worth the pocket space

I bought four new books on differential diagnosis about two months ago. I've been practising medicine for 17 years, and recently started teaching residents. Eager to be a good teacher, it was a great excuse to spend $$$$$$ on my favorite thing- books. This book was the least expensive and the most useful of the bunch, and it has won the spot in my pocket. The only drawback is that it really does not distinguish between horses and zebras. That doesn't matter much after 17 years - I recognize the horses without much effort, it is the zebras I don't want to miss!

Excellent

As a doctor i would say the book is excellent. Even though this is not a teaching book, it gives you a complet overview of all relevant DD. The book does not help you to differ, which DD are the most relevant and which are not. But if there is a question, look inside, think and you will not miss any important DD. So this is good for students as well. That much information in such a small book: 5 stars!

This book provides a wealth of useful, easily accessible inf

It really is an amazing book. The differential diagnoses are very easy to interpet, and there is a wealth of information about all the common diseases seen in a hospital setting. As already mentioned, all relevant labs and their DD are included as well. As an Internal Medicine resident, I would give it 2 thumbs up. An essential pocket book to carry around.
