Reviews

From the reviews: Presents the information using a case-based format, followed by discussions of medical and medicolegal highlights. ... it would be better suited for educators who are teaching medical students and physicians in training as an introduction to this topic. ... The themes of appropriate medical therapy and effective patient communication are reinforced throughout the book. (John S. Czachor, Doody's Review Service, May, 2011)
