[Its] purpose is to showcase the most common primary care diseases through case presentations to facilitate clinical reasoning for non-medical prescribers, [which] are noteworthy objectives as many roles such as pharmacists and nurses have expanded, and the book allows additional support for their clinical decision-making…. [W]ritten for undergraduates and practitioners new to clinical reasoning, particularly for pharmacists and nurses with advanced degrees,… as it provides a learning tool to improve clinical abilities…. [It] is useful as it is intended to aid non-medical practitioners who perform a triage role in primary care settings. [Also] emphasizes the effectiveness of clinical reasoning when making a diagnosis as well as skills needed to facilitate clinical reasoning through communication, evidence-based practice, and shared decision making.” ©Doody’s Book Review Service, 2025, Yen Dang, PharmD (University of Maryland Eastern Shore) Doody’s Score: 95, 4 Stars!
