| Annotation | In this edition, the editors have organised the material into basic subjects: geriatric care, geriatric syndromes, and common diseases. Chapters on emergency department care, home care and nursing home care have been added since Schrier's first edition of 1990; and the problems of confusional states, falls, and fractures are examined. Other new chapters include perioperative care, geriatric rehabilitation and ethical concerns. Ethnic issues, gynaecology, and thermoregulation are covered by the foremost leaders in the field. |
