内容説明・目次
内容説明
Bringing together the expertise of an international group of contributors the editors set out to address the most contentious issues posed by the problem of rheumatoid arthritis. The result is a series of state-of-the-art review papers on the subject which will interest all rheumatologists wishing to keep abreast of this fast moving field. "I believe that this book hopes to address some of the problems arising from the compartmentalisation of modern medicine." "Professor Bird is highly competent with an excellent reputation for balance and fair mindedness." "I suspect the target audience should be trainees in internal medicine who are considering rheumatology, or trainee rheumatologists in their early years. It could also be useful for those longer in the tooth who may feel they need a review of the area." "Since opinions are likely to present in abundance in such a book, and I have already suggested that it should be designed for a relatively short life, then topicality is the order of the day." Dr Michael L Snaith, Senior Lecturer in Rheumatology, University of Sheffield.
