Ferri's Clinical Advisor is really "5 books in 1" as it is organized into five clear sections which include diseases and disorders, differential diagnosis, clinical algorithms, laboratory tests and clinical practice guidelines. The diseases and disorders section encompasses most of the text and includes bulleted information as well as tables, algorithms, and graphics. In the first section, each disease or disorder has standardized subcategories. Each page includes headers with clear graphics indicating access to additional online material, patient teaching guides and algorithms. The differential diagnosis portion of the text includes ICD-10 codes and possible etiologies in a list format. The clinical algorithms section includes tables, graphs, flow charts, images, and algorithms. The laboratory tests and interpretation of results section includes synonyms for the laboratory tests as well as normal ranges and potential interpretation of abnormal results. The concluding section, entitled clinical practice guidelines, largely contains information on immunizations. The sections are well-organized, and the writing is succinct and easy to follow. It is useful for a quick reference or a slightly deeper dive into clinical topics
