Summary: "The authors provide in-depth, accurate information, a compelling continuing case study that covers every step in the assessment process, a focus on diversity and health assessment through the lifespan. New features: focused/specialized assessments signaled with icons and introduced with explanatory text help differentiate between skills that are more specialized for specific settings. and communicating findings boxes that include brief biographical information and the patient's chief concern followed by a report of "significant positives" and "significant negatives."--
