This illustrated guide is a companion to "Examining Patients". Aimed at recently qualified doctors, it covers the most commonly encountered practical procedures. It includes useful pedagogic features, and covers the techniques on which the MRCP candidate would be expected to be familiar and might be questioned in the Viva exam. Changes in postgraduate training are putting greater emphasis on the structured acquisition of clinical skills, a trend which is reflected in this book.
