"The Concise Oxford Textbook of Medicine" offers accessible, readable information on every disorder the physician is likely to encounter. It should be ideal for everyday reference, revision, general reading and preparation for examinations. Differential diagnosis and evidence-based management are detailed throughout. Bridging the gap between the "Oxford Handbooks" series and the exhaustive detail of the "Oxford Textbooks", it is international, readable, accessible, and offers balance and perspective to its subject.
