Editorial Reviews
Review
`Review from previous edition Finally the new edition has arrived and in short it's brilliant.' Northwing (Sheffield Medical School Magazine) June 2004
`This bad boy, chummily referred to as the "salt'n'vinegar" does exactly what it says on the packet, delivering all the specialties you will encounter in life as a clinical medical student. ... OHCS is concisely planned and organised, with a fantastic index. The wonderful dangly book-mark bits are there as ever, and OHCS is also usefully cross-referenced with the cheese'n'onion. ... I cannot over-emphasise how helpful this book is during our specialty blocks in 4th and 5th years. Highly recommended.' SURGO, Glasgow University Medical Journal
`... an invaluable quick reference guide, either as a reminder of a condition or for more detailed facts... This is a book that has stood, and will no doubt continue to stand the test of time.' Cambridge Medicine
`For less than the price of a slap-up meal out, you too can be the proud owner of the OHCS - a bargain if ever I saw one.' Dr JM Sager --This text refers to an alternate Paperback edition.

Exelent choice for the all-days,
By Husz András (Budapet, HUNGARY) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Oxford Handbook of Clinical Specialties (Medicine) (Paperback)
All the content - data and tables - are worth for all money. It is easy to use, many things to find, and with the Oxford Handbook of Clnical Medicine they are the best clinical guides for the hard days. No other handbook is as useful at bedside.
