2.0 out of 5 stars Malpractice on paper, June 17, 2005
This review is from: Emergency Medicine: Pearls of Wisdom: Oral Board Review (Paperback)
I purchased the 3rd edition, but I can only assume the 2nd was no better. This book was literally filled with mistakes. The authors thoughtfully provided a disclaimer in the introduction that the content was not to be considered as practice guidelines. This proved true as many of the entries were not only outdated, but many times wrong. Following their recommendations would lead to malpractice. The only value of this book is stimulating you to recognize their many mistakes. This book is not worth the paper it's printed on and obviously reflects that the editors either had no time to actually proof-read the material or don't know how to practice medicine in this or the last century.

This review is from: Emergency Medicine: Pearls of Wisdom: Oral Board Review (Paperback)
this is better than rivers by far-44 cases that you do with another person acting as the examiner, or do half as the examiner & half as the candidate, with a friend who is also studying for the orals-rivers is ok, but this more accurately simulates the exam process & has enough repetition that is becomes second nature-they especially look for the picky details that are easy to overlook & presumably a big part of your score in the real thing-i recommend both rivers & pearls, but this has a higher yield
