日本語であればこの程度の知識は定着していると断言できる方なら、この本一冊で事足りるのではないでしょうか。
詳細な受験案内(外国人用も)から必要十分な知識が詰まっています。座学がこれからという人は各教科のお勧め教科書も載っているので参考になります。
頻出テーマは大抵カバーできていて、逆にこれに載っていなければ、日本で学んだ知識でも十分対応できると考えてもいいと思います。あくまで個人の感想ですが。
問題集と合わせてまず一周してから、Kaplan QBankに移るのが定石でしょうか。
フルカラーになって図や写真は格段に見やすくなりましたが、色分けなど編集面においてカラーを活かしきれてない印象も受けます。

Lazy, full of mistakes, but now in color
2012/4/4
形式:ペーパーバック|Amazonが確認した購入
It is incomprehensible that a review book that simply summarizes other books, that changes so very little of its material every year, can have SO many mistakes. Seriously, do a search for First Aid Errata and you'll see the pdf with all the errors. It's put out by the same folks; they offer $10 for writing in with an error. It's 10 pages long, about 20 errors listed per page, just for the 2012 edition. I'm no math whiz, but that's like 2 grand worth of payouts. How about you pay the same for someone to actually READ the book before you publish it? There was a similarly long errata pdf last year for the 2011, so either they're not correcting old errors or they're managing to screw up whole new things. Who is editing these things? I mean, it's pretty much the same exact book every year!
Yes, they've gone to color. And that is appreciated. But giving someone stars for including color diagrams is, well, lame. This is 2012. Color has been around in print for some time now. They've even got it in movies, I hear.
And they even managed to screw up the colors! Green for inhibitory, red for stimulatory. Really? Someone's been taking too much Ethambutol.
First Aid is like the fat, lazy General Motors of the 70's. Consider themselves the Standard of the World, too complacent to fix their problems, much less improve their product (with the exception of this year's big move to color - Now you're on the trolley!). And everyone uses them because that's what the old folks used.
Where are you, Japanese First Aid?

Colorful update, Missing Sections
2012/2/2
形式:ペーパーバック
I have owned and used both 2010 and 2011 First Aid. This edition adds color headings, puts images with text, and spreads out the formatting. Overall, this is a great change.
However, because they so drastically changed the formatting, and seem to have little editorial oversight, they managed to omit entire subsections. While some sections, such as "Reportable Disease" may be ommitted for being too low yield, others such as the drug Hexamethonium, the Measures to Treat Risk Factors, etc., are missing entirely. Many of these items are listed in the index (perhaps even BOLDED), but lo and behold they are missing on the actual pages. I have finished studying about 20% of the book to a high level, and have found 10+ instances of this.
Not really a problem if you have a 2010/11, or use Doctors in Training/Kaplan as you can just annotate in. But, I think this is just such a sloppy way to make a book (combined with the thin, smeary paper everyone else has mentioned), that I lower it from 5 to 3 stars. Having various errata is fine; entire deletions are not.
Not a deal-breaker, and I would buy it over 2010/11, but just make sure you annotate b/c this book is just straight up missing stuff it says it contains.

Classic first aid, but now with colored diagrams
2011/12/30
形式:ペーパーバック|Amazonが確認した購入
Edit: 1/9/12
Changing my review to 4 stars. I just tried to highlighting as another review mentioned and it does indeed smear the ink a bit. But using a bit higher quality sharpie highlighters, it didn't really smear much, if at all. While I don't really highlight first aid (b/c everything's relevant and important), others might find it a flaw.
Edit: 1/6/12
After using for a week, I really have to say this update is MUCH better than previous updates. Is it perfect? No. Definitely not. But did they make a lot of changes for the better?
in the 2010 => 2011: the book came out almost identical, except for a changing the cover
in the 2011 => 2012: there are multiple changes, which in my personal opinion, is for the better. They took the colored platelets at the end and incorporated them into the text itself. Why is this beneficial? Well, it allows you to make faster associations. There've been many studies on memory that have shown pictures/diagrams etc will improve recall.
also, people complain about errors. All books have errors! But what makes First Aid so great is that they have an errata that is CONSTANTLY being updated. You'll be hard pressed to find any resource that does this as frequently.
----------
I received my copy in the mail this morning. I've looked through it for a few hours and here are my thoughts...
First Aid will always be amazing for the boards. This edition, in my opinion, far exceeds their usual yearly updates. They got rid of the individual colored images and integrated the diagrams/pictures into the text itself--NEXT to the related topic. The good thing is that they didn't over-do the pictures. First aid has always been, and always should be, a review/outline of the most pertinent material for step 1. They have not abandoned that purpose.
In summary, I believe this is a great updated edition of first aid. Must better than previous editions in which the only thing they updated was 2010 => 2011 on the cover. It's definitely a great buy!!
I'll try to update this with any errors or other thoughts.
