Handbook of Genitourinary Medicine

This comprehensive but practical guide to genitourinary and HIV medicine is an up-to-date treatise of the presentation, diagnosis and management of sexually transmitted diseases.

Written by a team of experts from a variety of disciplines, 'Handbook of Genitourinary Medicine' will be essential reading for trainee and practising GU physicians and will also appeal to other health care professionals involved in the day-to-day care of patients with sexually transmitted diseases.
