"...a comprehensive overview of internal medicine [which] aims to provide an in-depth review of internal medicine with guidance on pathology and anatomy, clinical symptoms, and management of common illnesses. It includes figures and charts to solidify important clinical concepts.... The detailed review of common internal medicine illnesses is easy to read and provides background information, anatomic figures, charts organizing key clinical presentations, physical examination findings, and laboratory values.... a great asset for medical students, learners, and internal medicine residents.... Not only does it provide a thorough, detailed look into common diseases found in all specialties of internal medicine, but it also highlights the most important and testable items for each disease. [it] is a great resource to reinforce providers’ knowledge when encountering patients in the hospital and clinic but also to review material for exam and boards....
