Leí la 14a edición, es triste desprenderse de los libros de la carrera pero no debo conservar más de 2 ediciones atrasadas.

Hands down the best surgical textbook! There were so many logical explanations and tips for differentiating similar presentations that helped me to pass my surgery shelf with flying colors. This book was almost the only tool I used for study aside from two NBME self-assessments, so the time spent reading it made my life during surgery rotation so much more manageable. A must read for surgeons or physicians in any specialty that works closely with surgery.

When Schwartz was still a two volume book, this was the best book to move around with during med school. A bit complex for a student but there were topics in it that makes this book unique.

The gold standard for surgical students. 22nd edition covers anatomy, physiology, and decision-making across every major system. It's dense but organized enough that I can quickly pull up a procedure and understand the rationale behind it. For a low-cost PDF/EPUB copy, eTextBook Lib has it: https://etextbooklib.com/sabiston-tex...

Well ladies I am aware that this is a very sad choice of books to be reading but it's the truth..... I'm studying for my yearly surgery exam. After it's over on Jan 26 I promise to post something enjoyable to read :-)
