About the Book :Kumar & Clark's Clinical Medicine 8 builds on the prize-winning formula that won the first prize in the BMA Book Awards Medicine Category in 2010 (7th edition) and 2006 (6th edition). 'This book is comprehensive, student friendly (if still intimidating in size!) and covers such a vast breadth of knowledge. It still remains the primary 'must-have' text book of any budding doctor, or qualified one at that. This book is stunning in its breadth and in its ease of use. It still remains as the 'gold-standard' thorough guide to clinical medicine its forefathers were.' BMA Judges 2010 'This is one of a select few books that deserves to be in most doctors' personal possession and it's as simple as that. ...' Dr Harry Brown.Contents :1 Ethics D Bowman Communication A Cushing 2 Molecular cell biology and genetic disorders D Kelsell, C Byrne and K Linton 3 The immune system and disease M Peakman 4 Infectious diseases, tropical medicine and sexually-transmitted infection RG Finch, WL Irving, P Moss and J Anderson 5 Nutrition M Elia 6 Gastrointestinal disease J Lindsay, L Langmead and S Preston 7 Liver, biliary tract and pancreatic disease AK Burroughs, D Westaby and G Dusheiko 8 Haematological disease MF Murphy, J Wainscoat and KJ Pasi 9 Malignant disease CJ Gallagher, TA Lister and M Smith 10 Palliative medicine and symptom control MJ Johnson, G Eva and S Booth 11 Rheumatology and bone disease M Shipley, A Rahman, D O'Gradaigh and R Conway 12 Renal disease MM Yaqoob 13 Water, electrolytes and acid-base balance MM Yaqoob 14 Cardiovascular disease AJ Camm and N Bunce 15 Respiratory disease AJ Frew and S Doffman 16 Critical care medicine CJ Hinds, D Watson and R Pearse 17 Drug therapy and poisoning M Rawlins and JA Vale 18 Environmental medicine ML Clark and CRA Clarke 19 Endocrine disease TA Howlett and MJ Levy 20 Diabetes mellitus and other disorders of metabolism EAM Gale and JV Anderson 21 The special senses M Harries, F Vaz, S Verma and R Hamilton 22 Neurological disease P Jarman 23 Psychological medicine PD White and J Bourke 24 Skin disease DG PaigeAbout the Author :Kumar
