Rheumatology: A clinical handbook is an essential resource for
medical students who need an introduction, understanding and

students with information they do not require, or cover
rheumatology alongside orthopaedics and as a result compromise
fundamentals of rheumatology. This book is different: It provides
all the information students need during their rheumatology
placement Further information resources are signposted for those
who want to take their studies further A definition and brief
pathophysiology for each condition is provided, which is linked to
the respective clinical features. The book covers the core elements
of diagnosis and treatment based on the latest national guidelines
to swiftly bring students and junior doctors in training
up-to-date. Self-assessment questions and an OSCE chapter provide a
way of checking that users have understood and grasped the core
material, as well as enabling students to be well equipped for
their written and OSCE examinations. Written by two medical
students and an experienced consultant rheumatologist, the book
combines a reader-friendly writing style with coverage of the
material through clinical experience of a professional in the
field. Printed in full colour throughout, with an attractive
design, a clear and concise writing style as well as a range of
pedagogical features including an array of mnemonics, pictures and
diagrams, Rheumatology: A clinical handbook is exactly the sort of
