On Oxford Handbook for Medical School: '"...a great summation of the information needed to succeed in medical school. Had this been available to me when I was starting medical school, it would have saved me hours of research online to find the answers" * Recently graduated medical student * On Oxford Handbook for Medical School: '"...would definitely be useful for those who are yet to start and for those in their training already. I would have bought the book before medical school, but would definitely recommend it" * Current Medical Student * On Oxford Handbook for Medical School: '"I would highly recommend this book as it does contain a lot of information which I wished I knew in earlier years of medical school." * Final Year Medical Student * Oxford Handbook of Clinical Medicine: "The bees' knees of medicine. . . A brilliant all-round book." * The Student Room * Oxford Handbook of Clinical Medicine: "Incredibly helpful in almost all situations, information well laid out and easy to find, engaging to read ... useful asides to aid memorisation, essential algorithms/reference intervals helpfully situated on front and back inside covers; a generally excellent and clearly very well-thought-out book." * Tom Dalton, University of Birmingham, UK * Oxford Handbook of Clinical Medicine: "I very much appreciated the very human and caring aspect it brings to clinical medicine, it's lovely to have the dry, biomedical material broken up with humorous, motivational and touching stories." * Sam Siljee, University of Otago, New Zealand * Oxford Handbook of Clinical Specialties: "This new edition of the Oxford Handbook of Clinical Specialties may appear small in size but don't underestimate it. ... [ This] is an essential component of any medical student's bookshelf and will be very useful in guiding you through the main clinical specialties." * Lucy Faulkner, Northwing * On Handbook of Clinical Specialties"Applying humanism as the basis of delivering medical care, the reward for the physician and proven healing effect for the patient becomes evident. I found this focus delightful and worthy of every physician's consideration... They consistently encourage sympathy and compassion in the many types of patient interactions primary care providers will face and the reward this brings in a career that encompasses patient care from conception to end of life. The authors mine their experience for rich, authoritative insights into these many aspects of medicine." * Doody's Notes, April 2013 *
