Reader Reviews
This book is not in detail as bibles of infectious diseases, but it is still worth reading. For an ID man, this book should be used as a supplementary one not a texbook. For its small size, disease pathogenesis can not be dicussed in depth and this is the major drawback of this book. For general internalists, this book is a good one that you can find numerous infectious informations. Update is also necessary for this book.
