Details: If you are thinking about getting this book, I suggest the PDA version, because this book is designed to be a "pocket book", so it's small. The vast amount of information therefore has to be somehow packed into this book. The print is very small, I don't think any one can read this book from more than 2 inches away. The information is great, though.

Details: Well
I would like to say that this is a great book, yes its true.
The only prob is that you got to know what you're doing...and you got to know this book well...otherwise you're not going to come up with anything...
IF you pick up this book thinking that you're going to come up with the greatest antibiotic combinations you're wrong. You're just going to sit it there somewhere. and look elsewhere.
You need to know how to read it, as it is full of acronyms for lots of antibiotics; and so forth and so on...
You need to get used to it ask attending that might have you used it b4 so that you know what you're up against and stuff...especially if you're going to be working with critically ill patients; who are in icus
They need the best combinations possible of antibiotic ...
Make sure you protect you're calling...
