It is well organised both chronologically and topically, and has admirably achieved its goal to imbue readers with problem-solving skills, evaluation techniques and clinical decision-making. Finally, in addressing topical and relevant clinical scenarios, this book is, on the whole, a very interesting read, and likely to become a favourite with its intended audience.
