Dr. Fischer's one after kaplan Behav Sc & Psych , also if u like HY, BRS , so many even the A+L Exm & Board Review by ?? Hanna or Hannha .
But as hand book the smaller size will b all HY , but may b more in amazon site , check rating, buyers etc at amazon site.

But Kap Behav Sc, Psch plus Dr. Fischer's Ethics are already alot, though not hand books. Ethics how could it b understandable if hand book, it need alot of discussion, explaination, argument, statement to know ethics well .

OK, maybe I should articulate this issue in a clearer fashion. I personally find the most challenging part of B. science to be ethics, mainly because I havn’t spent much time in the clinic and also due to health care system differences. So I was looking for a textbook or a handbook solely devoted for ethics that is going to be tested on step1. BRS and Kaplan LN are written in the form of cuewords, shorts phrases and bullets and therefore are insufficient in providing me with a complete understanding of the concepts.

So basically I’m looking for a textbook about ethics.

Also, I’ve heard numerous times that dr. Fischer has written a book about medical ethics though I couldn’t find them either on Amazon or Blackwell. Shwe, could you please post the complete title? Also, is the book mainly aimed for step2?

Thanks in advance

I'm not aware of any enlish written Ethics textbook.

The book written by Dr Conrad Fisher : Kaplan Medical USMLE Medical Ethics: The 100 Cases You are Most Likely to See on the Test (Kaplan USMLE) (Paperback), and Amazon sells it : http://www.amazon.com/Kaplan-Medical-USMLE-Ethics...

Even you were not asking for it, maybe you know about it, here is the web link for online ethical cases : http://depts.washington.edu/bioethx/topics/index....



Good luck !
