Críticas

“The book contains comprehensive sections on the examination of the main systems and separate sections on some specialities, such as the skin, psychiatry, and children. The sections are well laid out, with superb colour photographs that show every step of a particular procedure. The summary boxes, which provide key points, differential diagnosis, risk factors, and alerts to red flag symptoms and signs, are excellent.
