"This is a unique annual volume that is more akin to a collection of review articles on carefully selected topics than to a comprehensive textbook. There is no comparable title. It has occupied a unique niche for more than 50 years and the current volume amply lives up to the high standard of its predecessors." ©Doody's Review Service, 2022, Carol Scott-Conner, MD, PhD, MBA (University of Iowa Hospitals and Clinics) Doody's Score: 4 Stars!
