..."classic and elegant, deserves a place in the library of every medical student and physician."
--JAMA review of prior edition

The classic point-of-care guide to the undifferentiated patient has been completely revised and redesigned to maximize its clinical use and value. "DeGowin's Diagnostic Examination" has been essential for so many clinicians because it:
*Provides a proven framework for the clinician to begin the diagnostic exam starting with the patient's symptoms;
*Relates signs from physical examination to the underlying pathophysiology and to the presenting symptoms;
*Assists the clinician in reviewing the diagnostic possibilities from which to select a limited differential diagnosis that can be efficiently tested through additional physical or laboratory examinations.

Featuring an improved, user-friendly design, no other text integrates the principles of assessment and examination with differential diagnosis as completely or efficiently as "DeGowin's." Reach for it when time is tight and accuracy is a must.

NEW
*Improved user-friendly, easy-access format
*Improved organization from symptoms to signs to syndromes
*Concise, clinically relevant of underlying pathophysiology
*Principles of judicious, efficient use of lab tests and radiography

..."Concise & useful ... one of my best purchases. The book lives in the car for ready reference & gets so much use, the cover edges are wearing down."
