ABC of Rheumatology is a practical, introductory guide to the diagnosis, management and treatment of rheumatology and rheumatic diseases for the non-specialist. It provides detailed overviews of all major areas of rheumatology and includes updated information on new treatments, therapies, evidence and guidelines.

An informative and practical source of knowledge, with highly illustrated chapters including boxed summaries, links to further information, reading and resources, this well established ABC title is an accessible reference for all primary care health professionals, general practitioners, family physicians, junior doctors, medical students and nurses.

In addition to being fully revised to reflect developments since publication of the fourth edition in 2009, this new fifth edition includes new chapters on Basic Immunology and the Biologic Era, and Musculoskeletal Radiology. There is also expanded coverage on metabolic bone disease, chronic widespread pain and complex regional pain syndrome.

This edition includes a new co-editor, Dr Lisa Dunkley, who is a consultant rheumatologist with a special interest in the teaching and medical education.
