“Covering nearly every possible topic in the field of medicine, the book
begins with a phenomenal overview of clinical medicine, discussing
important topics such as global medicine, decision-making in clinical
practice, the concepts of disease screening and prevention, as well as
the importance of medical disorders in specific groups (e.g. women,
surgical patients, end of life). The extensive chapters that follow
focus on a symptom-based presentation of disease and then illness
organized by organ system. Numerous tables, graphs, and figures add
further clarity to the text. The accompanying DVD includes extensive
video and image collections of pathology, histology, procedures,
additional lectures, and radiology…
…Written by experts in the field, this book is updated with the latest
advances in pathophysiology and treatment. It is organized in a way that
makes reading from beginning to end a logical journey, yet each chapter
can stand alone as a quick reference on a particular topic. “
