Editorial Reviews
Review
“In this pocket guide that can actually fit in a pocket, Ferri (medicine Brown U. Medical School) provides a concise guide to differential diagnosis for over 900 signs, symptoms and clinical disorders. The differential diagnoses are listed both by presenting sign or symptom and by clinical disorder, with diagnostic possibilities in declining order of incidence. Although not an encyclopedic reference, and not intended to be, this guide will carry most practitioners through the day and can even serve as a quick study guide. Ferri includes references and also a handy index.” — SciTech Book News, Vol. 30, No. 2, June 2006
