Surgery at a glance

http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/514XVGFXVFL._SL210_.jpg by Pierce A. Grace (Author), Neil R. Borley (Author) Reviews of the current edition "Quality! It is unsurprising this textbook is such a hit with students, probably for the way it condenses the essentials of what is a massive subject into such manageable segments. Taking a symptom based journey through surgery, Surgery at a Glance gives enough information to help you get the basics so you don't look like such an iegit when on a ward round the consultant asks you for 6 clinical features of appendicitis! ...It's a smashing little book!!!" Black Bag, Bristol University Medical School Gazette "Surgery at a Glance presents clinical students with digestible chunks of essential knowledge at their fingertips and is written in a style that is easy to understand...The style of text combined with clean cut illustrations really makes Surgery at a Glance essential, not only for junior and senior surgery firms but also for finals revision. A snip at under £20, can you afford not to have it?" Sharp, St George's Union Magazine "Overall, this is a very modern comprehensive coverage of a range of surgical conditions. I would recommend this book as an excellent resource for any surgical unit." Journal of Perioperative Practice, May 2006 "This is a book that allows you to see the big picture, and gives you the framework to further build your knowledge base from other sources. Fans of the at a Glance series will adore it." GKT Gazette, March 2007 "(the book's) organisation enables learning to be focused in a manner that takes into account the ways that patients present to doctors and then supports it by giving details of specific conditions." Cambridge Medicine Reviews of the previous edition “Rating * * * * *. Excellent! Great value for money.”Cambridge Medicine, Addenbrooke’s Clinical Medical School “This book should appeal to those who like to access information with the least effort… good for cementing and organising your knowledge… does effectively what its forebears do for undergraduate subjects: simplify illustrate and explain in a user-friendly format.” 2nd Opinion, The magazine of Scottish Medical Schools “This book is ideal for finals as diagrams help the revision-numbed mind to retain information. It is extremely quick and easy to read and the list-based information is an ideal basis for short-answer questions” Barts and the London Chronicle “This delightful book is the latest in the At a Glance series and only the second on a purely clinical subject… The quality of the diagrams is such that for the majority of the topics the text is almost superfluous” British Journal of Surgery “offers clinical students a valuable resource and revision aid for general surgery and other surgical areas that are likely to be seen in finals. Each of the 76 chapters consist of definitions, common causes, clinical features, investigations, and management; a useful strategy that can be applied to most clinical problems.” Student BMJ "The beauty is in the illustrations; simple line drawings, laden with succinct information and memorable."
