Everyone gave me honors, and it was literally all because of this book... GET THIS BOOK!" **** [four stars] "... Highly distilled, has quick easy-to-read facts/pearls, and leaves out the crud. I lost mine but I am constantly wanting to go back and review it. I may just buy it again, even though I am done with my Medicine rotation and I am pursuing Surgery." ***** [five stars] "Gives you the key facts about many diseases... information that will help you answer questions during rounds and on exams... It's easy to get through, which is important since there's so much to learn during the Internal Medicine rotation (and not enough time!)" ***** [five stars] "Perfect for MSIIIs starting their IM Clerkship; it is also great for Step 2 review and the Medicine Shelf."
