The Year in Rheumatic Disorders, 2002

The Year in Rheumatic Disorders 2002 is the second issue of an essential reference volume for practicing clinicians. In it, a wide range of experts review the published literature of the past year and provide summaries of and commentary on more than 150 papers, reports, and trials that will have an impact on current clinical practice, or that predict future developments. This year the editors focussed on rheumatoid arthritis with contributions in three main areas: Disease Pathogenesis; Diagnostics and Prognostics; Therapy. This is a resource that all doctors treating patients with rheumatic disease should have on their desks.
