This revised edition emphasizes clinical problem-solving in tropical medicine, adopting a global and syndromic approach. Section A organizes clinical presentations by body systems and syndromes, allowing readers to quickly find relevant diagnostic clues. Section B provides essential knowledge and clinical guidance on major tropical infections, including malaria and leprosy. The final section addresses serious tropical diseases, categorized by their primary body system presentation, featuring conditions like cholera, hepatitis, and scabies. New chapters expand the traditional scope of tropical medicine, including discussions on HIV/AIDS, reflecting their significant impact in tropical regions, as well as non-communicable diseases and their management. A chapter on refugee health addresses humanitarian emergencies, epidemic control, and health assessments for asylum seekers. Enhanced with carefully selected color plates and more illustrations, this edition effectively portrays clinical conditions. This fifth edition serves as a practical companion for medical students and junior doctors practicing in tropical environments, and is also a vital resource for clinicians treating patients with tropical disorders.
