4.0 out of 5 stars It's wonderful book. Keep it up., April 15, 1999

This review is from: Harrison's CD-ROM, 14/e (CD-ROM)

I have been reading Harrison's Medicine right from my residency. Its a fabulous book one can refer to as an undergraduate or postgratuate student. However for a practitioner one would prefer to have little more stress on management details. Adding audio to CD of the same book will make it more useful.

4.0 out of 5 stars A HIGH QUALITY E-BOOK DENTED BY USE-RESTRICTIONS, May 11, 2002

By	reviewer (Zurich, Switzerland.) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Harrison's Principles of Internal Medicine, CD-ROM (CD-ROM)

HARRISON'S is synonymous with clinical books that worth their weights in gold. This 15th/ed CD-ROM maintained that tradition. It adds the much-needed portability to some 2700-paged heavyweight. However, the air-tight use-restrictions attached is simply suffocating. I wish that the publisher had relaxed a bit!
Overall though, there were compensations. The CD contents are superb: far better than what the textbook versions offer. Anyone with interest in medical science should give it a try. It is elaborate and easy to understand. The excellent chapters on pharmacology and infectious diseases are particularly worth mentioning.
