This is a surprisingly good way to refresh yourself on a whole load of information before exams or clinics. The layout is good - section one goes through symptoms, section two focusses on diseases. Each topic has a full double page spread with diagrams on the left and text on the right. Pages are clean and spread out so you can fill the space with your own jottings. Most of the pertinent information you need is there but it doesn't give you anything extra. The diagrams are generally pretty useful and tend not to fall into the common trap of being far too busy.
This is not a book from which to learn all of surgery in depth but you want a quick, no fluff, whizz through surgery with the important points highlighted, this is the book for you.
