Hazzard’s Geriatric Medicine and Gerontology
By Jeffrey Halter, Joseph Ouslander, Stephanie Studenski, Kevin High, Sanjay Asthana, Mark Supiano, Christine Ritchie, Kenneth Schmader
The undisputed authority on geriatrics — fully updated to incorporate the latest advances in the field
This is the premier textbook on geriatric medicine. It seamlessly integrates the principles of gerontology with clinical practice, delivering the most comprehensive coverage available. Grounded in evidence-based medicine and a patient-centered approach, Hazzard’s Geriatric Medicine and Gerontology provides the most current medical knowledge in the specialty.
The eighth edition reflects the ongoing expansion and growing sophistication of geriatrics as a distinct medical discipline. The text emphasizes the practical application of core concepts and covers both the foundational principles of the field and the syndromes most commonly encountered in older adults. It also offers valuable guidance on managing multiple concurrent conditions, including the psychological and social dimensions of care and how these factors interact — an essential element of geriatric practice.
