In an excellent problem-oriented approach, \u003cb\u003eGeriatric Medicine\u003c\/b\u003e offers a complete overview for practitioners. The main portion of the text deals with the common diseases of old age; important aspects such as physiology, demography, and health care delivery are discussed in separate chapters.
