Publisher's Synopsis
This manual has been written for the busy clinician who has accepted a position from a College of Medicine to teach the basics of Physical Diagnosis and Treatment to Medical Students. Its format is easy to understand with Chapters specifically devoted to The Students, The Preceptors, and to The Patients. As Dr Raskind has found through his many years of precepting, the art of "Role playing", is an important adjunct to the learning process. There are twenty different simple clinical simulations that are available in the manual for role playing. The cases are easily copied to assist both the learner and the preceptor in the teaching process. This manual should make learning much easier for all involved in the precepting experience.
