Review
"Overall, this book is very good: a useful reference and revision aid. It has excellent illustrations and well-sectioned chapters. It is a nice size book and a good compromise between a detailed textbook for reference and a revision/recap summary... A very useful book." "2002 BMA award judge's comments"
