174 Cases in Medicine Atlas and Commentary There is no shortage of books on internal medicine. The basic requirement remains the same—to impart useful knowledge. It becomes quite monotonous to read a book containing only printed text: Images come as welcome diversion. It is said that an image is worth a hundred words. Arepresentative image followed by interesting discussion should provide a good platform for happy learning—it is next best to the learning directly from the patient—which, though ideal, is not always practical as one does not get to see the wide variety of patients during the limited exposure to patients during their clinical postings / rotations. This book is a sincere effort in this direction. Each image has a story to tell, a point to make and a lot to offer in the form of firsthand knowledge. The reader will derive much happiness while indulging in this book and will be benefitted by it too!
