About this ebook
Ong Yong Yau and his team of editors have successfully assembled a panel of leading clinicians and researchers to provide an integrative review of the key areas of medicine — cardiology, endocrinology, gastroenterology, haematology, neurology, oncology, rheumatology, renal and respiratory medicine.This book is unique in that it reflects the knowledge and experience of leading experts on patterns of disease in the Asia-Pacific region. Currently there are several other similar books but these are by authors from the west and therefore reflect the western perspectives. In addition, the book also includes discussions on genetic diseases, infectious diseases and the pattern of antimicrobial resistance to antibiotics, highlighting local incidence and statistics.Each chapter starts with the basic concepts of a particular topic and gradually develops the theme to present the state-of-the-art on the topic. With its focus on practices and expertise unique to the Asia Pacific, this book is a must read for the student, practicing clinician and research scientist interested in the latest developments in the important fields.
