Davidson, Stanley Sir

"Davidson's 100 Clinical Cases was awarded First Prize in Medicine in the 2009 British Medical Association Medical Book Awards. This book reflects the real world in which doctors practise medicine. The selection of clinical problems guides the reader, step by step, through the correct path in the maze between the presenting complaint of a patient and the final diagnosis. The text emphasises the value of interpreting available clinical and investigative information in a logical way before considering a definitive diagnosis."--Publisher's website.

"An internationally famous and best-selling medical textbook, Davidson is renowned for providing a rational and easily understood basis for the practice of medicine. As a concise yet up-to-date and comprehensive text on clinical medicine, it has met the requirements of several generations of medical students preparing for their final examinations." "The evolution of this classic textbook continues in this Eighteenth Edition, with colour utilised to enhance the presentation of the content, while the text has been restructured and updated throughout in keeping with the expanding knowledge base of disease pathogenesis and clinical practice."--Jacket.
