Welcome to the Zebra Cards web site.

Zebra Cards is a book -- sort of. I wrote it, and the American College of Physicians published it. Zebra Cards was written for a professional medical audience. It's now in its second printing.

This site's main purpose is to keep the printed version of Zebra Cards up to date. It includes updated references and comments about each card. The site also includes one-click Medline searches for abstracts and articles that are similar to the articles cited in the book.

If you don't own a copy of Zebra Cards, or if you've never heard of it before, this website will give you an idea of what the book is all about. You can look at the book's table of contents, it's introduction, or a few sample cards.

We provide an introduction to zebras for non-medical readers and for medical readers.

Zebra Cards makes a wonderful gift for yourself -- or for that medically-minded person on your list.  Look at the sample cards and read what others say.

You can order from the American College of Physicians over the Internet or over the phone.  You can also order from Amazon.
