Hints and Tips and Comprehension Check boxes are built-in features designed to make the series student-friendly. A practice exam at the end enables students to assess their level of understanding. The "Basic Science" titles are written by medical students for medical students under faculty supervision, the content focuses in on what medical students really need to know. The Clinical titles are written by a senior consultant and a junior doctor who has recent experience of being a student - again making the books as relevant as possible for current medical students.
