Discussion Quick question for any Med students on here

since im bored out of my mind (and probably stuck at home for the most part of 2020) it is time to binge read as many books as i can. and that brings me to the medical syllabus. the books vary a lot over different curriculums/unis so im compiling a list that approximately matches up with most of them. there are just so many. but ive got time so what does it matter.

all recommendations and tips are welcome ^-^

 

Well I know that this textbook is a must read for any medical professionals concerning anatomy/ physiology. My friend said it really helped him during his finals.

Inside the Cave of Obscenity

 

......

.................i mustve been delusional to ask this here

 

Is there a reason as to why you wish to compile that list?

 

cells at work?

 

Well, you can try Biology by Campbell Publishers, not sure what ed they are up to now but it does give a simple overview.

 

i planned on reading them anyways. having another goal on the side is good to keep the flow going. also im bored out of my mind staying at home.

 

lol like the anime? maybe if i make a kindergartner's guide to medicine sure.

 

its nice for building a foundation. but im looking for books with extensive information for building on that foundation. like gray's anatomy, lippincott's biochem, snell's clinical anatomy etc etc

 

Well, I’m not a med student. In fact I’m going to Law school, but my entire family is in medicine and I love reading medical books so I guess I’ll answer. But also, it really depends on what you’re looking for, cardiology, oncology, infectious diseases, anatomy, etc.? But I’ll just give you some books to read that I have on my bookshelf.

• Nursing in Today’s World: Challenges, Issues, and Trends - Janice R. Ellis, Celia L. Hartley.
• Cardiovascular Physiology- Berne & Levy
• Everyone’s Guide to Cancer Therapy: How Cancer is Diagnosed, Treated, and Managed Day to Day - Malin Dollinger, M.D. , Ernest H. Rosenbaum, M.D. , Margaret Tempero, M.D. , Sean J. Mulvihill, M.D.
• Diabetes Mellitus - Lilly Research Laboratories.

Just a few I pulled off my shelf,

 

... u have no idea how bad i want to rob your bookshelf. lol thanks for the titles. i will check them out. im looking for books on all of the topics. basically a comprehensive guide to what would be taught in med school. my neck hurts already. so much to read. but im having fun so why not

 

Anatomy: Gray's Anatomy, Moore's Clinically Oriented Anatomy

Physiology: Guyton & Hall Physiology

Biochemistry: Harper's Biochemistry, Lippincott's Biochemistry

Histology: Ross and Pawlina Histology - A Text and Atlas

Pharmacology: Goodman&Gilman Pharmacological Basis of Theraprautics, Katzung's Pharmacology

Physical Diagnosis: Bates Guide to Physical Examination

Surgery: Schwartz Principles of Surgery

Pathology: Robbins and Cotran Pathologic Basis of Disease

Microbiology/Parasitology: Jawetz Medical Microbiology, Bailey&Scott's Diagnostic Microbiology

I bet a year is not enough to finish all of these.
GLHF!!!

 

nice! for sure a year would not be enough. i think i could go halfway at least tho. thanks!!

 

You can try Gray's Anatomy. Yes, it's an actual book. It's not a TV comedy originally.

You can also try one of the versions of Merck Manual. If the ones used by medical students are too advanced for you, you can try online version, it's designed to be easy to digest for the common people. https://www.merckmanuals.com/home

 

Try watching TV series "House"

 

thanks! looks like a nice site. i am a medical student (or idk everything's on hold bc of the virus so technically not yet i guess?)

 

ive been meaning to watch that for quite a few years now but something about hugh laurie's face is just unsettling and repulsive. no offense to him lol

 

I like your thread.
I'm studying medical engineering,I want to recommend books for you but they are all in the engineering part.
If you are looking for a pdf version of the medical books you can search in ZLibrary .

 

seriously thank you So Much....finding books isnt as much of an issue as acquiring them for free is. it's such a headache looking for the pdf ver. easy to find but still time consuming to look on so many sites. lww health library is an amazing source but the damned subscription is a bitvh.

really liking zlibrary.

im mainly looking for medical books but not opposed to similar fields. u can recommend medical engineering books too. im kinda interested in that topic (just didnt want to take it up as a career) but it's still fun

 

This is the same issue I was struggling with,but thank god I found this Library.

Sorry sometimes I mean to write something but when I reread it again I find it unfinished.
It is medical devices engineering
In the engineering part :
*- Digital design work and practices , John F.Wakerly
*- Digital fundamentals , Thomas L.Floyd
*- I don't remember the authors but the titles were "mechanical engineering " another one "electronics" and another is "fourier series " .
For the in between part is with the devices when we study them we don't use one source so I will write for you some devices you can search information for:
"Blood pressure instruments" "Medical monitoring instruments " "centrifuge " "water bath" "oven" "ECG" "autoclave " .
We haven't gone deep in the medical part so it is all general knowledge I can't recommend books in it.
