This book is great with a very wide range of material and plenty of detail, and should serve as an excellent reference for medical students getting to grips with new conditions; as pathophysiology serves as a bridge between basic science and clinical medicine, this book should be read before delving into something like kumar & clarke. (As the title suggests...)
I used the 4th edition, I'm sure the 5th will be even better.
The only downsides are the total lack of colour pictures throughout (even in the dermatology chapter!!), and that the reader is often confronted with page after page of small print text. That said however, the material is full of golden nuggets and the illustrations have hopefully been improved in the new edition.
Buy it and pass your exams.
