FIRST AID FOR THE NBDE PART 1 2/E (First Aid Series) (Pt. 1)

Customer Reviews:

Book is full of errors

By I. Kawas - August 1, 2009

This book (2nd ed.) is generally a good overview of topics you should know for part 1. But it has many errors which make me question the validity of the material presented (are there more errors that I'm not catching?)

There are numerous typos including "adduction" instead of "abduction;" page 88 shows a figure of a heart with transposition of the great vessels; however the figure is presented as a normal heart.

page 173 says the outer cortex of lymph nodes have germinal nodes containing T cells. this is wrong.

The germinal follicles actually contain proliferating B cells; T cells are found scattered in the deep cortical zone (paracortex)

on page 174 it says FSH stimulates lactogenesis (milk production), this is not true; milk production is stimulated by prolactin.

definitely read some "real" books before you pick up this one. I hope they fix these glitches in the 3rd ed.

Good review

By 00AlanJ - January 15, 2012

This book is a nice run through prior to boards although I would not lean on it as a comprehensive study guide. If you are looking to pass, this is great. If you want the 90's, you can still use this, but don't let it be your only source.

OK for a comprehensive review

By E. Renk "er" - May 2, 2009

Since there are not many comprehensive NBDE Part 1 review books out there, this book is good for providing an outline on what to study. You definitely need to look up more information to fully learn the material, as some subjects are only touched on, and some information is left out. There are some annoying things: a good amount of typos, and the writers tend to use their own acronyms without explaining what they are. It's almost like you're reading someone's notes from class that made sense to the person who took the notes, but not to you.
