FULL DESCRIPTION:
Concise descriptions of diseases and conditions relevant to docs in "doc talk" language, with up-to-date as well as classic references. This latest update is based on the 6th edition and 2011 print edition with additional features, enhanced functionality and ongoing updates.
Little Black Book of Primary Care is intended as a very portable manual with heavily referenced, concise, practical, clinically relevant information. It contains usual clinical approaches, personal "pearls", as well as and most importantly, literature-debated issues.
Clinical information in the resource is organized generally by medical specialty and can be accessed either by perusal down through the hierarchies of the table of contents, or by finding the disease or clinical word of interest in the Main Index. Main Index entries will generally take the reader to the relevant disease page or, if a medication, to a related medications list.
