* Publisher: Cambridge University Press; 1 edition (August 28, 2000)
* Language: English
* ISBN-10: 0521789796

Book Description
"This is the first edition, and clearly is as up-to-date as a printed book can be. There is an excellent review of recent epidemiological and diagnostic trends...I find the book easy to read, despite the various contributors (kudos to the editors)...all the important new information is nicely integrated into short reviews of the entire subject matter at hand." Doody's Review Service
"This book contains much good and up-to-date advice. It describes how access to newer laboratory techniques, such as those for toxoplasmosis or neonatal infection, offer new diagnostic opportunities but need careful interpretation.... This book should be read by all those preparing for the MRCOG examination, and should be accessible at antenatal clinics to answer those uncommon but important queries relevant to congenital or perinatal infection." The Obstetrician and Gynaecologist
"Congenital and Perinatal Infections manages to combine the roles of comprehensive textbook and rapid reference-source. Rapid progress is being made and the second edition is likely to follow soon-but in paperback form this is a very affordable book and i would say, read it now." Journal of the Royal Society of Medicine.

The Lupus Book: A Guide for Patients and Their Families

The Lupus Book: A Guide for Patients and Their Families
by Daniel J Wallace (Author)

Product Details
* Hardcover: 304 pages
* Publisher: Oxford University Press, USA; 4 edition (December 2, 2008)
* Language: English
* ISBN-10: 019537309X

Book Description
Nearly one million people in the United States suffer from lupus erythematosus, which develops when the body becomes allergic to itself. Because of the difficulty of diagnosing lupus, several years may elapse before an accurate diagnosis is made, resulting in mental anguish and damage to vital organs. By increasing public awareness of this disease, Wallace, a world authority on lupus, hopes to effect earlier diagnosis. In a lay companion to the renowned Dubois' Lupus Erythematosus (Williams & Wilkins, 1992. 4th ed.), which he coauthored, Wallace thoroughly explains the body's immunological processes and the causes, diagnosis, management, manifestations, prognosis, and genetic risks of lupus. Containing detailed illustrations and charts similar to those found in medical texts, The Lupus Book is written for allied health professionals as well as patients at the college reading level. Several other current books offer simpler explanations and more easily understood charts while placing a greater emphasis on coping skills; Mark Horowitz's Coping with Lupus (Penguin, 1994) and Sheldon Blau's Living with Lupus (LJ 11/1/93) are among the best. Wallace's book is recommended for those who require a detailed explanation of the disease.?Mary Prottsman, Medical Lib., Enterprise, Ala.
