Description
Part of the "Colour Guide Series", this is a small colour atlas of the 60 conditions most commonly encountered in general practice. Each topic occupies one double page spread: the text on the left-hand page gives the cause and brief details of management; on the right-hand page are clinical photographs illustrating the condition. These will also be the conditions (normally inappropriately) seen in Accident and Emergency departments. It therefore has a potentially very wide market including the entire primary care team GPs (especially trainees and newly qualified), Practice Nurses, Health Visitors - medical students during their clinical years, junior doctors and nurses working in Accident and Emergency, etc.
