"The second edition of Practical Occupational Medicine bridges the gap between day-to-day clinical practice, concerned primarily with diagnosis and treatment of disease, and occupational health practice which is concerned with the prevention of work-related disease and the management of ill health in relation to the workplace." "All aspects of the clinician's role are covered, from occupational history-taking through to rehabilitation and health promotion. Important changes for this new edition include succinct summaries on key principles of good practice, enhanced international applicability and a new chapter on the environment and health. In addition to general revision and updates throughout the text, the case histories have been revisited, and the chapters dealing with sickness, absence, disability and fitness for work have been thoroughly rewritten."--BOOK JACKET.
