Iatrogenic diseases (Oxford medical publications)

Since the appearance of the second edition, the literature on adverse reactions has increased enormously. In this important update, D'Arcy and Green assemble forty-one chapters which provide a review unparalleled in its completeness and its depth, surveying all aspects of iatrongenic disease. From reviews of the second edition:"An excellent compendium of the disease that may result from therapy....The strength of the book lies in the discussion of the mechanisms of drug-induced problems, in the frequent use of case studies, and in the treatment of controversial areas."--American Journal of Hospital Pharmacy."All physicians ought to be familiar with this book. Thoughtful physicians will find themselves referring to it frequently."--Journal of the American Medical Association."Written in a crisp, authoritatitve, and comprehensive mannyer....An invaluable addition to the bookshelf of the practitioner. It fills a void not covered by any other reference book of current vintage."--Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences
