Not bad of a book but could be better
The product was good and shipment in time. The content of the book itself is mediocre, but useful in a sense. I like how the organization of possible differentials fir specific symptoms encompass the majority of this book, but with my learning experience could be better. I do however can still honestly say this book is useful, but should only be used as a supplement to much more robust and better resources.

Simple
Moderate product, the differentials are limited. Probably good for first or second year students

Great book for ok the go learning
Great book for when you're out and about on wards/treatment units. Helped a lot with my studies. A bit bigger than 'pocket' size though.

Perfect for med students!
This book exceeded my expectations, every possible presentation that frequently pops up is all in here, plus so many other ones. It even lists which differentials are more common and which ones are rarer. Honestly, worth the money, feel like it will make studying way easier.
