English abstract
This is the first comprehensive atlas of family medicine. The compilation of this atlas has required a concerted effort by five editors over many years. Sixty contributors with outstanding qualifications, experience, and knowledge were engaged. The atlas presents more than 1,500 superb clinical images, with its primary purpose being to provide useful clinical information for practising physicians, medical students, interns, residents, and other health care professionals. Despite the novelty of a family medicine atlas, this book was enjoyable to read. As each chapter is only a few pages long, it is suitable for reading when only short snippets of time are available. If you are new to the idea of a family medicine atlas, or if you would enjoy reading more on the subject from a variety of authors, this would be the book for you. Can so many subjects be covered adequately in a single book? You, the reader, must be the ultimate judge.
