5.0 out of 5 stars Really Good, Mar 2 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Bates' Guide to Physical Examination and History Taking (Hardcover)

Could there be a better way to put phsyical exam in a book? The pictures are great and the step by step approach is great for people just learning the physical exam or people that need to brush up on specific aspects of an exam.

4.0 out of 5 stars Just there is no better book yet, Feb 16 2002

This review is from: Bates' Guide to Physical Examination and History Taking (Hardcover)

This book is good just because I could not find any better book.
It has good colored pictures but pictures are for extere pathologies, there is not much practical pictures. What is also missing is key observations. Yes there are some warnings for key observations but not enough. observations that are in the margins of the book should be the scope of the book. Explanations are very broad, for example says "look for asymetry or discoloratio, etc but it does not say very often than what. it helps for note taking but does not help much for diagnostics.there are some tables that guides you but those tables are very extensive.May be I was expecting more that what it should be.

This review is from: Bates' Guide to Physical Examination and History Taking (Hardcover)

This is an excellent textbook!!! I have used this book as a student and to help prepare my student for a health assessment check off and for their test. This book has been a valued resource in my library for the past 10 years. I have purchased 3 editions of this textbook over this period of time. I highly recommend this textbook for advanced students and professional healthcare members.
