Editorial Reviews

Review

"With its many clinical photos (not usually seen in other, similar books), this is clearly one of the best board reviews available. I highly recommend this for board review and as a desk reference for all involved in the practice of internal medicine." - Vincent F Carr, DO, MSA, FACC, FACP(Uniformed Services University of the Health Sciences) 5 star Doody Rating!

Of the board review books, this was the most comprehensive. The material is more dense than other review books so if you want just a brush-up on material go to the other ones. If you want fairly detailed review of topics, this is the book for you. Despite its small size, its packed full of information so beware - it takes a lot longer to read and memorize material. The book comes with a question-bank that can be accessed online or with an online app. I used both (computer and android) and I liked it. The questions were well written and just a little bit harder than the actual Board exam. The explanations and questions could be used by themselves as a quick review methodology.

I thought I could pass without any preparation and I ended up failing by just a few questions. So I got this book and read through it and studied from it. My score went up well into passing range. Worked well for me.

I received the book on 1/27/2014 and was very disappointed because the expertconsult.com site that you need to access the 1000 questions was down and didn't allow you to register. The book itself is pretty informative, but the question bank is just as important for review purposes.
I must reevaluate my review since the expertconsult.com site came back online on about 2/10/14. It now allows you to register and you have access to the book and the questions online. It also allows you to use the Inkling app for free to view the book and questions on my ipad. Download the Inkling app on your ipad and use the same email address and password as you use for the expertconsult.com site to log in. I recommend getting the book and not the Kindle version, especially if you have an ipad. The questions are fairly challenging and the answers provided are clear and concise. This purchase is certainly worth the price now. I have to give it 4/5 stars now and would probably have given it 5 if the site was working from the beginning.

The text is well written, and the contents is just about everything an internist-to-be needs to know for the board review. It is not an in-depth review of all internal medicine, if you're in need for that, get the Harrison's instead. It's just a fine study guide, no-nonsense.

It is reasonable quality Board Review book but I would definitely not use it as a stand alone for IM Boards re-certification or initial certification. Having said that, I did re-certify using mostly this review book, but did feel little deficient during the exam.
The price is very cheap and the quality of the paper, printing and images is top notch.

I think this is an ok review as far as the text and tables go, but I ordered the Kindle version which was a mistake. First of all, I can't see the Tables on Kindle-looks like it's not really formatted for Kindle at all. I am now using the Kindle App on my MacBook which works better. However, now I can't see the review questions. For the Q/A, you are directed to sign into yet another website (ExpertConsult) and enter some code that you have to dig through your original purchase confirmation to find and then you still can't see the questions and answers. I have emailed for help now 3 times and spent way too much time trying to get this to work. It is really a cumbersome design. I will probably end up giving up on the Q/A. Buy the hardcopy if Q/A are important to you.
