Harrison's Principles of Internal Medicine
From Self-sufficiency
Harrison's Principles of Internal Medicine is an American textbook of internal medicine. First published in 1950, it is presently in its seventeenth edition (published in February 2008 by McGraw-Hill). Although it is aimed at all members of the medical profession, it is mainly used by internists and junior doctors in this field, as well as medical students.[citation needed]
The work is named after Tinsley R. Harrison of Birmingham, Alabama, who served as editor-in-chief of the first five editions and established the format of the work - a strong basis of clinical medicine interwoven with an understanding of pathophysiology.
