Customer Reviews

Excellent resource for visual diagnosis

"A picture is worth a thousand words" certainly holds true in medicine; you can read all you want about a physical finding, but nothing clarifies better than a picture. This book has over 1300 excellent color photos of various physical findings, pathological signs, and disease markers organized into sections that correspond to the various body parts: face, mouth, arms, legs, etc. They can be perused at random or consulted by specific body part to help with a diagnosis. Atlases usually have a sparcity of text, but the author manages to squeeze in a good amount of description and related information for enhanced learning. Great for students or veteran practitioners.
