Reviews

The simple organization, the pertinent historical cues a practitioner should be looking for, the completeness of the descriptions of the physical findings, supported by the excellent graphics, makes this one of the best books on physical examination available. I highly recommend it to medical educators and medical students, residents and attendings. There is much to be learned by those at all levels of training from this well-organized, well-written book... 5 stars!
