a place in a medical school of admirable repute. Let's
call this person Ah Kao.
The

we find a better alternative, you can count on Medbookstore
nevertheless.
Loads

be it preclinical or clinical. Useful. Essential click!   |

Clinical Skills 
Textbook of Physical Diagnosis: History and Examination
by Mark H. Swartz - Touted the Gray's Anatomy
of clinical skills. You get the idea. Which is why I shunted Macleod's
for Swartz's.
Clinical Examination (I think) by O'Connor & Talley - Equally
impressive. Choose between Swartz or Talley, you won't go wrong.
A Primer of Medicine by M.H.Pappworth - I'm
a great fan of Dr. Pappworth's books. His writings are paradoxically
but boldly inspiring. Must read classical piece for every living
medical student. (There is only 1 copy
left in the BJ IMU librabry.)  ECG Guide

You don't have to be a USMLE candidate to benefit from this book. Be resourceful. It becomes especially handy when exam starts crawling around the corner. Get it in the library NOW and you'll know what I meant. ....................................................... Clinical Medicine University of Utah School of Medicine Third Year Book Guide - Applies to non-Utah med students also. If you are just starting your clinical years and wondering which textbooks to get, this is the perfect place to go.

IMU
Corner
It's been 12 heavy weeks since my clinical rotations
rolled off. Phew...what can I say? Unbelievably fulfilling
and enjoyable though at times backbreaking. I
once saw an overly meretricious medical student walking AROUND the
compound of our medical school in Bukit Jalil, KL. Semicircling the
back of his neck was a pair of Littmann stets.Not that he's on call or something (the campus in Bukit Jalil is meant for preclinical training only, utility of stethoscope if nothing else is next to minimal) Rather, I think he was trying to exude some pretentious charms to first years. This gentleman should be better off shovelling shit in the pig farm lest debasing our humanistic craft with the often-wrongly-abused stethoscope hanging maneuver.
Am I missing something or what? It seemed as if IMU has been rendered
febrile by this (Halflife - Counterstrike) multiplayer shoot-'em up
computer game. EVERY goddam medical student is resorting virtually
to holding an M16. Study or exam stress perhaps. Not for me I guess, I've played enough mind-fragging deathmatches during the gorish old Quake era to be able to resist this innocuous gun fighting fad.
Attention! Are you an alumnus
of IMU school of medicine or pharmacy? YES? Then you've got yourself
a home in cyberspace at http://www.chronoworks.com/imu/index.asp Now, if you'd excuse me, I'm gonna venture out there to find out whether my former dream girl is still or has become (hehe) desperately available.
I noticed an unbelievable but interesting trend in the choice of textbooks
amongst most IMU medical students...... Tell ya more later.
Miscellaneous
I just learnt another new phrase, though somewhat satirical - soporific
index. Meaning: Reference to gauge the slumber-inducing effect
of an object or person. Usage: The soporific index of that
anatomy lecturer is consistently but unsurprisingly high. :-)
I checked on MPH Bookstore's medical textbooks
section at the Mid-Valley Megamall recently. Found out quite a number
of things.1. A lot of hard-to-find books. 2. A lot of newly published books. 3. Expensive. 4. Limited selection. 5. Books appeal more to medical literature collectors or medical library curators.
