Must-read 20 introductory books on medicine
What are the 20 medical introductory books that must be read? The following are 20 must-read books that I have carefully arranged for you. I hope you like it!

The first part of medical popular science books

1, drug discovery? From the hospital bed to wall street.

If you want to give a recommendation index to the books on this list, this book is undoubtedly a perfect score. Although I haven't seen it? Even so, it doesn't hinder the perfect score of this book, because no book can get such affirmation. Almost all the teachers and classmates around me recommend it, and all the professionals recommend it. Such a wide range of praise has made it quickly become one of the must-read books in this field.

From the catalogue, the contents of this book basically cover all aspects of drugs, from research and development to listing to application to legislation. Extensive coverage enables beginners to quickly understand the drug market. In particular, its content is basically linked to the market, which undoubtedly makes it impossible for any professional who wants to engage in business to refuse this book. However, the wide coverage makes this book not accurate enough, so it does not reach the depth of professional articles. At the same time, if a child who is determined to go to the hospital knows nothing about business, it may be a bit boring to read. However, no matter how old you are, no matter how many years you have been in business, as long as you haven't read it, this book is worth reading, isn't it?

The author is also reading (I will dedicate some thoughts to the readers later).

It is worth mentioning that the Chinese translator of this book and researcher Wang Mingwei from Shanghai Institute of Pharmacology, China Academy of Sciences led the team to translate another original book? The future of drug discovery: who decides which diseases to treat? The future of drug discovery: who will decide which diseases to treat? ",the book foresees the evolution and trends in the next 25 years, full of wisdom and stories; This is a must-read book for scientists, technicians, doctors, investors, pharmaceutical officials, journalists, politicians and even patients who care about drug discovery.

2. Drug history

Those who study art should read art history, those who study architecture should read architectural history, and those who study medicine should read medical history. Undoubtedly, people who study pharmacy should also have their own medical history. This book should be regarded as a masterpiece in the history of medicine, although it is not so famous, and even a little readable? Time jump? But this is something that can't be helped. Who makes the process of drug discovery so tortuous and trivial, and the variety of drugs so vast and rich? This book is sorted by drug type, so it enhances the leap of time. But this does not prevent anyone who wants to know the interesting or boring stories behind drugs from reading this book. The advantage of this book is that the history of drugs is comprehensive, and the anecdotes behind drug discovery will not be boring if they are told in Kan Kan. The disadvantage is that the characters appear repeatedly, and the time jump is strong (you should know that pharmacists in the past were not vegetarian, and this is often found this year, and it will be more sensational next year).

3. "Learn from a genius? The establishment of a scientific dynasty "

This book is one of the contemporary popular science masterpieces, which shows that this book is of great significance. This book is intended to talk about the relationship between teachers and students in the American scientific community, and its choice is from the perspective of pharmacology. Therefore, this book is often used as an introductory popular science bibliography of pharmacology. Through documentary description, the author tells the characters and stories of pharmacologists one after another, showing the vigorous development of pharmacology and the relationship between mentor and apprentice. You are quite easily shocked by the enthusiasm of these scientists. This book is basically arranged in chronological order, so it is much clearer than the last one, but it is still a bit confusing? This is because these scientists are too mobile. Look at our scientists here. Basically, they all died of old age in one unit. At the same time, you can't expect such a book to really tell you the mechanism of action of drugs.

4. "deadly bacteria? Superbacteria self-report

If the mechanism of drug action is expounded, this book is undoubtedly the clearest and most professional one in the recommended bibliography. Unfortunately, this book only talks about antibiotics, which is too narrow compared with other books. However, this does not prevent this book from becoming my favorite. On the one hand, I am really fascinated by antibiotics. On the other hand, this book was written by China people, and its language style and ideas are more comfortable to read, much better than those hard translated books. At the same time, the author's brushwork is humorous and the content is practical, so there is no need to worry about falling asleep while reading. After reading this book, you have basically understood half of the contents of antibiotics in pharmacology books, and the rest are just in-depth reading textbooks. However, like the book of pharmacology, the content of this book is very old. Gentamicin and streptomycin have disappeared from the market in Shanghai, but this book still remembers these two old lovers. Some applications are also quite different from the current guidelines. But this book is behind the times after all, and it can't collect the latest information. Once published, it means that its information has fallen behind. But this does not prevent the beginning readers from using him as an introductory book to understand the specialty, and at the same time understand the disadvantages of this clinical medication, and even you will see the bad habits of people around you. Of course, colleagues above junior year are also strongly recommended to read it as a novel, not as a professional book.

5. Survival of patients

Patient's Survival is a very famous medical popular science book, which is recommended in Shell and Zhihu's book list. It reveals our misunderstanding of the disease and subverts the thinking of ordinary people. Of course, once again, the modern guide almost subverts it a lot. But some classic ideas are always shining there.

6. "The fourth virus"

The type of medical popular science books represented by the fourth kind of virus is autobiographical. Its author is an adventurer in the story. Entering this mysterious land of Africa, unknown viruses attack people here one after another, and scientists bravely and professionally fight the virus. This is a suspense book, which made me feel the danger and unknown of infectious diseases, let me see the fanaticism of virologists, and let me go to the road of anti-infection in running all the way without looking back. This is just a personal suggestion. This is my first professional popular science book. Although autobiographical and not so professional, it really infected me. This kind of power is irreplaceable. There are no best books in the world, only better ones, but the books that infect you and make you fall in love with this subject are the most priceless for you.

7. What only doctors know

This book is not a classic, but a best seller. But to tell the truth, this book is still good, but it lacks the precipitation of time. The author is Zhang Yu, an obstetrician and gynecologist of Peking Union Medical College, and she is talking about women's bodies. The title of the book is good, and it is also quite gimmicky. Unfortunately, there are some misunderstandings about women's bodies. I'm afraid that the expected medical shady will disappoint the readers. If you are a girl, I recommend you to study. If you are a boy, I recommend you to buy a book for your sister.

8. "The Road to Medicine"

This is the real medical shady book. The mind is really dwarfed by it. Perhaps the biggest failure of "The Mind" was that it was made into a series, which led to the deletion of some contents. The exposure of medical ethics is true, but sometimes it is biased towards doctors. Especially in the end, the protagonist left the hospital under the pressure of the media, which made people feel sad and had no theme of the soul. This may also be the reason why it has not been officially recommended. But it's also a novel. Read it.

9. Subversion of health care: personal health revolution in the era of big data.

The future medical field will soon be formed by wireless sensors, genomics, imaging technology and electronic health information? Destructive innovation? !

In the new medical era, everyone can be completely defined at the individual level, instead of making medical diagnosis at the group level as it is now. Group doctors will screen breast cancer, prostate cancer and other diseases on a large scale, prescribe the same drugs and doses for the same diagnosis, and do not need to deal with the special circumstances of individual patients.

Since the 20th century, the absolute authority and paternalistic position of doctors in medical activities have been shaken, and patients can make full use of information, network and various tools to participate more in the decision-making of self-medical management and health management. Future doctors should not play the role of knowledge warehouse, but become knowledge managers, and should communicate and care more with patients, provide decision support for patients, or help patients make decisions and become partners of smart patients.

Therefore, if you want to know about the future journey of medicine, you must read this book.

The second part is a professional article (inclined to the direction of clinical pharmacy and pharmacology)

1, pharmacological basis of Goodman Gilman therapy.

I'll be impressed if someone who studies pharmacology or clinical medicine says he hasn't read this book? Please make up for it yourself? As a classic work of pharmacology, it has almost become the standard textbook of international pharmacology. Even the master mentioned in Learning from Genius should read this book first. Compared with those pharmacological books in China, the content of this book is relatively fresh and correct, in other words, its content is not out of date. Even the translated version of the tenth edition in my hand is much ahead of the newly published pharmaceutical books in China in content and ideas, not to mention the thirteenth edition and the latest fourteenth edition. Again, this book is absolutely out of date, and some of his drugs are out of date, even eliminated, and he still relishes it. However, after all, people are pharmacological books, and classic drugs must be discussed. From this perspective, if you want to know about new drugs, this book is not the best choice.

2. Drug Clinical Information Reference and Clinical Drug Instructions

Speaking of new drugs, let's start with this book. These two books are one book, which is updated once a year. They are published by Sichuan Kangmei Company. As a company focusing on painkillers, it is really more interested in collecting drug instructions and information than Lilac Garden. Hard to understand. But this is a good thing, after all, it is convenient for us. It basically contains the information of all domestic listed drugs, including the dosage and experimental data of foreign countries. It really keeps pace with the times ~ in view of the annual update and practicality of this book, it really can't be said that it is out of date. The prescription names of drugs are all in English, which is convenient for everyone to show off during their internship. Of course, after reading the catalogue, you will understand that it is impossible to remember all the medicines?

Don't tell me you memorized the GRE. You know, the vocabulary of gorillas is much better than that of cephalosporins, because the prescription names of a class of drugs are too similar. I tell you, this book is very expensive. The library has it. You can check it out, but it's not the latest version. 90% of the medicines are basically the same, so look, it doesn't matter. For children who want to go to the clinic, it is better to find a way to get one. There are too many places to use, similar to Xinhua dictionary, all of which are drug assistants who kill lilac garden. Kangmei engages in activities on clinical pharmacists' online every year, which can be exchanged with new instructions and revised versions in the past one or two years.

3. Clinical pharmacy theory and practice

Teacher Cai's works. No matter what you say about my flattery, you can't erase the highlights of this book. Far more reliable than previous clinical medical books. The content is comprehensive, well written, the materials are novel, there are case studies, and the empty content is much less. It's worth reading and rereading. Basically, after reading it, don't read any other books about introduction to clinical medicine. You can walk to the professional department. For example, if you are interested in TDM, you should find something to read about it.

4. "Drug Therapy"? Pathophysiological methods "

The classics of foreign drug therapy, and the handwritten version. Reading is highly recommended. Unfortunately, I don't have a Chinese version in my hand, so I read it slowly.

5. Pharmacology (English Case Analysis Series of Planning Textbooks of the Ministry of Health)

I have to say that the quality of Zhou's book is quite high, among which I recommend this book as a masterpiece. On the one hand, I really exercised my English, on the other hand, the case is appropriate. Learning pharmacology or clinical medicine, case is the best teacher. A classic case can make you remember several knowledge points for life. If you think this book is difficult in Britain, you can read Clinical Cases Analysis of Internal Medicine first. Bilingual textbooks.

6. biopharmaceutics and pharmacokinetics

I think this book is the peak classic of pharmacokinetics in China, which is very good. I just don't understand it for the first time, you know? China people are used to simple questions, which is probably reflected here.

7. Applied biopharmaceutics and pharmacokinetics

This is a translation series of foreign pharmaceutical monographs. Rich in content, easy to understand, followed by exercises.

8. Principles of Clinical Pharmacology

The general introduction of clinical pharmacology in China is aimed at the use of drugs for various systemic diseases. First, he talked about the content of drug therapy instead of others, and second, it was really not as good as the book on drug therapy. This book is a foreign textbook of clinical pharmacology, which talks about the experimental methods used in clinical pharmacology. Even if it is clinical medicine, it is necessary to learn.

9. Medication medical record manual

It's hard for me to understand that this book is Drug Therapy? Handbook of pathophysiological methods? Well, they say it's a set of books, but I'm just China? The advantage of this book is that the case is very good and the thinking behind it is quite detailed. The disadvantage is that there are only four situations that can be answered? So I suggest reading it several times and then communicating with my colleagues.

10, knight color pharmacology

The author of this book, Dr. Frank H. Netter, is a doctor, a teacher and a painter. It perfectly combines his occupation and professional knowledge. As early as the 1940s (when it was still hand-painted), he began to write and draw books on medical maps, and has been engaged in this business ever since. He believes that clarification is the goal. No matter how beautifully drawn a medical illustration is, it is of little value if it cannot clearly express the medical point of view.

It is precisely because of the exquisite drawings that can accurately express the theme that these books have won high praise, and he himself is also known as the medical profession? Michelangelo? !

1 1, his internal medicine department

Seriously, if you put it here, it is estimated that besides the students of clinical medicine, who will chew such a thick book? However, if you need to deal with doctors at work, I still suggest reading some of this book. At least you can understand what the doctor said. Of course, it's also a good idea for you to send him a copy of his internal medicine. Especially for those future cows who attach importance to professionalism. As for the great gods, you'd better give up this idea. This is a necessary book for others, and it is estimated that everyone has it.
