Reviews
'... a refreshing and innovative attempt to allow clinical scientists access and input to medical students at an early stage and provide a true understanding of the cause rather than effect of disease. A brave new book for a brave new world ... might well sweep this text to the top of most students' book list.' British Medical Journal
'This is a handsomely bound and weighted 'introduction to clinical science' based on an excellent idea.' The Endocrinologist
'... an excellent introductory section on molecular and cell biology ... the chapters are easy to read and well illustrated.' Australian and New Zealand Journal of Medicine
'This is a well organised and illustrated book. The concepts are presented in a straightforward manner, keeping the minutiae to a minimum. I would highly recommend this for beginners in physiology and biochemistry as it is one of the better introductory books available.' Doody's Book Review
