Good book:
I read this book first time when I was in Baghdad. It was kind of heavy book because it was a photocopied book. When I came to the State always remember the W. manual, it is very easy to read and a good help to manage the inpatients. For sure you need the textbooks for some subjects, but again the manual is of a good help always. I love this edition it is light and very easy to read.
