Description This title is directed primarily towards health care professionals outside of the United States. It is part of a series of books that
reflects the trend towards a core curriculum and self-directed learning. The content is restricted to the ‘must know' core information
presented in a synoptic style. The diagrams that support the text are in a style that the reader can remember and reproduce in examinations.
Each chapter ends with a selection of self-assessment material and full explanatory answers. These consolidate and expand on the chapter
contents.
