“I am a medical student and this is the best Rheumatology book I’ve found. It’s very clear and concise with all of the conditions you need to know without waffling. “
Five-star reviews:Brilliant guide for any medical student! “This book is a fantastic guide for any medical student wanting a concise and student friendly source for everything rheumatology! The layout of the information as well as the pictures and little tips provided on how to go about this subject has been extremely helpful. The book is divided into sections making it easy to catagorise the information, I would definitely recommend it as a read if you’re struggling with rheumatology.” Amazon reviewerBest rheumatology guide for medical students “I used this book for my musculoskeletal rotation and I strongly recommend it. I didn’t even have to make notes from this book but simply read it a few times as it includes all salient up to date information in a very easy to follow colourful format without unnecessary paragraphs of information like in many other textbooks. The student friendly features are topped off with exam styled questions making this arguably the best rheumatology read out there for medical students.” Amazon reviewerBrilliant! “I am a medical student and this is the best Rheumatology book I’ve found. It’s very clear and concise with all of the conditions you need to know without waffling. It also contains a useful section about investigations and medication. I previously found Rheumatology to be confusing but thanks to this book it now seems much clearer!” Amazon reviewerAn essential textbook for all medical students “I’m surprised there aren’t more medical revision guides like this. The book is really student friendly - the content is straight to the point and I really like the use of boxes, diagrams and pictures. I would definately recommend this book to any student undergoing their rheumatology rotation.” Amazon reviewerTo the point “Very informative and concise, good resource for medical students. Gives all the relevant information in a clear and easy to understand format. I epecially like the “OSCE tips boxes”. Very handy for quick reference on the wards.” Amazon reviewerFive Stars “Excellent layout. Clear, concise and informative condition summaries, plenty of images and self-assessment. Must-read for all Medical Students” Amazon reviewerVery easy to understand and useful! “For me this book ticks all of the boxes for being a fine modular text. I was completely lost when it came to rheumatology before I picked up this book. It provides you with a lot of high quality information but in a way that is easy to digest.The best feature that sets this book apart from other rheumatology or orthopaedics/rheumatology books is the use of modern features such as a bullet point format, good use of colour and lots of mneumonics, tables and diagrams.The book also being new and up-to-date includes the latest national guidelines in rheumatology and saves me having to search through pages and pages of NICE guidance for instance.Finally the book being small and light makes it practical to carry on wards and clinics.The only downside is that it is a touch pricy for a modular text, but having said that I highly recommend this text for anyone undergoing their rheumatology rotations.” Amazon reviewerWonderful! “A fantastic book, well written and full of wonderful pictures, tables and diagrams.All the pertient information without the waffle! I can’t wait to see what else they bring out.” Amazon reviewerI have been using this book for my rheumatology placement and it’s been really useful! “I’m a very visual learner so I love the fact that it is colourful and concise. I think there is the right amount of information and the tables and diagrams make everything very easy to understand especially as rheumatology is such a tricky specialty that requires knowledge of every other system.” Amazon reviewerSmall book, concise, really helpful “I recently stated working as a Sonographer in Rheumatology and have found this book an excellent source of information in a small, concise format - thank you” Amazon reviewerExcellent “Excellent book - so clear and a good basis to build on.” Amazon reviewerI loved this book “This book [has] very good explanation, easy to understand and remember.Well pictured and structured. The author wrote this book absolutely in that way what I was looking for.Highly recommended!” Amazon reviewerFive Stars “Really helpful for the exam, well written, informative and precise” Amazon reviewerFive Stars “Excellent book for grasping rheumatology as a medical student. Clear, concise and well explained information.” Amazon reviewerGenuinely Helpful “I am really happy about my purchase of this book. It’s a really nice and easy read, pitched at the perfect level for a medical student like myself. In addition to its easy-to-read layout, i found the diagrams to be extremely helpful and clear. The pictures used and the use of colour is a welcome bonus as well. The OSCE chapter as well as the online access to SBA questions with detailed answers are particularly useful for exams.” Amazon reviewer
