Knowing how to examine a patient, how to take a full history, and how to interpret the findings is at the core of a doctor's everyday practice. The new edition of this classic textbook on clinical examination, first published in 1897, continues the tradition of combining this core knowledge of patient examination with the newer understanding brought about by modern techniques of investigation. The book gives comprehensive coverage to the essential skills needed for history taking and clinical examination. It reviews the relevant investigations that aid the doctor in forming a diagnosis, emphasizing at all stages the importance of the doctor-patient relationship.

Review:

"This book covers all the examinations needed for a clinical medical student. The text is clear and the illustrations are good."
Medical Student - UK
"The quality of illustration is excellent – from the line drawings to the radiographs and colour plates...In summary, this is a book that must be indispensable to medical students who are starting their clinical work but wouldn’t be out of place as a refresher for GPs in the surgery."
Dr Jeremy Sager, Univadis, Oct 2008
