Lots of topics,various formats,some various language editions.630 books in all, says they are "promoting free access to medical books".

I just took a look at the site and noticed that some of the books are out of date and thus not all that useful since we'd need to get more current information.

Hi Jon,
Yes I agree with your observation,some of it is definately not the latest and greatest- I would certainly not advise any surgeons to try and perform any brain surgeries based on the info on this link- but there are about 680 free medical related books organized by category- I'm thinking that it is not entirely useless.

No, not entirely useless. But, you do have to take a look at what information there is in these books and the published date in order to make an informed decision as to whether the book may bee to old to be of any use.

Could the fact that they are not all the latest and most up-to-date books be the reason they are giving them away?
