Published in a new edition every couple of years since 1996, this volume is not to be considered a comprehensive textbook. Rather, it is designed as a convenient-to-use, readable guide to selected topics important for physicians preparing for certification or recertification. As such, bulleted items highlight key points, pharmacy tables highlight indications, toxic effects, and drug interactions, multiple-choice questions, and the answers with explanations, follow each chapter. Readers are assumed to have studied one of the standard textbooks of internal medicine. Annotation ©2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
