(For Context, I am a third year medical student at a Canadian University)

I used this book in conjunction with the EM section in Toronto Notes 2013 and the podcast "EM Cases" to prep for my EM shelf exam. If you can get through the text, it is very very useful for providing you with a baseline level of knowledge in most areas of EM. After finishing it, you'll get that nagging feeling in the ER after seeing a pt "I know what this is, but I can't remember the details" and then you will return to study that section of this text.

Problem is, though it is FAR shorter than the full Tintinalli text, it will still take some time to go through and is probably overkill for most students purposes.

I've had this for years and I still reference it often or just read it for fun. Obstetrics, pediatrics, cardiovascular, trauma, toxicology, immunology, infectious disease, and everything else. Diagnose and treat a rash or deliver a baby.
