Hey. Has anyone seen or bought this book? It's a new offering from the Academy, likely an attempt to compete with Miller. If anyone has it, can they review it and compare to the Miller book?

Thanks!

I just received it... It is similar to miller but much more comprehensive (it's bigger than a phone book)... It also includes a book of study questions broken up into subject areas that is about 400 pages itself and is made up of several years worth of old self assessments and such... There are certain sections in Miller that I think are a little weaker compared to this area (basic science here is a bit better) and the peds section seems better in this book. The best part of the review is the question book otherwise if you have miller you can probably get by for the boards with it... Miller has treated me fine for OITE from internship (we're required to take it as intern through now as a PGY5) and I know its layout well for quick referencing....
