It offers a complete and practical review of the causes, incidence, clinical features, diagnosis, and management of both common and uncommon problems associated with the aging process and acquired illness. Each chapter offers tips on the
physical examination of that body system and provides quick-reference tables for guidance on diagnosis and treatment.
