This Book is great for urologists or primary care physicians. You can quickly look up almost all common urologic diseases, and find out what you need to know.
I liked this book a lot. While it is not the last work on most topics, it gives a very nice overview of LOTS of different things in urology. I think it is a very nice book for the urology resident or non-urology doc, as it gives a quick one or two page read on most topics in urology. It is also helpful as a jumping off point for the boards, since it hits on most major topics. I did a lot of making notes on the margins of this book, adding to the overview with more current info as well as crossing out things that I did not like or were a bit out of date. Even given that this is a very nice book that gives a lot of bang for your buck.
The material is very helpful. But the mechanism to search quickly some subject is awful. I have read the printed version and it is much easier to find out the subject. For example, you type prostate cancer and it returns more de 40 entries.
