Product Description

General surgery is the second biggest subject in the clinical part of the medical curriculum. Virtually all students will buy a surgical textbook of some form. At this stage in their career they are not studying operative surgery, instead they are learning about diseases that are usually treated surgically and the principles of the management of such patients. This is one of our two main surgical textbooks (Burkitt: Essential Srurgery is the other). It was devised as a surgical equivalent to Davisdon and is written by a primarily Edinburgh based team of authors. It is a traditional book in the sents that it is disease-based and is ordered by body systems. Burkitt is more problem-based. Forrest is written as a coplete text to enable the student to appreciate both the medical and surgical implications of diseases encountered on surgical wards.
