Image of Common Medical Problems in the Tropics

Comprehensive general textbook and practical handbook written in clear English. The second edition, which has been extensively up-dated, has added explanations of treatments carried out and names of drugs used by medical officers in hospitals, but not available at health centres so that health workers will understand the treatment and drugs the patients have been given, while the sections on HIV and tuberculosis have been completely rewritten. The book is intended for medical assistants and senior nurses, especially those running clinics and health centres on their own. It is also useful for community health nurses and medical assistants, medical and nursing students and newly qualified doctors working as general medical officers.
