Summary
Starting life in the early 1980s as handwritten notes to help the authors get through their junior doctor years, the Oxford Handbook of Clinical Medicine is now the world's bestselling pocket medical handbook. This 7th edition retains the much-loved essence of the original, but has been updated and improved with a whole host of new features. There is a new chapter on radiology; new information on consent and how to handle common calls; and greater coverage of medications and doses, clinical skills and surgery. Maintaining its status as the only choice for junior doctors and medical students, the OHCM is just what the doctor ordered. Book jacket.
