NMS Medicine (National Medical Series-Medicine) 6/e

NMS Medicine, Sixth Edition is the ideal reference and review for medical students in the internal medicine clerkship.
The concise, outline-format coverage of essentials, end-of-chapter USMLE-style questions, and case studies at the end
of the book offer excellent preparation for the shelf/end-of-rotation exam and USMLE. This edition has been thoroughly
updated and streamlined to focus on essential material. The revised questions better reflect the level of difficulty of
shelf/end-of-rotation exams. The book has a new two-color design with more illustrations and wider margins for notes. A
companion Website offers the fully searchable text, additional material which is indicated in the book by icons, and a
comprehensive examination.
