Harrison's Principles of Internal Medicine 19/E (Vol.1 & Vol.2)

The landmark text that has defined internal medicine for generations of clinicians and students – completely updated with a more streamlined, functional presentation

Through six decades, no resource has matched the authority, esteemed scholarship, and scientific rigor of Harrison’s Principles of Internal Medicine. Both an educational tool and a clinical reference, it is one of the most widely read and universally respected textbooks in all of medical publishing and the pinnacle of current medical knowledge.

The Nineteenth Edition of Harrison’s features a new presentation, logically divided into two volumes. Volume 1 covers essential foundational-level material on the basic principles underlying optimal patient care and assessment of signs and symptoms. Volume 2 is devoted to specific diseases and the best evidence based approaches to their management.

Capturing the countless advances and developments across the full span of medicine, this edition of Harrison’s offers a complete update of all content related to disease pathogenesis, clinical trials, current diagnostic methods and imaging approaches, evidence-based practice guidelines, and established and newly approved treatment methods.
