{"product_id":"9781468445169","title":"Contemporary Geriatric Medicine: Volume 1","description":"\u003ch1\u003eContemporary Geriatric Medicine: Volume 1\u003c\/h1\u003e \u003ch2\u003eGambert, Steven\u003c\/h2\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis volume marks the first of a new series, Contemporary Geriatric Medicine, joining the ever growing \"Contemporary\" family. As with the other \"Contem­ porary\" volumes, our goal is to assist the reader in maintaining currency in a rapidly changing field. Perhaps no field has shown such major advances in such a short time as geriatrics. Over the last several years, the \"demographic impera­ tive\" has become a source of concern for many, including clinicians, scientists, econ­ omists, and health planners. Our geriatric knowledge base continues to grow, often making it difficult to keep abreast of advances and current therapeutic modalities. Contemporary Ger­ iatric Medicine presents the state-of-the-art thinking regarding a variety of topics all of major concern to the health practitioner caring for the elderly person. The authors, for the most part serving as members of a stable editorial board, have chosen topics that should have immediate interest to the readership. By having a stable editorial board, continuity is ensured in successive volumes. Every two years, a subsequent issue will either address new thoughts on already presented topics or focus on new topics of current interest. As with the other \"Contempo­ rary\" series volumes, the every other year interval is intended to allow new find­ ings to develop and be tested. It also provides the authors with time to provide the highest quality of work.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2012-03-14\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9781468445169\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-1-4684-4514-5\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 229cm x152cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 412\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer US","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44448694403212,"sku":"9781468445169","price":49.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9781468445169.jpg?v=1775819460","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9781468445169","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
