About Us

Medical Textbooks Revealed: The Naked Truth, from the people who brought you Flesh and Bones is a website essentially written by medical students for medical students and aims to take the 'irk' out of the sometimes irksome task of choosing the right medical textbooks for you...who better to guide you through this maze than your peers and ensure you spend your precious cash in the very best way?

Current and graduate medical students are opening up and sharing their innermost thoughts and feelings about the Elsevier textbooks* out there and they certainly aren't shy about telling us what they like and what they don't! All the better for you to make a choice.

Elsewhere on the site you will come across the odd interjection from the team here at Naked Towers...because we do so hate to feel left out! 

We have tried to make it easy for you to find the reviews you are looking for and we think that we offer something unique to other sites out there. First of all you don't have to worry about wading through endless books which might not be quite the level you are after - all the books featured on this site are aimed directly at medical students. Even better, if you like you can filter reviews from students just from your school.  You'll notice, as an extra handy resource, as and when people are good enough to send their reading lists in, we post those here as well. 

Don't you find though that things are so much better when you get involved? You too can be a reviewer on Medical Textbooks Revealed: The Naked Truth, in fact we wholeheartedly encourage you. To become a reviewer you just need to create yourself a profile by completing a very quick and simple (we promise) registration process Create Profile and off you go...the world (well the site) is your oyster.

We really hope that you find this site and the reviews useful, that's what it's here for. We want to encourage your feedback on the reviews that you have found most helpful. Not least because the best / most helpful reviewers will get onto the leader board (oooh it's so formula one!) and for the top ten there will be regular prizes and special offers...so why not get reviewing and get yourself on the leader board. It's always good to have your say and you can also comment on reviews already written.  You never know, you could even make a friend or two along the way?
