Customer Reviews

comprehensive coverage of the basics

Like many in the Lecture Notes series this book provides reasonably comprehensive coverage of its subject. The important syndromes and most of the undergraduate syllabus are dealt with in a clear and straight-forward manner making this as good a text for a first look as for last minute revision. More interested readers will find it a good launch pad for more in-depth studies. I recommend it to undergraduate medics as a book that should get you through finals with room to spare.
