Martin Crook. 157 pages. Stoneham Massachusetts: Butterworth-Heinemann; 1993. $24.95.
Sixty case presentations that include history, physical examination, and results of laboratory tests. Each presentation is followed by questions such as these: Is renal insufficiency a likely explanation for the hyperkalemia?; what investigations could help confirm the cause of the hyperkalemia?; and what diagnoses account for the hyperkalemia? The answers are provided and each question is thoroughly discussed. Readers who consider occupational history important will need to know such things as what publicans and lorry drivers do.
