Riassunto

Written specifically for trainee surgeons, this is a problem-based approach to the basic sciences. It differs from other books on the subject as it introduces each topic with a problem faced by the surgeon, and then looks at the anatomical, physiological and pathological basis of that particular problem. This is followed by the clinical presentation of the problem, what factors aggravate it and how it should be managed, including relevant surgical techniques. 'Integrated Basic Surgical Sciences' follows the format of the MRCS, AFRCS and Australasian examinations, providing an ideal textbook for candidates.

Recensione

The text is clearly presented and illustrated by useful tables and figures. A 'must' for surgical students following surgical basic training. This volume is also of interest to students in general, particularly those who have problem-based learning curricula.
British Journal of Surgery

It would be an invaluable reference to be kept in an emergency department and would also be suitable for students and junior residents. I would recommend it for all junior surgical registrars and for residents and students comtemplating a surgical career.
