Recommended Reading
By now, you are all likely aware of the range of books and resources available for you to work from.
The large medical textbooks, such as Kumar and Clark's Clinical Medicine, hold a wealth of information in their pages. However, they may be an insurmountable resource when it comes to revising for finals due to the breadth (and depth) required of you.
We feel it is more advisable to use shorter overviews of topics, and compliment this with more detailed resources as necessary.
The Oxford Handbooks, and 'mini'-Kumar and Clark will likely serve you well - especially in relation to overviews of management of acute/emergency conditions. The newer 'K+C's Medical Therapeutics' gives more indepth info on the treatment of conditions.
The 'Lecture Notes' series and 'At a Glance' books can be useful, although the latter verges on the too basic side.
There are a number of good clinical skills/examinations book
