A heavily illustrated primer on physical examination; the color photographs show techniques clearly. The opening sections summarize the methods and aims of history taking; the closing sections summarize diagnostic investigations and briefly summarize their methods and interpretations. This text speaks mainly to medical students, but subspecialists who have forgotten methods outside of their fields might find it useful for reminders.
