This is my most favorite Med school book!
This comprehensive volume is a gorgeous medical Textbook (yes,text books can be gorgeous too!I used this word for this book and it's not a typo just to be clear!)
Robbin's is that book which would take you to the next level in 2nd year of med school!In Indian system 1st year of med school is awful and for over 95% students,the biggest worry is how to survive the 1st year,ragging,English language,most dreaded vivas etc!But once you scramp through the 1st year,you enter clinics!Welcome to the big leagues now!
Here comes the big guy!Robbin's is that book!Robbins is so well written,comprehensive yet a very easy read!Pathology is a very important subject and if you do well in it,Internal Medicine becomes much easier!If you study well with Robbin's,you really get used to a new realm!This book prepares you for the next level,which is Harrison's Internal Medicine!
Robbin's has two main parts:General pathology and systemic!General part of the book is absolutely absolutely essential!!DO NOT AVOID those chapters,esp 1st seven chapters of the Big Robbin's book as they are very important and must read chapters for exams!For life too!
I was addicted to this book and ended up reading it 7 times in my 2nd year!It was my default-go to book and it helped me immensely!
It is a very beautiful book,full in color and charts,amazing images,flow charts!It is wayy better than that other book your lazy guide/senior is telling you about!I can swear on it!
I heart Robbins (Father Robbins-the biggest of 3 ) book!A must read treasure for any medical student :-)

Una compra justa

Muy bueno tanto para el estudio mismo de la anatomía patológica, como para complementar el estudio de otras ciencias médicas como, por ejemplo, la semiología misma. Hace justicia la compra, especialmente en formato ebook, que le una portabilidad inigualable y da acceso, especialmente cuando lo que se busca es una consulta específica de algún tema en particular.

An American book on the mechanism of disease. Good for the enthusiastic student that ever yearns to know more than his classmates.

This text is thicc. Thicc. The page count does not even do it justice. Each section is denser than Diamond with all the information it tries to fit in. In actuality, it is probably more thorough than one will require for examination or clinical purposes, but that is the intent. As a complete source of information it definitely gets the job done. I hope in future editions they do an effort to highlight the more important details from the endless pages. Perhaps the bold setting could be used more readily?

Can now actually claim to have read this cover to cover (not for fun, I have an exam coming up).
Swathes of this are unbelievably dry, and it will suddenly reward you for traversing the desert with an absolute gem of a sentence (either that or I just started hallucinating).

I've listed my favourites here to save you the trouble of reading this 1000+ page monster. Although perhaps they lose their charm when you haven't had to work for them.

What is a human but an ingenious machine designed to turn, with infinite artfulness, the red wine of Shiraz into urine?

Regardless of cause, the enlargement of the lymphoid tissue invites the tender mercies of the ENT surgeon.

The term adrenal incidentaloma is a half-facetious moniker that has crept into the medical lexicon

The rarity of clinically significant lesions (virtually only tumors) justifies brevity in the consideration of the pineal gland... Whether to characterize these germ cell neoplasms as pinealomas is debated, but most “pinealophiles” favor restricting the term pinealoma to neoplasms arising from the pineocytes.

The mouth is not merely a gateway for delicacies

Although the human integument may appear drab com- pared with the skin and pelage of other members of the animal kingdom, it is extraordinarily vibrant with regard to the diversity of functions that it carries out.

Another cell type found in skin that remains cloaked in mystery is the Merkel cell.

Cretinism refers to hypothyroidism that develops in infancy or early childhood. The term cretin was de- rived from the French chrétien, meaning “Christian” or “Christlike,” and was applied to these unfortunates because they were considered to be so mentally retarded as to be incapable of sinning.

you'd think this was some dry, informative, educational text on pathology but it's laced with quips, tongue in cheek comments on the immune system, cellular interactions via cytokines, obesity, even cancer. i highly recommend this text.
