Davidsons Principles and Practice of Medicine won an award at the Royal Society of Medicine 2007 Medical Book Awards. Described as "Beautifully constructed with superb clarity of style - Davidson's continues to provide for students, doctors and other health professionals a sound basis for the practice of medicine." Davidson's is chiropractor Dr Norman Marzalek's choice for the most useful medical text on his shelf. This internationally famous and best-selling textbook of general medicine is renowned for providing a rational and easily understood basis for the practice of clinical medicine. Medical texts of yesterday were often unpalatable and user unfriendly, but Davidson's is refreshingly lavish with a colorfully decorated visual text. Extensive tables, crib boxes, MRI and x-ray accompany each chapter. The book's clear organization and color-coded chapters make it simple to find just the information you need, when you need it.
