This is the ninth edition of Major’s Physical Diagnosis: An Introduction to the Clinical Process, authored by Mahlon H. Delp, M.D., and Robert T. Manning, M.D., and published by W.B. Saunders Company in 1981. This medical textbook is a comprehensive resource for students and professionals, offering a detailed introduction to the process of clinical diagnosis and physical examination. It includes bibliographies and an index, making it a practical reference tool for clinical education.

The maroon softcover shows moderate shelf wear, particularly along the edges and corners, with a noticeable crease on the upper right front corner and some scuffing on the bottom edge. The interior pages appear clean and intact with no writing or highlighting observed from the visible pages. The binding appears strong and the spine uncreased.

This is an excellent addition for collectors of vintage medical texts or for educational use in understanding historical approaches to clinical diagnosis.
