4.0 out of 5 stars
Concise, Useful Primer,
By BBlair (Washington State) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Developing Clinical Problem-Solving Skills: A Guide To More Effective Diagnosis And Treatment (Norton Medical Books) (Paperback)
I am currently re-reading this book as part of a process of rejuvenating and re-organizing the way I approach clinical thinking because I found it so valuable the first time through. The information is laid out in an organized, logical fashion that does encourage you to engage with the clinical situations that are presented. I believe that this book would be particularly useful for a student in their first 2 years of medical school, during that critical period when a future physician is laying the foundation of their cognitive approach to diagnosis and treatment.
This kind of linear process is not all of the story, however. I would recommend balancing this book with Jerome Groopman's "How Doctors Think" for an excellent exploration of the non-linear aspects of clinical thought.
