Review

"Integrates basic with clinical science, using a problem-based approach. This compliments the new curricula of many medical schools. This text is suitable not only for medical students and practicing doctors but is also an ideal reference for allied health workers as it provides up-to-date details on patient management and prognosis. The text contains a wide variety of diagrams that are clear and allow for easy interpretation of the text. They include detailed illustrations indicating physiological and pathological processes, surface anatomy photographs, which explain clinical signs; ultrasounds, x-ray films and histology slides. All which compliment the text and allow for a greater understanding of the disease and its management.
