A must read but not the best
Yet the depth of information that you get it from Hutchison is a factor
The CD associated is really good although now its available on youtube...

كتاب يفضل أن يطلع عليه كل طالب طب في سنوات الدراسة ما قبل الاختصاص، منظم ومرتب ومفيد (ومتعمق كذلك وهذا قد يُعتبر ميزة -لمن يريد التوسع- أو سلبية لمن يريد مراجعة معلومة أو الحصول على رؤوس أقلام) لكنه بالتأكيد ذو قيمة طبية كبيرة بالنسبة لي.

This book really needs to be more systematised. It is not bad, but have really a lot of untapped potential.

Good handbook for learning Clinical exam but not concise enough to carry around during rounds. Read it a few times to review concepts and then have another smaller book for quick referencing.
