Though each instance of any given disease will share features with others, each patient’s experience is unique, and assessment of their condition depends on taking and interpreting an individual patient’s history. Correct diagnosis and treatment decisions rely on a sound, evidence-based approach to this crucial clinical interaction.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-italic\"\u003eExploring Symptoms - An Evidence-based Approach to the Patient History\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e offers a rigorous analysis of the complex relationship between symptoms and patient communication.
