About this title

Review

"At first glance this book might be dismissed as just another book of lists to weigh heavily (both financially and literally) on the medical student s pocket. However, such a view does this outstanding publication a double injustice. Many textbooks inflict pain, pain on the medical student reading, the teacher examining and the patient subjected to the fruits of such labours. Medicine for Examinations can alleviate the necessity for such suffering. The weight (and wait) is worth it."Scanner see this as ... a useful adjunct to revision, to working around an occasional topic, and to becoming used to the common questions asked and how you are going to deal with them."Guy s Hospital Gazette are novel diagrams, illustrating the approach to examining a patient with a particular problem, which are useful and successful."King s Gazette
