Osteoarthritis by D John Dickson
Arthritis is very common in the general population, and osteoarthritis is the commonest form, particularly in older people. There is a real need for up-to-date, appropriate information to enable the primary care practitioner to address patients' queries and concerns and assist them in self-management of this painful and debilitating complaint. This book, written in the popular Q and A format of the "Your Questions Answered" series, provides this information, so that GPs can better understand and treat patients with osteoarthritis. Answers are presented in a succinct, accessible style, with emphasis on evidence-based knowledge. Both authors are members of the Primary Care Rheumatology Society, as well as practising GPs.
Both authors are prominent members of the Primary Care Rheumatology Society (John Dickson is a founding member, and currently Business Manager. Gillian Hosie was Chairman of Research and President of the Society 1998-2001.) John Dickson is also on the Education sub committee of the Arthritis Research Campaign.
Both authors have published a number of journal papers and together co-wrote 'The Management of Osteoarthritis in Primary Care' (Blackwell, June 2000, isbn 0632053534). John Dickson is also editor of the ARC publication'In Practice'.
