Reviews / Votes
"As a clinical rheumatologist, I found this resource valuable, with the main clinical questions clearly expressed and easily accessed with the colored bookmarks and, especially, the useful CD accompanying the printed edition. The book can serve as a companion in daily practice, either in an outpatient or ward environment. The PDA capabilities and the easy search engine for use in a laptop make it portable and reliable, and an update capacity via the internet is of extra value."-Ricardo Riera, MD, MSc, Evidence-Based Medicine 2006
