As a practicing physician, I have found this book quite useful in dealing with both patients and their families. The book has wide application to many medical specialties, paricularly internal medicine, critical care and geriatrics. Excellent and well chosen cases illustrate the authors' points well. Most practicing physicians will be able to relate to many of the cases presented in the book. An excellent, instructive review of an area of medicine that many physicians are expected to know, but never recieve any training in.
