Reviews / Votes
"As a clinical rheumatologist, I found this resource valuable, withthe main clinical questions clearly expressed and easily accessedwith the colored bookmarks and, especially, the useful CDaccompanying the printed edition. The book can serve as a companionin daily practice, either in an outpatient or ward environment. ThePDA capabilities and the easy search engine for use in a laptopmake it portable and reliable, and an update capacity via theinternet is of extra value." -Ricardo Riera, MD, MSc, Evidence-BasedMedicine 2006More details
