One of the most brilliant sections is the beginning Basic Principles of Diagnostic Test and Interpretation, which gives readers an excellent working knowledge of the limitations and cost-effectiveness determinations. There is also a very useful approach to interpreting electrocardiograms as well as interpreting microbiologic results and other tests performed on body fluids...This is a valuable book, packed with useful, immediately understandable information. I highly recommend it to all as a reference. 5 Stars --Doody's Review Service Doody's 20081118
