Great resource

Great item to include in your library. Just a little on the dull side- no sexy pictures or anything...

Supervising Physician says this is the one to have!

The SP I'm with told me this has an answer for almost all my questions. He refers to it frequently himself-- a very good reference!

A one stop shop for medical information.

You will not find a more complete and comprehensive medical resource. This book tackles every disease I can think of.
