'An Introduction to the Symptoms and Signs of Clinical Medicine' has been conceived as the medical companion to Browse's hugely successful 'Introduction to the Symptoms and Signs of Surgical Disease'. Like Browse, it concentrates on the fundamental techniques of history taking and examination, restricting itself to common conditions likely to be seen in everyday practice. The changes in undergraduate curricula in the UK and overseas medical schools have opened up a niche for a 'hands-on' clinical skills book which takes a symptom-oriented approach. This book, with its emphasis on core topics and common conditions will be an invaluable resource for all medical students. Written in an accessible and concise style, 'An Introduction to the Symptoms and Signs of Clinical Medicine' includes practical 'stop and think' boxes for the reader. These include revision panels, practical points and symptom checklists. Red 'warning flags' are used to indicate critical situations.

100 Cases in Clinical Medicine is an indispensable revision tool for medical students preparing for clinical examinations or OSCEs. Using scenarios which mimic daily life, the cases will interest students in clinical problems and help them develop their clinical reasoning skills, with each case presenting details of a patient's medical history and the key findings of a clinical examination, together with initial investigation results for evaluation. Key questions then prompt the student to evaluate the patient, and reach a decision regarding their condition and the possible management plan, while the answer pages will help the student to understand the processes that a clinician goes through in dealing with the problems presented. Contents are organised to provide a quick review of each body system, with a selection of cases relevant to that specific system, then the majority are presented randomly to mimic real life in a GP surgery or emergency department. New to this edition: a review of each body system as well as random cases; new page design with a second colour used throughout; and brought up-to-date with 25% new cases.

Many published books that comment on the medical model have been written by doctors, who assume that readers have the same knowledge of medicine, or by those who have attempted to discredit and attack the medical practice. Both types of book have tended to present diagnostic categories in medicine as universally scientifically valid examples of clear-cut diseases easily distinguished from each other and from health; with a fixed prognosis; and with a well-understood aetiology leading to disease-reversing treatments. These are contrasted with psychiatric diagnoses and treatments, which are described as unclear and inadequate in comparison. The Medical Model in Mental Health: An Explanation and Evaluation explores the overlap between the usefulness of diagnostic constructs (which enable prognosis and treatment decisions) and the therapeutic effectiveness of psychiatry compared with general medicine. The book explains the medical model and how it applies in mental health, assuming little knowledge or experience of medicine, and defends psychiatry as a medical practice.
