`The first edition of this textbook was published in 2006 which quickly became one of my favorite books because the information was brief, concise, and practically useful in a busy clinical practice when time was scarce. This edition has been substantially improved and is even more comprehensive. I would highly recommend this handy reference work, useful for both experienced and less experienced colleagues.'
