"This book covers all the examinations needed for a clinical medical student. The text is clear and the illustrations are good." Medical Student - UK "The quality of illustration is excellent - from the line drawings to the radiographs and colour plates...In summary, this is a book that must be indispensable to medical students who are starting their clinical work but wouldn't be out of place as a refresher for GPs in the surgery." Dr Jeremy Sager, Univadis, Oct 2008
