"This book provides all the latest knowledge in the field and is supported by the scientific rigor and reliability that have defined Harrison's....This book is an essential compact clinical companion for students and clinicians alike....This book is complete, easy to navigate, and remarkably up to date. As the parent text does, this book devotes significant attention to the importance of obtaining a history and conducting a physical examination, the basic foundation of all medicine. It blends the other myriad aspects of infectious diseases and offers eminently readable and current management recommendations. Indeed, it should be regarded as an authoritative source of current information on infectious diseases."--Doody's Review Service
