Abstract

In this article, we examine the pros and cons of textbook vs. journal articles. We suggest that textbooks serve as an essential knowledge provider for colleagues, especially at their entry level, but to advance clinical and academic capability, journal articles remain an important and unreplaceable tool for continuous professional development. Currently multi-author review articles provide one of the best sources of information, providing recommendations that are authoritative yet balanced. We explored if there are options to combine the best of both these platforms of information.

教科书与期刊文章:如何欣赏和理解它们的局限性。
在这篇文章中,我们研究了教科书文章与期刊文章的利弊。我们建议,对于同事来说,教科书是必不可少的知识来源,尤其是在入门阶段,但为了提高临床和学术能力,期刊文章仍然是持续专业发展的重要和不可替代的工具。目前,多作者评论文章提供了最好的信息来源之一,提供了权威而平衡的建议。我们探讨了是否有办法将这两个信息平台的优点结合起来。
