Historytaking and examination remain the essential tools of clinical examination. However, the environment in which medicine is practised continues to change, with advances in technology and an increasing evidence base to guide decisionmaking. The eighth edition follows the format of previous editions of this book with two sections: Clinical Examination and Clinical Medicine. Each section has been updated to reflect the more objective methods of assessment that are now used and the increased evidence upon which clinical practice is based.
