By Jeffrey A. Eaton, Jeffrey A. Eaton MS ARNP, Joyce D. Cappiello MS ARNP, et al.

Provides "real world" scenarios from which to teach and learn. Includes approximately 45 case studies on the most commonly encountered situations in primary care.

Then the reader is presented with some points to consider requiring critical thinking and analysis of the data.
