The intention is to expedite the transfer of new information into a textbook form, and hence clinical practice. ... This text has 11 chapters, generally quite easy reading, with a logical layout. ... Each chapter is written by world experts on the particular topic, and is well referenced. ... Overall, I found this an extremely valuable read ... ."
