Description

Containing about one-third of the images in FORBES & JACKSON'S COLOR ATLAS AND TEXT OF CLINICAL MEDICINE, the guide is designed to help you reach the right diagnosis through a well-indexed collection of presenting signs. It employs the same systems-based approach as the atlas so as to mirror the sub-specialty ward rotations that students/residents usually follow.
