• Summary:"Since Patient Education was first published in 1992, doctors, health practitioners and patients far and wide have benefited and learned from John Murtagh's straightforward, practical approach to medicine and his ability to depart his extensive knowledge in simple, understandable terms, Patient Education is unique in presenting helpful information to the patient on their medical condition and how to manage it in clear, non-technical terms. Designed as one-page handouts with the patient in mind, this book is an essential aid to general practitioners and health, community and medical workers to educate patients and, indeed themselves, on common medical conditions. The book covers a broad cross section of ailments, ranging from snoring and bow legs, to issues such as HIV and AIDs."--Jacket
