Description
A comprehensive textbook of the theory and practice of podiatry, this book provides an up-to-date overview of the common conditions encountered in day-to-day podiatric practice and describes their diagnosis, management, and related therapeutics. Most of the chapters have been revised and rewritten, many by new contributors, others by podiatrists in the wider field of research working in collaboration with medical colleagues, and valuable new chapters have been added. It provides students with everything they need to know about foot disorders and their management in order to pass their examinations. This book is also a current and easily accessible reference for the busy practitioner.
