"The text is clear and concise and serves its purpose well. Each chapter finishes with a few multiple choice questions that help focus the mind. Overall, a relatively short and worthwhile read / reference, especially for those in the run up to the FRCS exams." (Patrick Addison, The PMFA Journal, Vol. 04 (3), February - March, 2017)
