As populations live longer and the clinical needs of older adults become increasingly complex, effective geriatric care demands far more than the treatment of individual diseases. Clinicians must understand how aging physiology, multimorbidity, frailty, cognition, medications, functional capacity, social circumstances, and personal priorities interact to influence health, resilience, and recovery. This comprehensive, clinically grounded reference brings these dimensions together, connecting the science of aging with practical approaches to assessment, diagnosis, treatment, prevention, rehabilitation, and long-term care. Structured to progress from foundational principles to complex clinical management, this Modern Principles and Practice of Geriatric Medicine provides an integrated exploration of contemporary geriatric care across the continuum of later life, with comprehensive coverage of the following key areas: Foundations, Assessment, and Geriatric Syndromes explore: Biology, physiology, cellular mechanisms, and emerging science of agingHealthy aging, longevity, resilience, and age-related physiological changeComprehensive geriatric assessment and atypical presentations of diseaseFunctional assessment, multimorbidity, prognosis, and individualized clinical decision-makingFrailty, sarcopenia, falls, mobility impairment, functional decline, and major geriatric syndromesCognitive aging, dementia, delirium, neurological disorders, and late-life mental health Clinical Management and Specialized Geriatric Care provide in-depth guidance on: Cardiovascular, respiratory, endocrine, metabolic, renal, gastrointestinal, musculoskeletal, hematologic, oncologic, and infectious disordersPolypharmacy, age-related pharmacology, deprescribing, adverse drug events, and medication safetyNutrition, malnutrition, dysphagia, exercise, rehabilitation, and preservation of functional independenceAcute illness, emergency care, hospitalization, critical care, trauma, and perioperative managementTransitional, post-acute, home-based, residential, and long-term carePreventive care, palliative care, symptom management, advance care planning, and end-of-life careEthics, decision-making capacity, safeguarding, social determinants of health, health equity, and caregiver supportDigital health, telemedicine, artificial intelligence, geroscience, precision geriatrics, and emerging approaches to healthy longevity Throughout the text, disease management is integrated with physiological reserve, cognition, mobility, medication burden, nutrition, prognosis, social circumstances, and personal goals.
