to have the dry, biomedical material broken up with humorous, motivational and touching stories. * Sam Siljee, University of Otago, New Zealand *
THE best book that a medical student could ever use. Everything is so easy to find, and is just enough depth for me! * Alexander Wibberley, 3rd year medical student, University of Leeds *
Like many other students I use the book as a quick reference/recall and revision tool, and for that it is (for lack of a better word) perfect. Every medical student in their clinical years should own one of these, and I think most of them already do! If you don't you are missing out. * Paddy Green, almostadoctor.co.uk *
I am delighted to say that this book just gets better and better and this current edition is simply superb...It acts as a brilliant and practical reference source whilst allowing the reader to dip in and out of the book for specific topics. It is well written and acts like a textbook but the information it delivers is more practical and supportive for a front-line clinician...Once read, the reader is highly informed on a current topic and can convey this information to a patient...It is excellent value for money. * Dr Harry Brown, Pavilion Health Today *
