Currently $126.51 with shipping on Abebooks.

Here's a link to a pdf of a review in Family Medicine.

Default ¡SALE on a great H&PM Textbook!

So, I now also own:

Palliative Medicine, Expert Consult, Online + Print, Walsh D, Ed.
2009, Hardcover, 1520 Pages
ISBN13: 9780323056748
ISBN10: 0323056741
Publisher's List Price: US$215.00, currently marked down by half to US$ 107.50, with free shipping, but with sales tax as applicable! This is a steal!

Particularly, as I now think that overall this is the best book in-hand (esp. for aspiring academics), plus it gets updated online (of course only until this is the edition in print). So, probably worth sinking the 2 Benjamins + for it. But, now I think you got make your move if this sale is still on.

Hopefully this sales last until this gets posted to everyone's inbox in time to be useful.

Also, I now own:

Textbook of Palliative Medicine, Bruera E. et al. Ed.
ISBN13: 9780340966242
ISBN10: 0340966246
Paperback, 2009, 1095 pages
Publisher's List Price: US$ 99.50
Currently US$ 68.78 with shipping on Abebooks

Good bargain, a concise tour de force.

Cheers!
