The only book that comprehensively covers infectious diseases in obstetrics and gynecology, it distills complex clinical problems in an easy to use format.

This review is from: Infectious Diseases in Obstetrics and Gynecology, Sixth Edition (Infectious Diseases in Obstetrics & Gynecology) (Hardcover)
When I have questions about matters medical, friends recommend books that are scholarly, and written in plain English, so I can understand.
This is that type of book, and its being published in the 6th edition says a lot. Reading on medical diseases can normally put me to sleep. When it's on a medical subject of interest,say on something a friend is experiencing, this book aces out any babble I'd find by "googling" and reading whatever dozen conflicting "self proclaimed experts" spout. This is what the Docs rely on to save lives, has been in print for 30 years with updates- that's more than a good enough recommendation for me.
