自从戴维森的《医学原理与实践》70多年前首次出版以来，全球有超过200万名医学生、医生和其他健康专业人士拥有该书。这本经过彻底更新的教科书现已出版第24版，它描述了成人医学主要专业中最常见疾病的病理生理学和临床特征，并解释了如何识别、调查、诊断和管理这些疾病。戴维森的课程起源于斯坦利·戴维森爵士备受赞誉的课堂讲稿，它之所以经久不衰，是因为它跟上了现代医学的教学方式，并以易读、简洁、插图精美的格式提供了大量值得信赖的信息。

Davidson’s Principles and Practice of Medicine, 24th Edition
Well over two million medical students, doctors and other health professionals around the globe have owned a copy of Davidson’s Principles and Practice of Medicine since it was first published over 70 years ago. Now in its 24th Edition, this thoroughly updated textbook describes the pathophysiology and clinical features of the most frequently encountered conditions in the major specialties of adult medicine, and explains how to recognise, investigate, diagnose and manage them. Taking its origins from Sir Stanley Davidson’s much-admired lecture notes, Davidson’s has endured because it keeps pace with how modern medicine is taught and provides a wealth of trusted information in an easy-to-read, concise and beautifully illustrated format.
