To achieve the goal of conveying not only knowledge but wisdom, each volume is divided into three sections:· Tools for Diagnosis· Diseases and Disorders· Common ProblemsAlso included to facilitate a physician’s use of this book are:· Nosologic Diagnosis tables· “Pearls and Perils” boxes· “Consider Consultation When…”· Selected annotated bibliographies· A complete bibliography· Key Clinical Questions and What They UnlockThe Nosologic Diagnosis tables are based on a discriminator model to promote clearer understanding and are superior to a criterion-based model and others that lack similar specificity. This strong emphasis on differential diagnosis and on providing a structure for the understanding of the disease process means that they are true “how to do it” books.
