Here is the second edition of a clear and succinct volume that offers practical solutions to problems likely to be encountered by medical students, interns, nurses, and many other health professionals. Two new sections, one on clinical signs and symptoms, and one on geriatric medicine have been added, while existing material has been extensively rewritten. When used in conjunction with its companion title Oxford Handbook of Clinical Specialities, the full range of clinical medicine is covered.

This handbook and the Oxford Handbook of Clinical Medicine between them cover the span of clinical medicine. This new edition has been redesigned and all sections have been completely updated and revised in collaboration with senior clinical readers and a panel of medical students. There are new evidence-based guidelines; blank pages to add local information, notes, updates available via the Internet; and more boxed information to make learning easier.
