Nicely organized and very useful. Broken down both by organ system and diagnosis with extra information in the back on specific antibiotics....but, beware old editions of this handbook. Antibiotic therapy changes rapidly, along with microbial resistence patterns. Make sure you are getting the newest version of this handbook available.
