Description
This title is directed primarily towards health care professionals outside of the United States. It has been written to encompass the
basic anatomy, physiology and pathology required by the syllabus of the UK Royal Colleges and the Intercollegiate Surgical Curriculum
Project. For this Second Edition many of the chapters have been updated, especially the chapters on immunology, basic microbiology,
the endocrine and locomotor systems and the breast. An attempt has been made throughout to indicate the clinical relevance of the facts
and the reason for learning them. There are several new contributors to the author team, all of whom are experts in their field and
many of them are, or have been, experienced examiners at the various UK Royal Colleges.
