Going to med school takes forever! Years of classes, internships, residencies -- when will it end?
Fortunately, it doesn't have to be so difficult. 'Med School in a Box' offers a complete medical education in a tiny metal box -- all for a very affordable tuition of $24.95. Assembled by the wise and witty editors of Mental Floss magazine, it features:
MED SCHOOL IN 96 PAGES: This minitextbook features legitimate information on Tools of the Trade (like the %$500 flashlight all practicing doctors are required to own) and Really Gross Anatomy (parts of the body you probably didn't know about), plus sections on surgery, pediatrics, neurology, obstetrics, and other standard med school rotations.
10 FAMOUS DOCTOR TRADING CARDS: They're all here – from Hippocrates to Benjamin Spock – with their portraits and important stats, on baseball-style trading cards.
5 SURGERY-AT-A-GLANCE CARDS: Quick reference information on How to Stop Bleeding, How to Treat a Snake Bite, How to Determine If a Body Is Dead, and much more.
5 EXTRA-CREDIT COURSE CARDS: Information that didn't fit in our 96-page textbook – but our attorneys claim we have a legal obligation to share it with you.
MINIMEDICAL BOARDS: Even Doogie Howser would have a tough time with these tantalising trivia questions. They come complete with detailed answers on an accordion-folded exam.
MENTAL FLOSS DIPLOMA (one side in Latin, reverse in English). Suitable for framing.
Med School in a Box makes a delightful gift for (1) would-be doctors, (2) current med students, and (3) doctors of all ages.
