“This is primarily a book for practicing hospital‐based physicians, but it is also a superb arena for discussions in residency training programs. The authors and contributors are all highly regarded clinicians and experts in their fields. … As a resource to stimulate discussion and focus on current topics, this is an outstanding book for hospital‐based clinicians and those in training programs.” (Vincent F. Carr, Doody's Book Reviews, April,2018)
