Product Description

Review

In short it's a little surgical gem. Glasgow University Medical Journal [It] perfectly summarises surgery in all its glory... a concise and appropriate text for students and doctors alike... the 'Practical Hints and Procedures' is pure genius... I highly recommend this handbook for anyone embarking on a surgical rotation. GKT Surgical Society Website This book... is destined to enter the hearts, mind and pockets of medical students, housemen, junior surgical trainees and a myriad of other healthcare professionals... forms part of the essential kit for anyone who employs the art and science of surgery to improve the quality of life of their patients. GKT Surgical Society Website It goes the extra mile to provide enough up-to-date information to satisfy even the most hair-splitting consultant. I found it an indespensable assistant on the wards.

3.0 out of 5 stars Don't be fooled, 1 Nov 2005
By S. Sinha "sid261" (London) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
The title of this book tricks you into thinking that it covers what you need to know for the operative surgery part of the MRCS. Unfortunately it doesn't. It's essentially a general surgery textbook - like a compact version of Lecture Notes on General Surgery. It does NOT cover ANY anatomy or surgical technique (in contrast to the very good but extremely out of date Oxford Handbook of OPERATIVE Surgery). To be honest I would stick with Last's Anatomy and Essential Basic Surgical Operations for anatomy and operative surgery. The "general facts" - you know, stuff like definition/prevalence/prognosis etc etc - is covered here quite well but is better done in the Pastest Core and Systems books which you probably already read for the written papers.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great for undergraduate students, 7 Sep 2009
By J. Kavanagh (Birmingham, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Oxford Handbook of Clinical Surgery (Oxford Handbooks Series) (Paperback)
The most important thing to realise about this book is that it is ideal for medical students on their general surgery rotations. It covers everything a student needs to know about general surgery in succinct detail. It is a little lacking in anatomy / diagrams but that is what Gray's is for! I'm not surprised the MRCS types are disappointed as it seems to be pitched below that level. However, it is great for me (5th year medical student at Birmingham University) and I use it as a main textbook as it summarises all the knowledge from larger books, such as "Principles and Practice of Surgery", without a lot of the unnecessary detail that is only needed later on in surgical training. Definately one of the best oxford handbooks.

3.0 out of 5 stars OK but could be better
This textbook is ok. It appears to be designed to fit the current i MRCS syllabus which is good for revision purposes. Read more
