Algorithms provide a logical, concise and cost-effective approach to medical reasoning: utilizing a concise, step-by-step approach based upon clues from the history, physical examination and laboratory studies, algorithms help avoid excessive unnecessary procedures and testing. The 2nd edition of Manual of Clinical Endocrinology deals with practical issues ranging from simple thyroid function testing and thyrotoxicosis to approaching a patient with suspected thyrotoxicosis. Algorithms are simple and effective tools for the practitioner in a hurry and since the majority of the intended audience, physicians, general practitioners and postgraduates have very little time amidst their busy clinical routine, this manual uses algorithms. Twenty-two clinical issues are covered by an algorithmic approach, breaking down long lists and tables of differential diagnosis into smaller, more manageable ones. Common clinical symptoms, signs and laboratory abnormalities are classified as they present themselves at the patient’s bedside. This manual is an attempt to provide the busy practitioner with a desktop reckoner which will be useful while approaching a patient with a suspected endocrine problem. The authors have strived to be practical not pedantic – at the same time have made great effort to ensure that the recommendations are evidence based.

Dermatological Diseases A Practical Approach 3/Ed. – Revised & Updated
Dermatology has grown much since the release of the second edition, with several advances in different fields suchh as lasers, biologics, drug therapy, dermoscopy. But the most notable change has been the change in profile, with emphasis on procedural dermatology and visibility on social media. The new 3 rd Edition reflects these changes and is therefore a thoroughly revised edition. Several new images have been added to make it more illustrative. However, the emphasis on clarity in a reader- friendly manner. Therefore the emphasis on text boxes, schematic diagrams, and flow charts continues. A new addition is the list of suggested reading, MCQs and case reports for each chapter. The Following quote form previous edition is still relevant: Writing of a book is like sawing a saw- it sharpens the mind and freshens the knowledge and is thus a process that gives immense satisfaction and joy. This satisfaction and joy will be greater if the readers too find it a valuable tool to enhance their knowledge.
