Summary

The same world-renowned experts responsible for the parent text present a brief, yet authoritative summary of each chapter providing the user with on-the-spot, clinically pertinent information. A convenient pocket size and bulleted text make this even more user-friendly than before and over 110 tables provide quick understanding of topics.
