Good but lacks rule out rules
A well written book which has made me question my own previous judgements about the risk of ACS for example, but on the other hand it does not give so much advice about when it's safe to skip the extra testing. As an quite inexperienced physician your left with a lot of anxiety but you can't test every diffuse pain in thorax and abdomen for dissecting aortic aneurysm. I would have appreciated some guide regarding rule out as well.
