Clinician's Guide to Laboratory Medicine (Clinicians Guide Series):
Excellent. I use it everyday. Great for new practitioners and students. I lost the pocket guide and ordered the package again just to get that.
One of the best bedside books purchased!!!:
Well worth the money, easy to use, helps formulate a diff dx based off of labs. Has helped me through my hospital rotation.
Excellent book:
I found this book to be extremely helpful during basic science, especially in case-based classes or lectures, my savior on the wards, and it has continued to serve me well during residency. This book is well written, providing enough background information as to facillitate use by medical students but also providing more advanced explainations for those at a higher level. The flow charts for the interpretation and evaluation of abnormal laboratory values are very helpful. I would highly recommend this book.... more info
