Oxford Handbook of Clinical Medicine

The Oxford Handbook of Clinical Medicine covers all areas of internal medicine and provides rapid, on-the-spot access to evidence-based clinical management. Its characteristic style - combining incisive guidance with wit, a lucid style, and memorable epigrams - has been popular with generations of medical students and junior doctors the world over. There are a host of new features in this edition: new sections on common acute medical symptoms, and clinical skills; a new 'cheat sheet' on commonly used drugs; more colour Plates, and more ECGs. There are numerous other updates and improvements throughout, many suggested by extensive market research. The pages have been redesigned in full colour. A new junior coauthor has ensured that the text is just right for its market and tells medicine 'as it is'; and a panel of senior readers has approved every section. The OHCM is an utterly reliable 'friend in the pocket', any time of the day or night!
