This title is directed primarily towards health care professionals outside of the United States. It is a concise, easy-to-refer-to handbook of common conditions seen in general practice and how to treat them. Each condition is discussed in a standard way that will be familiar to most GPs - assessment, including history and examination, and management. Throughout the book there are 'alert' boxes (marked with an exclamation point!) as well as helpful hints and 'useful tips', set off in boxes. This edition is completely up to date with the very latest information and includes national guidelines on treating major diseases seen in primary care. There are also new Quality and Outcomes Framework features.

Review

"...this book should be carried around in a medical bag or lie on the desk; it would be a shame to have such a practical book on the bookshelf, as it would not fulfil it's full potential." Dr Harry Brown, Medix-UK, June 2003 --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
