Medical Ebooks?
Hi guys, what's up?
I was just wondering if you guys knew of any site where one could purchase medical textbooks in ebook formats. Things like Janeway's Immunology and the like. Preferably in LRF format (or something which could be easily converted to it). Thanks in advance |

Medical books are lagging bhind the rest of non-fiction by quite a lot. Probably has to do with the massive tomes and the amount of work it takes to convert. Harrison's was up on Amazon for Kindles a while back, but was recently taken down.

That's too bad, I hate having to carry around these heavy tomes when I go to classes, I would love to have some of them in my trusty PRS700. Would certainly make studying anywhere easier...

i would have loved that in med school, too. Not that they had electronic readers in my day... I just found that eventually I had to leave them at home and run to the library when I needed to have them during the day.

Try looking via my website ebookprice.info - there's a couple of the bookstores I monitor which have textbooks in their inventory. Just did a quick search on "immunology" and there's 30 or 40 books which show up.
I'll be adding a new bookstore in the near future which specialises in textbooks, so that will also extend the range. Cheers Rachel |
