I got this small book during my first stint in the oncology clinic after which I realized I knew very small about clinical oncology. AC, FOLFOX, Gy’s….a really foreign language to me. so far this is helping to clear things up. the chapters are brief enough so you can get through them during some down time, yet still give a excellent overview. not sure how helpful this would be for boards, but I feel i am learning a lot of stuff from it. Note: I have not read the heme chapters yet

I bought this book in my second year of Internal Medicine Residency for my Hematology and Oncology rotation. I found a fantastic ally in this book because it covered so many topics in 380 (pocket size) pages. The few things gone in this book were cancer screening guidelines, and details on rare malignancies (eg GIST, somatostatinoma etc)
The overall coverage of the different types of cancer was brilliant for the most common ones, including cytogenetic workups. I managed a few times really to impress an attending having read these details from the book. I also loved very much the blood products transfusion chapter and the WBC, RBC, PLT disorders as well as the coagulation chapters. Overall very helpful, covering everything you will need for this level of training. Maybe it may possibly work out for a first year fellow as well, but not for the advanced reader.
I need to warn you though that it is not a textbook of Hematology and Oncology and like my attendings were saying consider Wintrobe’s Clinical Hematology (2 Vol. Set) and Abeloff’s Clinical Oncology: Expert Consult Premium Edition: Enhanced Online Features and Print when you reckon you know everything…
