Rating: Summary: A GREAT HOME REFERENCE AS WELL Review: As long as you have a nominal understanding of medicine and medical terminology, this book is well worth the price. As a matter of fact, it is priceless! Ever have a doctor scribble out a prescription and hand it over to to you without even telling you what it is, or does? Sure you have, we all have. With the PDR you can look it up and decide for yourself if you should seek a second opinion. Some doctors make a living just selling useless (and sometimes dangerous) medications. Moreover, if you know what medication someone is taking (especially if you know the dosage), you can look it up in the PDR and figure out whats really wrong with them. Therefore, this is a good text for lawyers and those who work in law enforcement as well. The PDR also functions as a primer on medicine and the US health care delivery system. And don't forget, this was Elvis' favorite book!
Rating: Summary: The Physicaians' Standard Review: If you are a med student, intern, resident, or practicing physician this book is an absolute must. Great for biomed scientists and people with a general interest in medicine also.
