The purpose of the second edition of Family Medicine: A Clinical and Applied Orientation remains the same as the first edition-to focus on subtle debate on the art and science of family medicine. This book has been extensively revised; the core of essential information has been incorporated that every family physician needs to know and understand about the basic art and science of family practice. Each chapter discusses common encounters with patients in family practice, including important curricula that have been included in the academic specialty of family medicine, followed by a detailed discussion and its implications in the practice of family medicine.
