Practicity and reliable information
| Customer Rating: | | This book, not surprisingly as a Cecil's line book, is wonderful.The material is great, the figures are rich, well printed and make even more easier to comprehend what is written. The texts are very comprehensive, the subdivisions inside the book and the colorful appearance make it very practical, easy and fast to consult. I find all the answers i'm looking for, in an "uptodated" manner, based on reliable and recent articles published even at 2007, making me feel that I have reliable information and the newest scientific knowledge available in the world. I feel it is what i used to need as my Clinical medicine book. I received it in the 18th business day after my purchase, that means exactly inside the period of time i was told by "Amazon.com". |
Cecil is once agaon THE textbook of medicine
| Customer Rating: | The new Cecil (23rd edition) set a new high standard for an Internal Medicine Textbook. Up until now Harrison has been my standard textbook but with the 23rd Cecil, I have to say:" Hasta la vista, Harrison" . I have been using it for the past few weeks and I must say I am very impressed.
The quality of printing is superb; the book is filled with color figures, useful algorithms (better than UptoDate's), beautifical clinical pictures, and highly intelligent use of color text. Of course, the authors of such an important textbook are the Who's who in medicine, but the style of writing is not as condescending as Harrison's. The therapy section of each disorder is also highly practical and highly current. The use of the principle of evidence based medicine and the incorporation of treatment guidelines made this textbook highly modern. Even psychosocial oriented practitioners will enjoy the psychiatry chapter in this book: the discussion of psychopharmacology of various disorders is deep without being long-winded.
I have been using Medstudy for my board recertification, but now I am spending more time flipping through Cecil than any other Internal Medicine books. For day to day use in the clinic, UptoDate is slightly more up-to-date. But for learning and studying, Cecil is much more practical and it is an extremely good-buy. I just love those algorithms.
Drs. Goldman and Ausiello, thank you for your wonderful book. And now Harrison's editors have to try to play catch up with your excellant work. Residents will soon be quoting from Cecil's rather than Harrison's in morning round as the ultimate authority in Internal Medicine. |
cecil 23 th
| Customer Rating: | Easy to consult, the new edit. is simply fantastic.
Items 're treated no so in depth like the standard of Harrison but... each chapter of the book is a review, written by authors at the top of the scentific scene.
It's very uptodate abt the bibliograf.and the diagnostic and therapeutic approach to every problem is practical and evidence based.
I tell you, the book is ok not only for a student but for every phis. very busy in clinical practice.
I've studied internal medicine on Harrison, Kelley, Stein and some old edts of Cecil (It's with regret that Kelley and Stein disappeared probably for editorial policy) and now i can say that the new edt of Cecil is the best.
Now it will be interesting to see if the good Harrison in the next edts will change the style of the layout.....well i'm afraid yes.

More authoritative, readable and practical than Harrison's
| Customer Rating: | You may just be interested in only Harrison's and may ignor Cecil's. But if you pay some attentions and seriously consider Cecil's, I am sure you will find out a lot of superb practical chapters and approaches to patients. Many of the chapters were written by world experts and authorities. Compared with Harrison's, Cecil's may contain more world experts and authorities. Many many chapters, written by the authors from the major well known subspecialty textbooks, were excellent and easy to understand. I highly recommend this textbook to medical students, internal medicine residents and internists.
