Reviews

"Fundamentals of Clinical Practice fills a most important niche in medical education. At a time when the quality of physician skills are in question, this text provides a solid foundation in all aspects of excellent clinical practice. If every medical student used this textbook, the quality of the physician-patient relationship would improve greatly. Every medical school should use this resource for early clinical education."
(Joseph E. Scherger, MD, MPH, Dean, College of Medicine, Florida State University)
"Fundamentals of Clinical Practice (second edition) aims to provide an introduction to patient care, and clinical thinking, for the novice clinician. Each chapter is structured around a consistent format that lays out educational objectives, basic principles, and specific examples of the application of those principles through patient stories. The format makes it easy for the browser to flip through chapters of interest; the stories draw the browser in for a closer look. The book is a nice balance of the theoretical and the applied. It achieves its goal for beginning clinicians, and offers a satisfying refresher for more experienced clinicians."
(Richard G. Roberts, MD, JD, Professor of Family Medicine, University of Wisconsin Medical School)
