Pocket Companion to Guyton and Hall Textbook of Medical Physiology, 12e PDF
As a 4th year medical student I felt my physiology knowledge was below what I expected of myself. Our physiology classes the 2nd year were terrible; our teacher mostly fed us with Powerpoint presentations where the core concepts were lost in all the details.By conrad ott
I recently upgraded my medical library, all my books are now Kindle e-books. It is really fantastic that you can read these books on your iPad anywhere from the living room to the beach.
As for these Guyton books:
Big Guyton: for reference and topics of personal interest only. I can see myself reading more in this after graduation, but as a busy medical student it is way too time-consuming trying to digest all this. Much of the details inside this book is also what I would consider not important, especially some of the details in unit I and II. The quality of the content is without doubt qualifying for 5 stars, great as a reference. But I think most medical students will be lost in the details if they use this book as their primary resource.
The Pocket Companion: I gave this book 5 stars. As a medical student, this book provides the perfect balance of details; not too detailed, but also not too brief. This is high yield info. I spent 2 weeks reading/highlighting this book and spent 5 days re-reading the highlights. Super efficient.
The Guyton review book: bought this as well. Read two of the units by the time I write this. Good questions and answers. 5 stars content so far.
This pocket companion is just the right size for a lab coat. Would highly recommend purchasing this book. Has all the important information that the "GIGANTIC" book has. Essential!!!!By MD Student
