Synopsis

This is a textbook of applied basic science for the MRCS. It covers all the relevant sciences - anatomy, physiology and pathology - but in the format of the MRCS syllabus. It is divided into the same structure of core modules and system modules and revises the sciences accordingly. It concentrates throughout on the application of these sciences and (in the system chapters) includes text on the clinical features of the surgery as relevant to the science.

About this title

Review

"Perfect for quick refreshing or cover to cover swotting....A true gem" David Miller, 3rd year Medical Student, Glasgow University

''Applied Basic Science is an excellent textbook. The book is concise and clearly written, but at the same time gives a good depth of information. It is divided into two parts: General Pathology and Microbiology and Specific Systems. Noted experts in their fields contribute chapters within these parts. The use of diagrams and tables helps to highlight the most relevant points. Specific boxes on issues in immunodeficiency and evidence based medicine are particularly useful.'' Philip Xiu
