9Preface  
“There is no such thing as incurable, there are only things for which man has not found a cure”.
—Bernard Mannes Baruch
“We have to ask ourselves whether medicine remains humanitarian and respected profession or a depersonalised science of prolonging life rather than diminishing human suffering”.
—Elizabeth Kubler-Ross
This book is a bedside approach to medical therapeutics. The purpose is to provide quick and ready reference to up-to-date management of patients at bedside. The author has taken much pain in providing in nutshell intricacies of treatment at the same time simplifying to the utmost.
 
Notable Features

—Thomas Fuller (1608–1681)
