A teaching survey of common clinical entities. Each section opens with a typical case summary, which is followed by multiple choice questions relevant to diagnosis and treatment. Each group of questions is followed by a discussion of the rationale for and the implications of the correct answers. A short closing section gives a few key references for further reading in textbooks and journals. There is no subject index: This is a text to be worked through for a self-tuneup (for example, before a certifying examination), not a reference book.
