The number of questions has increased from 822 to 900, and case-based questions reflect the boards' recertification exams.

Customer Reviews

Excellent, compact, concise and interesting
I carry this book with me to work. I am an internal medicine specialist. Useful for getting a quick summary and useful for dipping into at random. Presented concisely and interestingly. Would complement the big harrisons. I haven't seen better.
