Figures and illustrations have been carefully revised and updated in response to reader feedback, and key references fine-tuned to include only the most up-to-date and pertinent.

Loved and trusted by millions for almost four decades, the unparalleled Oxford Handbook of Clinical Medicine continues to be your reliable and truly indispensable companion for the practice and philosophy of modern medicine.
