This review is from: Physicians Desk Reference 2008: Hospital/Library Version (Physicians' Desk Reference (Pdr)) (Hardcover)

I always get each year's book....as this is THE REFERENCE BOOK by which the standard is set. You can get some great slashed prices here for a book that retails for over a $100.00
