Customer Reviews

excellent revision filler
When your brain is hurting from a long day of revision for MCEM or FCEM and you think you can't take any more, a flip though this book is light enough to be tolerable yet still delivers real knowledge. I recommend it to all the trainees who are in the throes of revision. It won't necessarily teach you all you need to know but it will highlight areas of weakness and reinforce areas of strength.
