This classic text is much beloved by medical students and physicians-in-training throughout the English-speaking world, as its many editions indicate. It is chock full of the pearls of clinical wisdom that students and practitioners treasure, and many of these lessons apply to medicine in general. The book was well characterized by a reviewer of an earlier edition for The New England Journal of Medicine: 'If only one book about surgery could be made available to physicians from all specialties, it should probably be Silen's recent revision of Cope's Early Diagnosis of the Acute Abdomen. Since the book first appeared, it has remained the classic treatise on the initial approach to abdominal pain'. Because acute, severe abdominal pain is still a common problem whose misdiagnosis can result in quick death, each generation of beginning physicians is faced with the urgency of learning to make a diagnosis in this high-anxiety situation, and they appreciate the wise, humane, precisely detailed guidance offered by Cope and Silen. For the 22nd Edition, Dr. Silen has again updated the text in a respectful but significant way. He has added a chapter on the increasing disorder of diverticulitis, reexamines the use of analgesics, emphasizes the costs of over-testing, and updates all recommendations regarding trauma, radiologic studies, and therapeutic recommendations.

Timeless medical book - with a clinical approach to evaluating the acute abdomen written by seasoned practitioners, and updated with latest diagnostics. A must read for all in primary care and emergency medicine.By dayton, ohio
This book came as a surprise to me. Having finished the residency some time ago already I was a bit disappointed that it was never even mentioned in our studies. Generations of med-students and residents in Europe and US seem to have used it (as the number of editions show) but for some reason the book is not considered to be important in Latvia - as of May, 2014, none of the libraries have any edition of it.By Eduards Krustins
But I was happy to find out that it's contents were very familiar. Reading it can be compared to a walk in an old park. One doesn't go there to find details about every tree or plant, but instead enjoys the view and the gardener's work. And it's the same with this book. It has no references and asks the reader to take most of the facts at face value. But the structure of the text is well planned, the language has been polished over the years and it's clear how every sign and symptom adds to the whole picture.
That all together makes the reading an enjoyable experience.Although the author's belief in necessity to make the correct diagnosis just by clinical means seem to border with obsession. But then again without it it's nearly impossible to achieve perfection.
Good Book
