The go-to textbook for medical students
Designed to be as easy to understand as it is comprehensive, Kumar & Clark's Clinical Medicine is the definitive guide for medical students and doctors in training.

Revised and updated to reflect the structure of modern medical care, an all-new Acute Medicine chapter focuses on the initial, problem-based assessment of the unwell patient. Chapters on Medical Specialties explore the diagnosis and management of patients with chronic disease across the spectrum of systems-based disorders. Sections on The Practice of Medicine, Medicine and the world and Medicine Throughout Life explore medicine in its wider context, addressing the health needs of the population as well as specific patient groups.

This book has been the must-have text for medical students and doctors in training for over 35 years. The 11th edition has been fully updated and restructured to suit the needs of a contemporary audience.

"I suspect this book is equally well known to both undergraduate and postgraduate medics. It was first published in 1987, so I suspect it has been widely used in medical schools as well as by doctors looking to refresh or use it for exams. It also transcends and offers support to primary and secondary care practitioners, and few medical textbooks can claim to cover all these demographic groups.... This book seems to cover an amazing number of topics in significant depth, and all the main specialties are covered as well as young adults and the elderly plus obstetric medicine.... As in keeping with modern textbooks, there is a top-class layout with illustrative figures and boxes and an excellent use of colour and plenty of text that is easy to read.... [it] is quite frankly fantastic, a modern review of clinical medicine with excellent, wide-ranging coverage, and it will appeal to a wide audience, from medical students to established healthcare professionals." Review by Dr Harry Brown, Geriatric Medicine Journal (Pavilion Health Today), January 2026User reviews, Amazon UK:“So in depth yet concise and organised. Perfect for a medical student. Really helped revise for my pre med exams and also do my coursework. Great value for money. Really great structure and layout. Made the content far more readable than what was supplied in lectures.”“Great textbook and if you only have the money to buy one I’d recommend this one.”“Best book for anyone from the Medical Profession. Wish I had found it earlier….”
