Average Rating: 
Rating:  - I've expected a bit more...
Well, I belive that it's a bit overcomplicated. I've got the 14th edition and it is more practical. The 17th has way to many unnecesary charts, tables, however they took out a lot of important tables, guidelines wich were important. Some chapters are reduced 50% (eg. pneumonias)......I am a bit dissapointed i was expecting more.

He was in euphoria and asked me to purchase and send it to him :) He is working on his MD right now. So we discussed for a few minutes what this book entails and why he thought it was a such a great and the best book on internal medicine and he was pretty descriptive in pointing out differences between this and other books out there so I was pretty convinced at the end ...
