Revised and updated, this text provides a foundation for learning to perform physical examination and history taking. It seeks to prompt students to ask the right questions and to understand the answers. A logical two-column format places examination procedures and proper techniques on the left, and common abnormalities and possible interpretations on the right. Illustrations are strategically placed adjacent to relevant information, and tables of abnormalities appear at the end of each chapter, enabling the reader to compare and contrast abnormal findings.

This review is from: Bates' Guide to Physical Examination & History Taking (Hardcover)
This is an excellent textbook!!! I have used this book as a student and to help prepare my student for a health assessment check off and for their test. This book has been a valued resource in my library for the past 10 years. I have purchased 3 editions of this textbook over this period of time. I highly recommend this textbook for advanced students and professional healthcare members.

A doctor without this book is missing a lot ...,
By Dr. Abdul Rehman Jami (Dr. Jami, Islamabad, Pakistan) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Bates' Guide to Physical Examination & History Taking (Hardcover)
It is a book worth keeping all the time around you, in the clinic, in the ward and everywhere. I being a homeopathic doctor felt that in the beginning the text teaching almost everything needed to hunt for the clues, symptoms and signs to pin-point the problme and later serves as a reference. This new edition has many added features along with the all previous ones. I usually didn't need to consult anyother book while using it.
