Recenzii

From the reviews:
“This is a detailed examination of Sjogren’s syndrome, from pathogenesis to diagnosis and treatment of the disease. One of the book’s greatest strengths is its utility as a reference. … appropriate for students, residents, and practitioners, but especially for practicing rheumatologists. … the book is quite enjoyable and easy to read cover-to-cover. The writing is clear and the subject is covered thoroughly. … This is probably the most outstanding, authoritative book on the subject that I have encountered. Any rheumatologist could benefit from reading it.” (Jonathan Miner, Doody’s Review Service, February, 2013)
