Customer Reviews

good book
This is a great basic book. Good to start before hitting onto the bigger texts of Ryder and Ballinger. Would make sure you can do all the cases in this book as a minimum then go through rider (don't forget the gold one for Hx/communication stations) and can use Ballinger for additional questions although it's answers are sometimes a bit out of date. I passed first time..it can be done!!! Lots of work and long hours on the wards though :(

Excellent revision book for paces
Excellent book for PACES revision but also for final year medical student. Very good discussion and relevant cases.
