As someone said here before, for the most part the substance of medical text books barely changes over the years. Just the pictures and formats get updated.

It's also very hard to find right now. Amazon has it, but not in stock. It's not even on Barnes and Noble's website.

There are very minor differences between 2nd 3rd and 4th. Actually, I think 2nd had best pictures for some topics. They changed total of like 3 picture for the 3rd edition. I imagine that 4th is no different

patient-doctor society is a class found for almost every medical school, it is different from clinical medicine which comes in 3rd, 4th or sometimes 5h semester. Ross University first year curriculum also has patient Doctor and society. I think the class helps to expose students to local hospitals as fast as their first or second semesters. Students learn guidelines to interacting with patients.

Who needs an extra class for that?

Books

So I'll be a first semester there starting in August and was wondering what books to get!!

There is no definite book to buy for each class so it gets confusing. Can someone please let me know what exact books are the best for the three classes we have to take so I can go ahead and order them. Thanks in advance
