,Hello my colleagues,
Let me to present to you “PSYCHIATRY NOTES For Medical Students”
,which presents the topics of Psychiatry Medicine in a new and practical way.
I would like to note that I have prepared a part of it during my personal study before the final
exam; As for the larger part, I completed it after the exam.
I would like to confirm that I prepared and compiled it from different sources that I mentioned
in the references at the end of the book, and my goal was to help you find one book in which
easy for you to access the information in an easy and interesting way.
In this book you will find the most important topics that may be scattered in other books and
references, I arranged, coordinated and presented them in the way I thought was the best.
I think that the study is completed when you read the topic well and then try to solve questions
on it, so; I allocated a large number of questions, and I put a short test at the end, which I hope
that all of you will succeed in answering it.
I would like to emphasize that this book is not a substitute for doctors' materials, references or
clinical round.
Finally, “Perfection Is For Allah”; you may find errors in this book, please send to me for that.
I wish you success Insha'Allah and that you get the maximum benefit possible from this book.
