First Aid for the USMLE Step 1 2019, Twenty-ninth edition Review: MUCH improved compared to the 2018 edition; med student bible - A brief inspection reveals the addition of a HUGE number of new diagrams and pictures which improve the clarity of many, many concepts. As usual, great for any medical student getting ready for Step 1. As naturopathic medical students, we often use this 792-page bible to prepare for our first licensing exam and, no doubt, the entire cohort will be acquiring this bad boy. Some new diagrams/pictures include: 1) Mutations in DNA 2) Protein synthesis 3) Autosomal trisomies 4) Ethanol metabolism 5) Immunology was restructured and it reads more logically 6) Endo vs exotoxins 7) HIV diagnosis algorithm - GREAT diagram. 8) Some additions about the immunology of cancer (v. important) - can be found in the general pathology section 9) Hematology and oncology - rearranged order plus great diagrams about hematopoiesis, pro- and anticoagulation 10) MSK - lovely diagrams about radiculopathy 11) Very nice additions to the neuro section, e.g. lower extent of spinal cord 12) Some handy photos of real-life examples of embryo pathologies 13) Illustrations on the gonadal drainage 14) GI - more histological slides and embryo photos 15) Lots of diagrams in cardio/respiratory to complement the text, e.g. blood supply of myocardium 16) Many other minor tweaks :) Hope this helps meds students getting ready for their first licensing exams in 2019! Good luck, everyone. :) Review: Great material - Full of good information ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #1,774,006 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #437 in Pathology Clinical Chemistry (Books) #5,755 in Clinical Medicine | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 4.7 out of 5 stars (1,445) | | Dimensions | 8.5 x 1.1 x 10.8 inches | | Edition | 29th | | ISBN-10 | 1260143678 | | ISBN-13 | 978-1260143676 | | Item Weight | 3.8 pounds | | Language | English | | Print length | 816 pages | | Publication date | December 21, 2018 | | Publisher | McGraw Hill / Medical | ## Images ![First Aid for the USMLE Step 1 2019, Twenty-ninth edition - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71SDa2yb2ZL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ MUCH improved compared to the 2018 edition; med student bible *by G***S on December 26, 2018* A brief inspection reveals the addition of a HUGE number of new diagrams and pictures which improve the clarity of many, many concepts.

However, due to my exam being really close, I couldnt wait for the ebook to come out so I went ahead and ordered the hardcopy, and boy am I glad that I did! Not only does this edition have some newer content (eg immune evasion by cancer) but also the pre-existing information has been updated and in some cases rearranged in a much more presentable way (eg, the horrible Neurocutaneous Syndromes now seem less daunting). New images (eg histology slides for the Transplant rejection reactions), charts (eg Diagnosis of HIV) and tables (eg different radiculopathies of the lower extermity) are commendable. A minor glitch for me was that some of the pages had ink bleeds on them but that can be easily overlooked compared to the overall worth of this book.
