Negative Positive
Title: For med students, It's good but unecessary.
Review: It's a good book that is just as good as any other case files, and I enjoyed reading it. It really highlights important cases by giving clinical vignettes and them explaining the diagnosis. It also includes questions after each vignette that helps you remember key points about a disease. I was satisfied that this book did an excellent job going over psych, but by the time that I was finished reading it, I felt like it didn't add as much to my education as I wanted. I went through First Aid clerkship book for psych before going over this book, and the FA book was more than enough. This book was really just icing on the cake once you already have the basic information memorized. I read it in a couple of days, which leads me to believe that it is best used as a quick review before a test rather than as a primary source. Though I think you might be able to use it for either if you wanted.
Is the review positive or negative?
