5.0 out of 5 stars Outstanding and must have book!

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on 30 October 2009

As a Medical Oncologist for the last twenty years, this is the best

book on Palliative care I have found and I am loving it!

The chapters are written in a clear, elegant and informative way by great

experts in the field of palliative care (e.g. Eduardo Bruera).

I had no difficult whatsoever in finding exactly what I need as key information

to the benefit of my patients.

I just have to say that before having personally looked at the book itself in a medical bookstore

I had seen the comments of the above reviewer in the Amazon website. This previous review scared me

to buy the book online as it was in my view too negative and, would dare to say,

does not match at all with the wonderfull book I have now in my hands.

This previous review just made me waste 3-4 months of good reading.

This is the time span until I saw the book

in a Medical Library and could go through its pages personally .

After that I just Jumped and bought it!

So, for the Medical professional who works with palliative treatment and wants the better

for his or her patients, THIS IS A MUST HAVE!

Maybe Amazon and the Editor could allow internauts to go through its pages as a sample.

This would certainly help them to see how precious this book is.

4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Resource for Professionals in Training

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on 24 January 2012

As a physician in training, I found Dr. Walsh's textbook to be an excellent resource for dealing with day-to-day clinical duties, as well as for preparing presentations. The text is a good mix of theory and clinical evidence, sprinkled with sound opinion. Chapters cover all the facets of palliative medicine and written by a veritable roster of who's who in the specialty. I did find that the chapters may need to be better organized in order to provide quicker access to information. All in all, I would recommend this reference to health professionals who are both learning and practicing palliative care.

Comprehensive reference for Palliative Care Medicine. Large, heavy book that addresses the full scope of Palliative Care. I am new to Palliative Care and find this a great resource! Highly Recommend. Fast shipping too. With the disc, you can access online and not have the book with you to access. Our hospital has it available online for employees.
