User’s Reviews

This is the most extensive medicine textbook available currently in the market. Even though such big books do not make much sense in today’s situation where we need to keep ourselves updated with latest literature, this will be useful as a reference for clinical medicine.

As a medical student just a few years ago (let us not count how many ), I used Davidson’s Principles of Medicine as my “brief” one and Harrison as my bible. As new editions emerged, I have now digressed to the Oxford 3-volume giant for the latter. This book has as much detail and precision as regards medical facts as you can get anywhere – the proviso is of course, the size: 3 volumes around 5000 pages. Having said that, there is a full contents list (together with respective volume numbers), and a full index in all three volumes, so it is not as wieldy to manouevre as you might think at first glance.
