The Oxford Handbook of Tropical Medicine provides clear and concise coverage for practitioners and students in the tropics. Medical conditions are ordered by system except for the five major tropical conditions - malaria, HIV/STDs, tuberculosis, diarrheal diseases and acute respiratory infections and fevers. The e-book has been designed to be as practical as possible with illustrations of blood films and stool smears, which are useful for diagnosis, as well as clinical features, diagnosis and management. It also includes new sections on cardiology, chest medicine, renal, endocrinology, mental health and ophthalmology.
