Surgery: v. 2

This book is a one-volume core revision text covering the three major surgical specialties of Orthopaedics, ENT and Ophthalmology, designed to help students assess their own knowledge through self-directed learning and exam preparation. The book assumes that the reader has had some teaching in surgery and has acquired some basic core knowledge. Self-assessment sections allow students to check their progress against a series of common clinical problems. This is a volume in the Churchill's Mastery of Medicine series - a major new series for medical students. For the above average student this text will be a valuable learning and review book going alongside the major textbooks. For the less able it will be ideal as the sole book to define the essential core of the subject and to ensure that it is understood, by use of the self-assessment material.
Features: * Concise synoptic text for rapid study and revision * Appropriate self-assessment material to allow for self-directed learning, tests both knowledge and understanding * Provides examination practice * Covers the essential core of each subject -- students don't have to worry about what chapters to revise for exams * Part of a co-ordinated series
