John Murtagh's General Practice Companion Handbook

This edition of General Practice Companion Handbook reflects conditions covered in the fourth edition of General Practice. Updated throughout, it is even more topical and relevant for today's general practitioner. Clear and down-to-earth, this book is a practical guide to general practice and presents common medical conditions in an accessible alphabetical format. The systematic approach, combined with Professor Murtagh's clear writing style, means this companion manual is a unique reference that can be used by general practitioners, students, nurses and all workers in non-specialist health disciplines. In this edition, Professor Murtagh adopts a more evidence-based approach while maintaining the problem-based structure that is core to the manual's appeal.
