Reflecting the state of the art in medical practice, this edition delivers the latest strategies for understanding, diagnosing and managing disease.
"This edition continues the book's long history of excellence in documenting the current understanding of human normal and pathophysiology..The book is for anyone who has the remotest association with the practice of medicine, be they internists, surgeons, nurses, technical staff, or counselors. This is the authority, and in a time of readily available but not always accurate information, this is the one source that can be relied upon...One of the highlights is a CD-ROM with supplemental graphs, photographs, videos and summaries. Yet, this CD does not detract from the full-color photographs in the book, the comprehensive tables and color figures, the definitions of terms, advice for further in-depth readings, and references...This is one of the absolute pillars of any medical library. It is the final word in internal medicine and we all owe a debt of gratitude to the editors and contributors who have created this extraordinary authority in medicine. 5 Stars!--Doody's Review Service Doody's 20081118 "The work of hundreds of contributors and renowned editors has made the 17th edition of Harrison's outstanding...Essential."--Choice Choice 20080901
