 Very good book July 29, 2007
9 out of 11 found this review helpful
I bought this book upon starting my residency and i have to say that i found it to be very useful. It covers all the infectious diseases, even those we might never see in our practice. the best part tough is that it includes empiric treatment guidelines, 2nd 3rd or even 4th line antimicrobial agents for every infection. This way it can solve the problem with patients being allergic to specific antibiotics, that many times are the mainstay in treating infectious diseases. I think this book can't serve its purpose any better than it does
Always awesome! June 5, 2007

The ID Bible!!! Love it! And the 8x5 size is so much easier to read and costs about the same! Keep it up!
The Sandford CD did not work August 23, 2007
5 out of 7 found this review helpful
I have been using the Sandford Guide for years. This time I decided to order the CD to download on my PDA. Vane illusion. I couldn't. I tried the technical support. After about one hour on the phone, they could not either. So I asked the technician to please transfer me to a customer service's representative to order the book and return the CD but he coulnd't because the technical support is given by an independent company! End result: I cannot return the CD to Amazon, the Sandford Guide people are unreachable. I felt cheated by this clever system. I accepted that I lost my money and had no choice but buy another book.

I work as a hospitalist in a busy community hospital. I use a commercial software product as a quick reference for other meds, but still stick with this classic reference for antibiotics and sensitivities. Small and lightweight, it doesn't take up much room in your pocket. Med students and residents in particular shouldn't leave home without it!
 Will be returning this one for certain March 16, 2008

The type is WAY too small in this book and the info is so busy it is ridiculous. Don't waste your money. You can buy the larger print edition if this is your reference choice but I had been using the John Hopkins guide from 2006 which is considerably more user friendly. I am returning this one and planning to look for the newer edition of the Johns Hopkins guide.
