Reviews / Votes
A careful read of this series is virtually 'compulsory' for all candidates for the intercollegiate final FRCS examination in general surgery. It is also required reading for all busy consultants and general surgeons, so that we feel faintly 'guilty' if we haven't done it.Postgraduate Medical Journal
In summary, the book is relevant and enjoyable. The authors have carefully selected topics that would be of interest to most general surgeons. I would recommend it to any grade of surgeon who wishes to remain informed of advances in all branches of general surgery.
Hospital Doctor, November 2004
Its aim is to provide a comprehensive survey of general surgery for senior trainees preparing for the intercollegiate examination. There is no doubt that it admirably fulfills its ambition in this respect. Indeed candidates would be well advised to ensure that they have access to a copy. It is well written and could be regarded as relatively light reading later in the evening or perhaps whilst waiting for a slot in the operating theatre. It will also prove helpful to more senior colleagues as an updated review of areas outside their mainstream clinical activity.
