Pre-publication quotes

"I do not think it is an understatement to say that it is a
revolutionary book. It is obviously written with integrated courses
very much in mind and manages to integrate the basic sciences with
clinical information very well.... Maybe above all things, this is
a very practically orientated book and really attempts to mould the
medical student in to a very good house officer."
