Explore Cecil Essentials of Medicine (10th edition) by Edward J. Wing & Fred J. Schiffman.
Cecil Essentials of Medicine presents a core of internal medicine and neurology information that every physician should know. This book provides an essential framework so physicians can appropriately assemble the key elements of history, physical examination, and laboratory data to understand their patient’s illness and develop an appropriate diagnostic and therapeutic strategy.
Furthermore, in order to understand advances in medicine, physicians must have a strong background for the acquisition and categorization of new medical knowledge.
Cecil Essentials of Medicine is designed for medical students as well as physicians in training, and we hope it will be an appropriate vehicle for course and examination review. The editors also believe, however, that physicians at all stages in their careers will find it to be a valuable resource for review and reference.
This book also serves as a companion to the 26th edition of Goldman-Cecil Medicine, which is more comprehensive in scope and detailed in its content. Cecil Essentials of Medicine is organized into sections, most often representing organ systems, with introductory and then organspecific, disease-based chapters. The chapters themselves are subdivided.
For example, the cardiovascular disease chapter is divided into Epidemiology, Anatomy, Pathophysiology, Clinical Diagnosis, and Treatment. The Suggested Readings sections at the end of each chapter include selected critical reviews, guidelines, and important randomized controlled trials. They are not meant to be an exhaustive reference list, but rather to highlight the essential information that physicians should know.
The editors believe that the information in Cecil Essentials of Medicine will encourage evidence-based diagnostic and therapeutic decision making. Importantly, the rational approach to medical problem-solving must be interwoven with the attentive presence of the physician at the bedside, clinic or office, undistracted by electronic devices (particularly the computer), displaying mindful humanistic patient care.
Humanistic practice includes integrity, compassion, altruism, respect, service, and empathy, but also excellence. Both the art and the science of medicine must be part of the approach to any patient encounter.
The editors believe that these concepts have been best expressed by Frances Peabody, who famously stated that “the significance of the intimate personal relationship between physician and patient cannot be too strongly emphasized, for in an extraordinary large number of cases both the diagnosis and treatment directly depend upon it.
One of the essential qualities of the clinician is interest in humanity for the secret of the care of the patient is in caring for the patient,” and by Sir William Osler, who said, “The practice of medicine is an art not a trade; a calling not a business; a calling in which your heart will be exercised equally with your head.”
