| Summary |
"Adolescent Rheumatology is the first single-source text that focuses on how adolescent-specific aspects impact on rheumatic conditions, and cross references disease-specific information from general rheumatology textbooks. Using a generic, developmental approach to make this book unique, the evidence base is referenced with a clinical and practical approach that is adopted to each topic."--Jacket |
