This practical handbook is aimed primarily at GPs and covers all aspects of women's health care. It covers areas not normally included in standard gynaecology textbooks - the common ailments that women take to the GP as well as more serious problems. The book is very readable with a section in each chapter on the questions patients commonly ask (and the answers).
