Abstract:	Osteoarthritis is the most common joint disorder and represents a massive problem in our aging and overweight society. Nevertheless, by tailoring management to the individual's needs, the authors of "Fast Facts: Osteoarthritis" believe that "something can be done to help every person with osteoarthritis". This fully updated second edition provides a clinically relevant, all-in-one reference for all providers caring for individuals with OA, including: expert guidance on well-established diagnostic criteria and investigations; up-to-date, practical information on non-pharmacological management, including strengthening exercises and complementary medicines; and, joint-specific treatments for the hand, hip and knee, including intra-articular corticosteroid injections. For all healthcare professionals who have ever felt unable to provide effective therapy for this disease, or who have encountered negative patient and community attitudes to joint pain, "Fast Facts: Osteoarthritis" is essential reading.
