Description

Established for over 40 years as the “Bible” of the medical ward, The Washington Manual® of Medical Therapeutics is now in its Thirty-First Edition and builds upon that proud tradition—with even more of the current information you need, with a focus on inpatient care, delivered in a timesaving, quick-reference style. This edition includes the latest facts on nosocomial infections, West Nile virus, and agents of bioterrorism; the latest management of AIDS/HIV; and current JNC VII guidelines for management of hypertension. Drug appendices have a new quick-scanning format for rapid information retrieval.

This edition is also available electronically for handheld computers. See Media listing for details.
