A Clinician’s Pearls & Myths in Rheumatology

Rheumatology No Responses »

Dec 232012

Important strides have been made in understanding the pathophysiologic basis of many inflammatory conditions in recent years, but rheumatology remains a discipline in which diagnosis is rooted in the medical history skillfully extracted from the patient, the careful physical examination, and the discriminating use of laboratory tests and imaging. Moreover, selection of the most appropriate therapy for patients with rheumatic diseases also remains heavily reliant upon clinical experience. Medical disciplines such as rheumatology that depend significantly upon clinical wisdom are prone to the development of systems of ‘Pearls’ and ‘Myths,’ related to the diseases they call their own, a ‘Pearl’ being a nugget of truth about the diagnosis or treatment of a particular disease that has been gained by dint of clinical experience and a ‘Myth’ being a commonly held belief that influences the practice of many clinicians – but is false. This book will pool together the clinical wisdom of seasoned, expert rheumatologists who participate in the care of patients with autoimmune diseases, systemic inflammatory disorders, and all other rheumatic conditions.

Surgery No Responses »

Dec 222012

First Prize (Surgery category), BMA Awards 2005. A comprehensive and attractively presented 4-colour textbook of surgery aimed primarily at medical students but also of use to junior doctors and surgical technicians. The book has two key features: firstly, it provides students with coverage of every aspect of surgery; secondly, it has been designed and written to be the ‘surgical companion’ to Kumar & Clark’s Clinical Medicine. This new edition will also offer an online version to all purchasers of the book – the first surgical textbook in the UK to make an electronic version available.

The smart way to study!

Elsevier titles with STUDENT CONSULT will help you master difficult concepts and study more efficiently in print and online! Perform rapid searches. Integrate bonus content from other disciplines. Download text to your handheld device. And a lot more. Each STUDENT CONSULT title comes with full text online, a unique image library, case studies, USMLE style questions, and online note-taking to enhance your learning experience.

A comprehensive account of surgery – students only need to buy one text

Covers general issues – wound healing, pain control, etc – in the first section – by grouping these issues into one section at the beginning, students are immediately given an overview of what makes surgery ‘different’

A regional approach is adopted for the largest section – section 2 – this is the classic way in which surgeons talk about surgery to each other

The third section covers surgical specialities – paediatrics, endocrinology, urology – and also includes specialities such as ophthalmology, ENT and orthopaedics – these are the chapters that are often omitted from competing books , in the interests of saving space

The logical arrangement of the three sections makes the book easy to use and refer to in clinical practice

The arrangement of contents is straightforward and conventional – a ‘plus’ in comparison to other texts which can be somewhat idiosyncratic in their approach

Information and practical boxes are used throughout to enhance the text and highlight and isolate important information

Includes approximately 240 four-colour line drawings – these drawings are original to the have been greatly praised by students

Also includes over 100 black and white and approximately 50 full-colour clinical photographs, x-rays and scans

Designed to complement Kumar and Clark’s highly successful Clinical Medicine textbook – students like having two ‘matching’ texts in these complementary areas

Written by an expert team of contributors from all the major London teaching hospitals and many other major centres in the UK – the contributor team lends authority to the text
