Rating: - Recommended for nurse practitioner students
Information is well organized. I have found this to be a good supplement to my nurse practitioner text books. It puts diagnosing common complaints into a succinct and understandable process.
Rating:  - Excellent Reference Book
It's an excellent resource book to be used as a complement to other textbooks. Topics are discussed in a straight forward manner allowing the reader to focus just on the important aspects of a diagnosis. I will absolutly recommend this book.
Rating:  - Don't buy this book
If you want a book that really gives you differentials, buy Field guide to beside diagnosis instead. It is a lot less money and is soooooo much better.

Rating: - Differential Diagnosis Common Complaints
I totally love this book. It is very user friendly and has helped me tremendously in Nurse Practitioner school when doing case studies. It is organized by the symptom, not the disease, which makes it very nice and easy to use. It is simple, the reading is not too intense, and a good tool for practice/school.
