Unique among medical texts, the Oxford Handbook of Clinical Medicine serves as a comprehensive and concise guide to essential areas of medicine.

This eleventh edition has been meticulously updated to reflect the latest advancements in clinical practice and management, offering a wealth of expert knowledge and practical advice.
The latest edition of the Oxford Handbook of Clinical Medicine introduces three new authors who bring fresh insights to the content, enhancing its relevance and accessibility. Key chapters, including those on emergencies, endocrinology, hematology, oncology, and surgery, have undergone significant revisions. Each chapter has been reviewed by both consultants and trainees to ensure accuracy and user-friendliness, addressing the needs of modern practitioners.
Beloved by millions for nearly four decades, the Oxford Handbook of Clinical Medicine remains an indispensable resource for anyone involved in the practice and philosophy of medicine. With updated figures, illustrations, and key references tailored to current standards, this handbook not only provides reassurance but also inspires healthcare professionals to become the doctors they aspire to be, fostering a deep commitment to patient care.
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 *
