In this edition , I have attempted to describe THE STEPs in History taking and in Physical

So, I mention a history CASE SHEETs of many medical branches and I review all the chapters in this book , and add some OSCE stations that make this book one of the most important resources in HISTORY TAKING and OSCEs Stations. I hope this book will be more of a teaching book than just a text-book , which will be
read many times during your basic and higher medical training ..
The continuing success of this book indicate that it helps to fill the deficit that exist in the
other books..
