Clinical History Taking and Examination: An Illustrated Colour Text by P.D. Welsby
It is vital for medical students to gain confidence quickly in history taking and examination early in their course. Almost every student buys a book on clinical examination. This text covers the principles of how to approach a patient and put them at their ease before taking the history. It then goes through each of the major systems and instructs the student in the best way to make the examination, the features to look for, how to use basic equipment and which further investigative tests are required.
