The #1 selling medical textbook worldwide, Harrison's has defined internal medicine for millions of clinicians and students. The new Seventeenth Edition retains Harrison's acclaimed balance of pathobiology, cardinal signs and manifestations of disease, and best approaches to patient management, yet has been massively updated to give you an innovative array of bold new features and content.

# Expanded, modernized illustration program with more than 800 brand-new, additional illustrations—a 40% increase over the previous edition. This valuable new collection includes even more great depictions of pathophysiological processes, decision-speeding algorithms, clinical photographs, essential radiology images, an atlas of EKG tracings, and full color depictions of key pathological specimens—all designed to enhance learning and clinical application of the chapter material.

# Brand new, reader-friendly text design optimizes the full-color format. Even faster access to acclaimed features such as the "Approach to the Patient" boxes and "Treatment" boxes, graduated colors in tables to facilitate at-a-glance reference, illustration and table citations highlighted in bold, and numerous other changes speed you through the great Harrison's content quicker than ever.

# An expanded, innovative focus on global health. Harrison's 17th edition features brand new chapters such as "Global Considerations in Medicine" by Jim Kim and Paul Farmer, and the "Global Epidemiology of Cardiovascular Disease". In addition, many chapters feature a brand new Global Considerations icon, which identifies important epidemiological, diagnostic, and therapeutic distinctions between global regions to aid in the diagnosis and management of specific diseases.

# Global Advisory Board comprised of 11 prominent medical experts from Asia, Europe, and South America.

# Revision of the popular On Line Learning Center, which offers more skill-sharpening self-assessment questions and answers, plus additional case studies for helping you apply Harrison's content to the daily care of patients.
