Rating:  - Gold Mine of Information
I love this book! It has everything that a medical/PA student would need for rotations in a simple but compact format. Concise and to the point with all of the important facts you need to know, whether you are a medical/PA student or out working in the real world. Small enough to fit in your pocket. This is the book that I am recommending to any medical students that I work with. Great book!
Rating: - Keep this handy, though maybe not in your coat pocket.
This is a great book for surgical rotations and internships. It's well written and succinct. Overall, I like the size of it because it's easy to thumb through and find what you need, but it's a little bigger than what I would like to carry in my pocket.

If you are a medical student interested in surgery, then I highly recommend using this book along with another more rudimentary handbook such as Boards and Wards or Surgical Recall. It is good to start getting used to this book ... Read More
