The book offers a practical guide for doctors, guiding them through the interpretation of symptoms and linking observations into a comprehensive diagnosis. The structure of the book is divided into chapters that deal in detail with various aspects of the clinical examination: from the analysis of the patient's appearance, behavior and environment to specific physical signs on the body (skin, hair, veins, muscles, bones, organs).
Risak particularly emphasizes the importance of the doctor's "eye" - his ability to notice subtle changes - and describes how these changes are associated with various diseases. The book also includes advice on communicating with the patient, taking into account his emotional state, age, gender and social context.
Although it does not make revolutionary discoveries, the work is appreciated for its methodicality and clarity, making it a useful tool for medical students and practitioners. Written during the Second World War, the book also reflects the historical context, but the publisher Springer notes in later editions that its possible political-ideological coloring from that period is not promoted.
