As the proportion of the population over the age of 65 continues to grow, so does the popularity of this little book. The British Medical Journal ranked the last edition as the number one book for undergraduates and junior trainees in geriatrics.

This new edition, much revised and updated, has succinct chapters giving good pratical advice on treatment and management, with highlighted lists of important points. The authors regularly teach undergraduates and postgraduates and are experienced in examinations at both the MB and Diploma in Geriatric Medicine level. Despite the rapid growth of research into the diseases of old age, the authors have ensured that their book remains a concise yet remarkably comprehansive guide for candidates in both these examinations. In addition, nursing and allied health professionals who work with the elderly will find this book a fount of useful information.
