Schlossberg's Clinical Infectious Disease Summary

Schlossberg's Clinical Infectious Disease by Cheston B. Cunha (Assistant Professor of Medicine, Assistant Professor of Medicine, Brown University Alpert School of Medicine)

Clinical Infectious Disease is the only comprehensive single-volume reference on clinical infectious disease for the busy medical practitioner. Now in its third edition, Clinical Infectious Disease provides rapid access to a practical overview of clinical infectious disease topics such as the susceptible host and nosocomial infection. Organized in topically relevant sections for ease of use and supported by full-color illustrations, this volume focuses on differential diagnosis, focused testing, and practical empiric and specific therapeutics in clinical infectious disease. It also features current research on medical microbiology, antimicrobial stewardship, and evolving treatments for COVID-19. Authoritative and accessible, Clinical Infectious Disease remains the go to desktop reference for daily clinical infectious disease problems.

Schlossberg's Clinical Infectious Disease Reviews

Without doubt, this is a scholarly and detailed but clinically focussed textbook which is highly relevant to clinical practice. There is a substantial array of contributors, mainly from the United States though there are representatives from some other countries. I found this book readable, informative and interesting and can be used as a reference book but also it was interesting enough to simply open it and read at random. I am sure an infectious disease team would enjoy having access to this book. * Dr Harry Brown, Glycosmedia *
