Customer Rating:      Summary: Good book for backround Comment: Great descriptions of techniques and some pathology. However, for a physical diagnosis book I would have expected more pictures of pathology. Many are included, I just would have liked more.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Excellent CD Comment: The CD that comes with this book is very handy while learning exams. I have not really used the book however because Bates seems to be the standard that most schools are using.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Informative, but SEXIST Comment: The authors do not hesitate to tell the reader that two of the four women that were photographed for the section on breast cancer (half) were in complete denial of their condition. They remark that both women presented to the clinic with horrific and obvious cancers that they supposedly only noticed the "day before." While denial is an important aspect of breast cancer (and many other conditions), the authors limit the discussion of denial to women only. When I read the male genatalia chapter and saw the horrific lessions pictured, there was no mention that any of the men had "just noticed" that angry chancre or those boiling warts. I would think there must be some psychological issue such as denial at work in the fellows that were photographed as well since thier conditions were also so advanced. However, the authors do not mention it. Funny, huh? It's a good book anyway, but the authors need to check themselves. (...)
Customer Rating:      Summary: Better than Bates! Comment: Im disappointed that I did not have this book sooner in my student career. For the last 2 years we have been using Bates and quite frankly Bates is okay for the most part but it leaves out details as to why the test is done.
The pictures are better in Swartz. There are sections on differential diags and pathophysiology with each test. This is an amazing textbook.
I found out about this text from a visiting professor from the UK. For some reason all the visiting profs we have had from the UK have a certain skill which seems to be a lot better than what we are taught here in the US. They have an EXCELLENT grip on their H&P and treat medicine like an art. I asked which book they were using over there and they said Swartz and the other one by Epstein (also gold).
If you feel the Bates is insufficient check this book out.
