Читать книгу Clinical Guide to Oral Diseases - Crispian Scully - Страница 10
Foreword
ОглавлениеIt is an honor and an immense satisfaction for me to provide the prologue for this book for two main reasons: the experience of its authors and the originality of this proposed editorial. When reviewing this ‘’Clinical Guide to Oral Diseases”, one is surprised by the practical perspective with which its authors have imbued it, combining basic principles of problem‐based learning with excellent images and an accurate and essential critical overview for arguing the differential diagnosis of each injury. Throughout the 27 chapters, the authors conduct an exhaustive review of the most common oral injuries based on the discussion of case studies. This approach perfectly combines Dimitris Malamos’ clinical experience and Crispian Scully’s academic rigor.
All of these features make this book a cross‐sectional work, which can be useful both for undergraduate students, general dentists and specialists in the setting of medical‐surgical dentistry. In the end, the success of the clinical activity is not based on academic titles but rather on the knowledge and expertise of the observer. In some manner, Professor Scully had already promulgated this idea during his final years, because he tended to end his emails with a phrase attributed to Goethe, “One only sees what one looks for. One only looks for what one knows.”
