Text book of medicine by K V Krishna Das


This volume has evolved through four editions, the fourth one was published in 2002. The first edition was introduced as ‘A Short Textbook of Medicine’, now it has increased in the volume of contents and improved in its quality, commensurate with the quantitative and qualitative advancements in medical information. Six years is too long a gap for a textbook to be up-to-date and useful, but the demand among students and teachers were the guidelines to continue with the fourth edition until 2008.

As mentioned earlier, the book has been given a new direction, both in its get up and format, so as to include the latest information and present it in a student-friendly manner. This book has been designed to include the up-to-date information obtainable from print material and electronic data and has been presented in a simple language in form of direct statements, so as to make the matter more vivid and comprehensible to the medical students and doctors in India and the neighbouring countries coming from different social and language backgrounds. In areas where more detailed information is desirable for the practitioners and the postgraduate students, authentic reviews and original works are referred to.

Several new figures, many of them taken personally by the contributors from their own clinical practice and flow charts and tables have been added. Along with several chapters a short summary is given to serve as a ready reckoner for the students preparing for the examination or the busy practitioners who have only limited time at their disposal.

This volume is intended for the use of undergraduate and postgraduate students of medicine, dental sciences and other allied subjects, students preparing for entrance examinations and practitioners working in India and the neighbouring countries.

All the sections have been thoroughly revised. The number of contributors has also increased including teachers in specialities who have made their mark in their respective specialisation.

The first edition of the “Short Textbook” was produced in 1986 to fulfil a long-felt and widespread need among the undergraduate and postgraduate students, majority of whom relied on class notes or handbooks written on the various subjects by several authors. Many had no access to textbooks and the big volumes available were beyond their understanding. Comprehensive textbooks catering to the needs of the undergraduate medical students written by Indian authors were only a handful. Books published in other countries are quite freely available to our students, but naturally their emphasis is on the conditions prevailing in those countries.

The medical problems of India are unique as the peculiar disease–spectrum here is a blend of what is seen in the affluent countries with what is seen in most developing countries. This Textbook of Medicine has been written with this picture in mind. The section on tropical diseases, which usually gets a separate deal in most of the western textbooks, has been dovetailed into the other sections such as infections, physical agents, nutrition and others to improve the understanding of these subjects. Almost the whole of India is in tropical belt and therefore diseases rampant in tropical countries with a few exceptions like trypanosomiasis, onchocerciasis and others are present in all parts of the country.

This book has its companion volume “Clinical Medicine” third edition edited by me and published by the same publishers in 2005. It gives in detail the clinical aspects of medical practice and investigations. The reader is referred to “Clinical Medicine” for further details on physical examination, clinical symptoms, signs and investigation procedures.
