That's all so far, I am planning on purchasing Baby Robbins when the new edition (7e) comes out in a few months, and then upgrading to Big Robbins when 8e is released around 2007. I could spend less and get an old edition now, but I don't need the detail until third year so Baby Robbins is a better deal. Also thinking of getting Student Gray's, but money is an issue and I have the two "acquired" tomes from the library to tide me over until at least the end of the year. Good thing nobody from college is on this forum. :P

I can't be;ieve the number of books I've bought for Medicine so far.

I'll see if I can recount them all:

1st year
---------
Anatomy and Physiology - Tortora and Grabowski
Netter's Atlast of Anatomy
Wheater's Function Histology
Histology and Cell Biology
Clinicall Oriented Antomy
Medical Embryology
Another Clinical anatomy book (which is really old but I picked it up for cheap at a second hand book sale)
Dorland's Medical Dictionary

2nd year
----------
Pathophysiology of Heart Disease
Pulmonary Pathophysiology
Vander's Renal Physiology
Robbin's Pathological Basis of Disease (Big one)
Robbin's Pathological Basis of Disease (Pocket)
Functional Histopathology
GIT book (can't remember name)
Pharmacology - Rang and Dale
Human Physiology book (can't remember name, but it is very good and I got it for cheap at a second hand book sale)
EDIT: Forgot Immunology by Nairn and Helbert

3rd year
----------
Talley and O'Connor Clinical Examination (Big one)
Talley and O'Connor Clinical Examination (Pocket)
Nolte's The Human Brain
Clinical Microbiology
Clinical Microbiology Made Ridiculously Simple

and I'm supposed to buy some more books for this semester that I haven't even thought about yet.

To top it all off, we still have to print a fair bit of notes during the year as well


Also bought Netter's Flash Cards.

That's 23 books (if I've counted right) and I may have forgotten some!

Kuby immunology (online edition)
Dorlands

But i use my PDA and Uni Hospital access heaps..

All my books are the newest editions, im just recalling them from the top of my head...

+Saunder's comprehensive veterinary dictionary
+Veterinary physiology - Cunningham
+Textbook of Veterinary histology - Dellman et al.
+Textbook of Veterinary anatomy - Dyce et al.
+Essential cell biology - Alberts et al.
+Miller's anatomy of the dog - Evans et al.
+Colour atlas of veterinary anatomy (dog and cat) - Done et al.

Havent bought a book for 1.5 years. I borrow from the library. Books I love are Robbins Pathology, Talley and O Connor, Davidsons Book of Medicine.

Great internet resources are:
http://www.emedicine.com
http://www.gpnotebook.com
http://www.bmjlearning.com
http://www.bmj.com

Personally, there isnt a day in my medical life that I go without using emedicine. Its up to date, and a fantastic resource.

Unbelieveable Isuru. Man you have bought so many books. I bet they look great on your book shelf. I would love to own your collection. I never bought half of those books. They are pretty expensive. How did you get your hands on Clinical Microbiology Made Ridiculously simple. Many people were trying to get their hands on one of those books for months when in 3/4th yr. Its the best Micro book of all time.

Nolte's the Human Brain is a killer, although I have made a mini book based on this book for Neuroscience. I intend to bind my notes, and just hand it out to future 3rd years. :-)

I have:
- Robbins big- 6th edition
- Souhami Textbook of Medicine- 4th edition
- Rang, Dale, Ritter, Moore Pharmaology- 5th edition
- Rhoades and Pflanzer Human Physiology- 4th edition
- Moore and Dalley Anatomy- 5th edition
- Guyton and Hall Physiology- 11th edition
- Talley and Oconner Clinical Examination- 4th edition
- some radiology textbook we got as a freebie in semester 2

I only bought Rhoades and half of Souhami.
the other half of souhamicame from a voucher my school gave me,
robbins came from my work when i left
and the others came from a 500 dollar book voucher i won.

I was wondering if anyone has any advice as to buying anatomy textbooks for students? I'm in first year med, and would like an anatomy textbook to take me though med school. Thanks in advance for any suggestions

Hello my fellow UMelb Year 1 meddy.

Just by the recommended Moore's clinical, and I gather you already have Anatomedia?

If doubts arise, just buy Moore's clinical AND Grey's student edition - can't go wrong :P

I heard Netter's Atlas is also pretty good - but slightly more expensive thought ($209, if I can recall correctly).
