Review

[This book] ‘tells you what the safe, humane doctor actually does when confronted by an ill patient with only his or her clinical skills for guidance, nothing in the laboratory pipeline, and a very limited choice of available treatments’. British Medical Journal

It presents a concise account of the important tropical diseases and concentrates on practical aspects of problem–solving in tropical medicine. Intended as a practical companion to tropical studies the pragmatic style is supplemented by numerous case studies and self–assessment questions. This edition has been completely revised, and for the first time Dr Bell is joined by a distinguished group of co–authors. The sections on AIDS is the tropics and an entirely new section on the chronic cough, including tuberculosis, have received particular attention.
