FANTASTIC & VASTLY IMPROVED UROLOGY BIBLE - DETAILED REVIEW OF CAMPBELL-WALSH 9th EDITION,
Campbell Walsh Urology Edition 9ed 4 Volumes with Full Online Access - WEIN ISBN:1416029664 EAN:9781416029663Binding:

This will get you the hard copy 4 volumes and a CD-ROM containing ONLY references and link to abstract on pubmed. Unlike the previous edition the entire text and images of the book ARE NOT (emphasize - ARE NOT) available on CD anymore. You can access the entire text book through a computer ONLINE only after logging in. NOTE as per publisher- Purchase of this book includes a limited personal license to the online version for use exclusively by the individual who has purchased the book. This license and access to the web site operates strictly on the basis of a single user per PIN. The sharing of passwords is strictly prohibited, and any attempt to do so will invalidate the password. The license and access may not be lent, resold, or otherwise circulated.

Coming to the REVIEW OF THIS BOOK which you all want to read - "FANTASTIC" should say it in one word. Huge improvement in the presentation, contents, pictures, videos & diagrams. The layout and presentation makes this book more enjoyable and interesting to read compared to the 8th edition. The key points in boxes in most pages are good for quick review. Similarly the multicolour tables are helpful. The book is overall well updated and is relevant to early 2006 when it was written. The online edition updates this to current relevance partly and it will be interesting to see how good this new option will be as time goes by.

The NEGATIVE points are - some of the diagrams are too gaudy and oversimplified and therefore practically not good (more like primary school diagrams). Some of the surgical photographs are of poor standard have blood in the field glaring and you can hardly see the anatomy they are pointing to. They need to weed out such photographs & diagrams drastically in the next edition.

Coming to the ONLINE ACCESS of the text book at www.campbellsurology.com -The text search option is miles better than the previous edition and brings out the relevant ones and there is an indicator showing the relevance to your keyword search. It also brings up the image library with relevant images at the same time with rating of relevance to the topic searched which is significant improvement.
There is a scrapbook in your online account which stores all saved searches, bookmarks and your notes. Select multiple images into the "lightboxes" and download the images at the end of your browsing.
You can print the pages you want in a printer friendly format. You can send pages you want to your PDA for browsing as needed.

Overall opinion - 4.5 out of 5 stars. All urology residents and consultant should have this, preferably with the online access "E-dition" option (will cost an additional Euro 100 approx compared to option 2- see below).


OTHER AVAILABLE OPTIONS -
Campbells Urology 9ed 4 Volume Book with CDRom Video Clips - WEIN ISBN:0721607985 EAN:9780721607986 . Details same as above but WITHOUT access to online 4 volume text and updates . CD Rom has diagrams, photographs and references with links only.


THIRD OPTION:
Campbell-Walsh Urology Online, 9th Edition (like a ebook which you can access 4 volumes of text with updates online only) - you are excluding the hard cover book option. ISBN: 978-1-4160-2968-7.


So remember Campbell Walsh Urology Edition 9ed 4 Volumes is available in 3 TYPES/ OPTIONS !!
