This book provides excellent needed Data to famiy physician and is not " basic"!Every page I learned 1-2 very important points. Even recent images and studies that I had not got the concept in residency and or imaging techniques that have just come to provide care was presented. Very easy to read and has excellent diagrams and explains things in my language . Even has easy tests in the end of each chapter.Thank you very much. I am reading the book for second time.
Actually, my 30 year old son is switching careers from computer Information Security (IS) to, hopefully, a Physicians Assistant (PA). Someplace I have to get the him the ability to use the online student guides that go along with the book! But to quote him, pun and all, "it has been a real eye opener).Robert Ellenwood Son is James Robert Ellenwood. Prefers "JR Ellenwood"
