For decades Harrison's Essentials
of Medicine has been the most relied on reference in internal medicine
- it's been said that if you understand the first 80 pages of Harrison's
you understand the basics of medicine. Sort of like what they said
about syphilis in the 1800s.
Everyone in the medical field knows it is impossible to have all
the answers all the time. In critical situations, a professional
needs to be able to find those answers quickly and that's why Harrison's
Manual of Medicine is the world's best-selling internal medicine
guide.
Now all of that knowledge is even more accessible because Harrison's
is available for handheld devices.
