Rating: Summary: Fantastic book, would prefer it to be thinner. Review: For a first edition this book is amazing. As a medicine intern going on to second year, I too find it more useful than the Washington Manual, though the two books clearly have different purposes. As I said in the title, I wish this book were more pocketable (it fits, but is heavy). The first thing I would get rid of would be the formulary. I understand that the formulary is part of what has made the Harriet Lane book so successful, but it is a waste of space to put a formulary in a handbook of Internal Medicine.*Amin Sabet
Rating: Summary: I did not know how much I needed this book. Review: If you need a quick, authoratative review of internal medicine, and approaches to diagnosis and treatment, this is the one book to have. It not only gets you through the night, it also helps you present and discuss the case on rounds. Handy size. Not too much. Not too little. This will definitely give the Washington Manual a run for the money. My advice. Get both.
Rating: Summary: Super. 4.5 stars Review: Superb handbook on medicine. Would recommend losing the drug section (there is many pocketbooks on this area) or condense it as it is much too spread out compared to other text in the book. Much better than Washington's or Gomella's. Go get it.
