This title is directed primarily towards health care professionals outside of the United States. The Master Medicine series of books are ideal for the new approach to teaching, emphasising a core curriculum and self-directed learning. The content is restricted to the 'must know' core information and is presented in a synoptic style. The diagrams that support the text are in a style that students can remember and reproduce in exams. Each chapter ends with a selection of self-assessment material and full explanatory answers that consolidate and expand on the chapter contents.
