Medicine in a Minute

Description

Winner of the Young Authors Award at the BMA book awards 2019! AND Highly Commended in the Medicine category! Here's what the BMA reviewers said: "I would unreservedly recommend this book to any medical student and indeed anyone else who wanted to learn more about internal medicine including junior doctors, nurses, physicians' assistants. I would have loved a book like this when I was a medical student." Medicine in a Minute is a new full-colour text covering the fundamentals of undergraduate medicine in one book. Medical students no longer have the time or inclination to read the huge texts that used to dominate this market - they need a concise book that covers the core information they have to know, and in a user-friendly format: Medicine in a Minute is this book! The book is edited and written by two of the authors behind the bestselling Cardiology in a Heartbeat and features several common design elements and features. It has quickly found favour with medical students and is consistently one of the bestselling medical student texts. The book is divided into body systems and then each section within the particular body system follows a consistent pattern: Definition Epidemiology Risk factors Differential diagnosis Aetiology Pathophysiology Clinical features Investigations Management Medicine in a Minute is a student-friendly, concise text that you will want close to hand throughout your studies.
