This tutorial for physicians, medical students, nurse
practitioners, and physician assistants is designed to provide a solid
grounding in the principles of clinical infectious diseases within the
time frame of a 30-day infectious disease rotation. It features a wide
array of tables that summarize the methods of clinical assessment,
anti-infective agent doses, and drug toxicities. The text is organized
by system/region as opposed to pathogens, simulating how common
pathogens and disorders would be encountered in rounds or in practice.
Pedagogical features include key points boxes and guiding questions in a
reader-friendly, two-color layout. Case examples, appropriate for PBL
and integrated curricula, highlight clinical applications. A section of
color photos is included. This second edition offers a more concise and
streamlined format. The title of the first edition is Infectious
Diseases in 30 Days.
