Adherence to Treatment in Medical Conditions covers all aspects within its fields and includes chapters on the role of doctor-patient communication; memory; adherence in specific groups, such as children and the elderly; adherence to different treatments, such as diet and exercise; and reviews of adherence in specific conditions such as diabetes and asthma.
