Customer Review

I found this book very helpful and to the point. I always had a lot of grey areas when it came to medical ethics and decision making throughout my training but this book really cleared out everything.

I would definitely recommend this book to not only the students who are giving their board, but also to those who are going through their medical school program any where in the world.
