Inhaltsangabe

The internet boils down to just two things- communication and information- both of which lie at the core of medical practice. The internet's contribution to medicine is no longer mere potential. Rather, it offers the tangible inducements of efficacy, resource sharing, accessibility, knowledge procurement, and economy. This third edition of this original and best-selling book about the internet for doctors and medical students has been completely revised and updated. The editor has assembled a team of expert contributors to produce an unmatched, compact volume of accurate information and respected opinion. The internet is here to stay and doctors are getting online in ever-increasing numbers. For those who already have access, this book will stimulate their exploration of online resources and topical issues. Adapting to the changing requirements of its readers, Medicine and the Internet is tailored to the needs of both beginner and enthusiast, while acknowledging that providing clear, readily accessible knowledge is paramount.
