  Knowledge of the main diseases affecting aged people continues to expand rapidly, with major advances in the fields of Alzheimer's disease, osteoporosis and stroke in particular. At the same time the proportion of the population over 65 continues to grow. This fourth edition of Lecure Notes on Geriatrics reviews the field. Emphasizing the day-to-day practice of physicians dealing with elderly patients, this book meets the need of MB and Diploma candidates in geriatrics. Coverage includes social aspects of ageing, medical and surgical treatment of the old, cerebrovascular disease, disability and rehabilitation, gastrointestinal disease, and death and dying.

  The new edition has seen extensive revisions, reflecting recent advances in the specialty. A much terser style is employed with a greater reliance on tables. Packed full of facts, this volume contains more information than the student needs for his/her finals and almost as much as the candidate requires for his/her Membership or the Diploma in Geriatric Medicine of the Royal College of Physicians of London.
