General Medicine Education Publishing Market - Global Industry ...

General Medicine or internal medicine is a branch of medicine which
deals with the prevention, diagnosis and subsequent treatment of adult
diseases. The specialists who deal with this branch of medicine are
called ?internists? and ones who work with children are called
pediatricians. General Medicine is further specialized depending on the
organ or organ systems, such as cardiology, anesthesiology,
endocrinology, nephrology etc. On an average 75,000 medical students
choose internal medicine as a career option annually around the world.?

This severely undermines the quality of education. Printed books and literature are thus the major tools of spreading education here.
