Product Description

This book is a one-volume core revision text covering general surgery and the minor surgical specialties, designed to stimulate the student into assessing his/her own knowledge during self-directed learning and exam preparation. The book assumes the student has had some teaching in surgery and has acquired some basic core knowledge. The book promotes self-directed learning with motivation coming from self-identification of strengths and weaknesses leading to an assessment of needs.

The structure of the book is as follows:

  • division into the main sections: general surgery, urology, cardiothoracic surgery, vascular surgery, plastic surgery and neurosurgery
  • a core text examining the main surgical diseases in a synoptic text
  • a self-assessment section at the end allowing the student to assess the progress in the application of the facts to common clinical problems.

    Highly recommended for Clinical Med Students:5
    As with all the books in the Master Medicine series, you will use one and then tell all your friends about it and buy more in the series!
    As a clinical medical student, these books have been invaluable both on the wards and as a revision tool. I understand concepts now that have passed me by for four years.
    Definitely recommended.

    This is a concise and clear guide on surgery (minus Orthopedics and ENT & Opthalmology which are found in the second volume). I used this book to revise for finals and it gave me a good framework of understanding for most of what I encountered in my exams. Well worth it. (NB. I used this edition, which is not the latest edition, but generally the series improves with each reprint)
