Nick J. Beeching and John S. Cheesbrough. 128 pages. St. Louis, Missouri: Mosby-Year Book; 1994. $24.95.
From a pulmonary problem in a patient who has had a renal transplantation to a Cambodian with a neck swelling and a Samoan with a limp, this book comprises 32 case histories with appropriate illustrations—of the patients and their blood smears, culture plates, radiography, or rashes. Even physicians who will never see a febrile Indian sailor may appreciate the fun of solving the clinical riddles. The answers are presented on the overleaf to the presentations so the book is easy to use.
