 Pocket Medicine: The Massachusetts General Hospital Handbook of Internal Medicine (Pocket Notebook Series) November 22, 2008
Totally worth getting. I bought a used one, in good condition and I love how it breaks doen the needed information clinically. I was pleased with the content and the condition of the book. I would recommend it for students even after having the PDA program's out there. I use if often.
 Reliable information when you need it November 17, 2008
Very good book to keep close at hand. Valuable information when you need it. Not to detailed but this is what I like. Hits the stuff you need to know in a hurry. You can always go back for more details in our texts.
A must for Medicine rotation! October 30, 2008
This new edition has a very helpful color side index on right side of pages making it easier to find things more quickly. You'll need this book for your white coat. Good carry around pocket Medicine rotation review book.
Great resource June 19, 2008
This is a great pocket resource for both medical students and residents. The pages now have titles across each page and sections are broken down into individual subjects as compared to the previous (blue) version.
Must have for medical students May 6, 2008

Although the expectations for medical students are not that of residents and interns, this book is very helpful. Evidence-based medicine is the term heard over and over on the wards and this pocket book will help with that. When presenting a patient, you may be asked which study showed the effectiveness of which treatment. This book has it. It is updated with references as recent as 2007 which is impressive. It will also save time when preparing a talk because as mentioned, the landmark studies are all incorporated in the text. Worth upgrading from the 2nd edition.
