Medex Northwest

Fall, Winter, Spring - Book List

2003 - 2004

 

The following books may be purchased from the University Bookstore, South Campus - Medical Branch (books shipped postage free) (206) 543-6582/(877) 335-7323 or from Clarke & Stone Book Company in Spokane at (509) 838-0607/(800) 551-0799.  Yakima students may order from either source, but if you order from Clarke & Stone, designate your order as “MEDEX Yakima”.  All books are in the process of being ordered, but books required or recommended for Fall courses will probably not be available until mid-June or July.  The prices listed apply to both bookstores. 

 

The books are listed alphabetically and divided into three categories: Required Texts, Required Resources, and Recommended Texts. Following each listing are the courses for which the book is utilized (designated by þ).  The course for which the book is required is listed in bold.

 

Required Texts:  We are aware that clinical textbooks are expensive, and therefore have specifically chosen the textbooks that can be used in multiple courses and throughout both the Didactic and Clinical years.  Because of the frequency with which these books are utililized, you should not plan on using library or borrowed copies of required texts.

 

Required Resources:  Items listed are not assigned to a specific course, but are used in multiple courses.

 

Recommended Texts:  Texts listed in this section are not required, but highly recommended for additional background and course work. Texts will be available on reserve in the Health Sciences Library or at site libraries.

 

The Didactic year is divided into three quarters, Fall, Winter, and Spring. Texts for Winter and Spring repeat for both quarters.
