Excellent layout of the information!! Information is concise, good for visual learners like myself. A great resource to have for all levels.
by Livi Cunningham
I think this book is very nicely laid out and all the basics are covered. Obviously, in a small book not all conditions can be covered so it is definitely better for those in early clinical years e.g., 3rd year as after that you will most likely need a higher level of information than provided.

This book is excellent. The mind maps have a really good level of detail for each condition, so that you get a very comprehensive overview without being an overwhelming amount of information. They cover everything from pathophysiology throughout to management, and sometimes contain extra detail on the different pharmacological approaches when relevant. I can tell this will be extremely useful when it comes to revising these conditions, as it gives you all the key information you need, and allows you to quickly recall the essentials about a condition. It looks great too, and is very clearly laid out and colour coded to make it easy to understand. Overall, this is an extremely good revision tool for medical students, id recommend to anyone!

Absolutely fantastic book! Perfect for the visual learners but also learners like myself who did not think they were visual learners but were taken aback by the clarity of presentations. Some visual mind maps can lack detail but this book covers the perfect amount of detail for medical students and also junior doctors alike.
I am a GP trainee and found this a very useful summary but also the medical students I teach loved it and found it perfect for clinical medicine. Genuinely a steal at this price and could not recommend more!

Wow I came across this book in my medical library and i was really really impressed! Very clear and includes all of the essential information and more! Highly recommend.

This book looks to be really helpful. It’s well laid out, a good level of information – sufficient info for a med student’s purposes without being overwhelming. Unfortunately, however, my copy arrived with the cover and many pages bent and slightly torn. The book is good enough that I’m going to keep it despite this however – I’d ask for an exchange, but I really want to use it in the next few days!
by Sarah Kippax
Great resource! Each condition is clearly laid out with lots of areas to annotate and specific boxes to add notes. Will be really beneficial!
