Book excerpt: GERIATRIC MEDICINE is exactly what the subtitle says - a pocket guide for doctors, nurses, other health professionals and students. In its first edition it was highly valued by nurses and trainee doctors and when it went out of print there were constant queries about its reprint date from those who knew what an excellent, quick-and-easy reference it was. In response to those queries and because of our ageing community and the implications that has for the health professions, GERIATRIC MEDICINE is back. The second edition contains new, up-to-date material on models of service delivery, cancer and palliative care, and residential care.
