There are sections on anatomy, paediatrics and trauma assessment, including pre- and post-operative care and complications, together with a comprehensive section on the common medications used in all three specialties.
The book will help improve a reader’s diagnostic skills and inform about current treatment options

New Features

In this second edition the authors have updated the content to reflect changes in surgical practice and advances in therapeutics, as well as the molecular understanding of genetic and inflammatory disorders.

Details of common procedures have been added.

The updated layout has new ‘overview’ and ‘hints and tips’ boxes.

The aim of the revision has been to provide concise and important information to both medical students revising for their exams, but also to junior doctors in their first years following graduation.
