Review: Your Trusty Companion for Organ Systems: First Aid for the Basic Sciences, Third Edition - The Third Edition of "First Aid for the Basic Sciences: Organ Systems" is nothing short of remarkable. It's the kind of resource that deserves a special place on every medical student's bookshelf. From the very first page, it's evident that the authors have crafted an invaluable companion for students navigating the intricacies of organ systems. This book is a comprehensive guide that simplifies complex topics. It's the bridge between classroom learning and effective board exam preparation. The content is presented in a well-organized and easy-to-follow format, making it a go-to reference during study sessions. One of the features I appreciate most is the integration of clinical correlations. It's not just about memorizing facts; it's about understanding the clinical relevance of what you're learning. The book excels in connecting the dots and helping you think like a physician. The tables, diagrams, and illustrations are thoughtfully designed, adding clarity to the material. They are a boon when revising complex anatomical structures and physiological processes. Additionally, the practice questions at the end of each chapter offer a valuable opportunity to test your knowledge. What's truly sweet about this book is its readability. It's engaging and doesn't read like a dry textbook. The authors have a knack for explaining complex concepts in an approachable and relatable way, making learning a joy rather than a chore. In conclusion, "First Aid for the Basic Sciences: Organ Systems" is a must-have for any medical student. It's the comprehensive resource you've been searching for to excel in your organ systems studies. If you're serious about acing your exams and becoming a confident, knowledgeable physician, this book is your key to success. It's the best investment you can make in your medical education. Don't miss out!
Review: Great alternative to Crush Step 1 - I'm a second year medical student studying for Step 1 alongside my classes (my school pretty much follows an organ based / block curriculum). My main resources for Step are First Aid, Pathoma, UWorld, BRS Physiology, and Sketchy. I felt like I needed something to supplement First Aid and I'd heard that Crush Step 1 is great as an additional single resource. I tried it out, but I personally didn't really like the format (written paragraphs). This book adds similar background information (including additional images, tables, mnemonics, and key facts) but in outline format. Basically, it's a nice alternative to Crush Step 1. I would not use both. A few things: - If you can afford it, it's worth buying the new version. I compared the 2nd/3rd editions and the organization of the 3rd edition is better. - It closely follows the Organ Systems chapters of FA so it's easy to use the two resources together (aka you could easily use this book to annotate First Aid) - Each Organ System chapter starts on a new page, so you can unbind the book and separate it by system. Good luck!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fantastic and incredible improvement over the previous version
*by A***R on May 30, 2017*

Fantastic and incredible improvement over the previous version. It is much more organized and it has general information, clinical presentation, diagnosis, and treatment of the high-yielding pathologies in that order. Key facts, mnemonics, clinical correlations and, flash backs are on the sides and provide great additional details. I recommend this book and applaud the authors and editors for this incredible improvement over the last book.
