About this title

From the Publisher

"In this book the authors, all physicians with considerable knowledge and experience, clearly describe a problem-based approach to the management of common diseases. This has been expertly and successfully achieved. There are illustrative long and short cases preceded by an overview of the relevant subspecialty; the questions being posed and the pitfalls that are mentioned are very useful. The inclusion of images and clinical laboratory results is an additional asset." -- Professor Sir David Todd

"The result of a unique collaboration by members of the University of Hong Kong and Tsinghua University, together with other associates, this volume consists of case-oriented and problem-based teaching materials specially designed for medical students and junior doctors. These cases can help trainees to approach and solve problems through their own efforts and arrive at appropriate diagnoses and management strategies." -- Professor Qi Fang
