It is an up-to-date and easy-to-use compendium of medical information suitable for student research as well as general readers, including patients and caregivers. Now in its sixth edition, Magill's Medical Guide expands to six volumes and contains 1,178 entries. 161 essay topics are completely new to this edition, and all entries from the previous edition have been evaluated and updated by a panel of Medical Editors to ensure their currency and accuracy, as needed. All cross-references to other relevant entries in Magill's Medical Guide have been revised. Every bibliography has been updated with the latest editions and sources, including Web sites for relevant organizations. All appendixes from the previous edition have been updated and checked for accuracy, and the "Medical Journals" list has been expanded to include standard title abbreviations, now serving as a key for users. - Publisher.
