Features: This book is one of the series textbooks for the 7-year clinical medicine program for the 21st century curriculum in medical colleges across the country. It can also be used for teaching in 5-year undergraduate and graduate programs. For 5-year undergraduate students, it can focus on basic knowledge and skills training in literature and literature retrieval while appropriately adjusting elective content based on teaching hours. The book consists of 8 chapters and 27 sections, with some important practical and reference appendices between chapters and at the end. An index is provided at the end of the book, and several review questions are listed after each chapter. Generally, answers can be easily found after reading the textbook, thinking, or basic skill training. The authors attempt to inspire students' interest in learning through these questions. When designing the content structure framework, special consideration was given to the unique needs of medical clinical and research for literature information, as well as students' cognitive patterns during the learning process. In the conclusion, important concepts covered in the course, such as literature, literature retrieval, retrieval languages, CD-ROM database retrieval, and remote database retrieval, are briefly and clearly explained. This provides a solid foundation for medical students who are new to this field to learn the subsequent chapters of the course.
