Harrison's Principles of Internal Medicine

Common card · No. 498190

Harrison's Principles of Internal Medicine is an American textbook of internal medicine. First published in 1950, it is in its 22nd edition (published in 2025 by McGraw-Hill Professional) and comes in two volumes. Although it is aimed at all members of the medical profession, it is mainly used by internists and junior doctors in this field, as well as medical students. It is widely regarded as one of the most authoritative books on internal medicine and has been described as the "most recognized book in all of medicine." The work is named after Tinsley R. Harrison of Birmingham, Alabama, who served as editor-in-chief of the first five editions and established the format of the work: a strong basis of clinical medicine interwoven with an understanding of pathophysiology.
