The Vaccine Handbook: A Practical Guide for Clinicians-1판

The Vaccine Handbook has a simple purpose- to draw together
authoritative information about vaccines into a simple and
concise resource that can be used in the office, clinic, and
hospital. Not an encyclopedia or scientific textbook, The
Vaccine Handbook gives practical advice and provides enough
background for the practitioner to understand the
recommendations and explain them to his or her patients.

For each vaccine, the authors discuss the disease and its
epidemiology, the vaccine’s efficacy and safety, and the
practical questions most frequently asked about the vaccine’s
use. The authors also discuss problems such as allergies,
breastfeeding, dosing intervals and missed vaccines, and
immunocompromised individuals.

This handbook is also available electronically for handheld
computers. See Media listing for details.
