Mosby's Guide to Physical Examination
  
Mosby's Guide to Physical Examination is a comprehensive textbook of physical examination, history-taking, and health assessment with a unique emphasis on differential diagnosis and variations across the lifespan. Written by a team of two physicians and two nurses with a special blend of expertise in adult health and pediatrics, the book conveys a uniquely compassionate, patient-centered approach to physical examination with a strong evidence-based foundation. A completely updated art and media program -- consisting of 260 new illustrations, with all new examination photos, full motion video exams on the companion CD-ROM, a completely new 15-part video series, and expanded Health Assessment Online asset library -- further solidify Seidel's reputation as the best-illustrated, most media rich, physical examination textbook on the market.

This book is great for students who will be in full contact with patients. With increase in technology usage this book lets the healthcare provider that patients are human too and they need proper care.

(Hide Review...)  what the professor ordered
Reviewer Permalink
This book was used for a health assessment course. It is thorough, going through each system and how to systematically assess the patient. It includes information on infants, children, pregnant women and older adults for each system. Many color pictures aid to the assessment.

(Hide Review...)  Great Pocket Mosby!
Reviewer Permalink
I have this and the large hardcover textbook. This pocket version is great and fits nicely into my coat pocket when I am in clinic. Although it's not as comprehensive as the big Mosby's, it's definitely handy.

(Hide Review...)  If you need it
Reviewer Permalink
This book has alot of information in it. I kind of wish I did not get the book because my teacher has notes for everything she wants us to know. I've tried reading it but... I believe it would make a good reference book when you need to look something up.

Excellent resourse for health care professionals, there is a big focus on communication which I think is very important in primary care.

This seems to be the common text for most medical training programs. Excellent pictures. Covers most things in Basic concepts without too much detail. Detail is left to other books on each subject.

(Hide Review...)  Excellent reference
Reviewer Permalink
This is a well organized reference for use in the clinical setting. Both professional nurses and advanced practice nurses will find this a valuable addition to their reference library. Clinical pearls included throughout the text are nice tips for the experienced practicioner.

(Hide Review...)  Too much and too little information
Reviewer Permalink
This book has several chapters that are useful overviews of systems & abnormalities but there are numerous gaping holes in information, which is quite frustrating, and tends to be laking universal organization (bad editors?). Bates is WAY better.
