Extremely well-written and informative!

Not only does this well-organized book provide a solid introduction to Rheumatology, but it is also a great resource for all levels of training. I recently used this book as a part of my Rheumatology board preparation--the mnemomics, tables and charts were all incredibly helpful tools and useful for memorizing detailed information. In addition to being a well-researched and informative source, this book is also fun and entertaining to read. I highly recommend for anyone interested in the field of Rheumatology, or just curious about learning something new!

Excellent and Concise Information

I’m a nurse practitioner in rheumatology. This book is an excellent reference and great at explaining on a medical and non-medical level.
It covers various IL inhibitors and anti-TNF medications.
