Nominated for 2011 BMA Book Awards, this title is highly commended in medicine. More than two million medical students, doctors and other health professionals from around the globe have owned a copy of "Davidson's Principles and Practice of Medicine". Today's readers rely on Davidson's to provide up-to-date detail of contemporary medical practice, presented in a style that is concise, beautifully illustrated and easy to read. Davidson's not only provides all of the factual knowledge required to practice medicine, but also explains it in the context of underlying principles, basic science and research evidence, and shows the reader how to apply their knowledge to manage patients who present with problems rather than specific diseases.

Empfehlung für Studenten und Ärzte / Recommended for students and physicians alike

Davidson's Medicine ist eins der verlässlichsten Werke, die es im Bereich der Medizin gibt. Gut verständlich, mit ausgezeichneten Illustrationen und Tabellen, gibt es nicht nur Studenten sondern auch erfahrenen Ärzten fundierte und detaillierte Informationen über nahezu sämtliche Bereiche der Medizin. Auch Hintergründe und Diskussionen neuerer Erkenntnisse fließen in die Beschreibung der Erkrankungen ein, so dass man die große Kompetenz der Verfasser sofort erkennen kann. Es basiert auf der britischen Medizin, ist aber dennoch international orientiert. Mit 1360 Seiten und Online-Zugang mit Testfragen und weiterführenden Informationen bietet das Werk ein ausgezeichnetes Preis-Leistungsverhältnis.

I was always taught that Harrison's is king for Internal Medicine, and it may be. I own
Harrison's Principles of Internal Medicine, 17th Edition
and
CURRENT Medical Diagnosis and Treatment 2011 (LANGE CURRENT Series)
but I use Davidson's. Maybe for someone who is on track to become an Internal Medicine Attending / Consultant this may be a bit lighter reading, but for everyone else I recommend Davidson's

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 3 April 2010Verified Purchase
I have always been a fan of Davidson's and disappointed that for some reason or other that KC has always cornered the student market. Back in the 1980s when KC came out it was better illustrated and had a more up to date feel than Davidsons but there has been a great deal of catch up. I as initially a fan of K&C and have owned every edition of both since 1987 but the most recent KC editions have become bloated. Davidson's has become my favourite medium sized medical text and I wish more people would give it a chance. It is beautifully presented and tightly written with more of a narrative style than the lists of bullet points seen in KC. A lot of information is contained in tables and the diagrams which mustn't be ignored. It contains a wealth of clinical information. At the end of the day it is a question of personal choice and preferred style - both books will get you through general medical undergraduate and postgraduate exams.
