Product Description

Journal of the Royal Society of Medicine, Vol 97
" . . . deserves to have a wide readership."

Review
The first edition of this book has long been a classic about skilled consulting. The authors have managed the impossible, the best just got better... This is well researched, well explained and well referenced - yet readable. This will inevitably be another success. (Practice Nurse )

[It] deserves to have a wide readership. (Journal of the Royal Society of Medicine, Vol 97 )

... excellent teaching and learning text... This highly recommended book is successful in its desire to inform, guide and redirect the teacher or learner. (Hospital Doctor )

I appreciate its clarity, rigour, and coherence. It is an especially valuable book because it raises questions which apply to many professions, it is about much more than medical consultations... [a] very stimulating and very good book. (Theodore Zeldin, Templeton College, Oxford )

5.0 out of 5 stars Essential , 13 Feb 2008
By Antonio Moncayo (Zaragoza) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)      
This is an essential book for final year medical students and GP FY2 doctors.

Is provides a very good insight in the structure of the consultation in primary care.

the first few chapters deal with what goes on before the patient meets the doctor and what factors can determine the outcome of a consultation before it even takes place.

The most important chapters to read are the TASKS on the consultation which lay the road map of most successful consultations. These 3 chapters compromise less than 50 pages and can read and understood in less than 2 hours.

More time can be spend reading about mapping and teaching consultations skills , but this book will provide the junior doctor all she/he needs to know about the basics of a primary care contact.

The reason I give the book five stars is because the authors manage to explain something relatively complex in a way that is easy to read and understand.

4.0 out of 5 stars Concise and Comprehensive, 7 Jun 2008
As a new GP Trainer, I was anxious to refresh my knowledge of the Consultation through David Pendleton and his co-authors' eyes.
It is a comprehensive work which makes references to Pendleton's previous teaching and succinctly cross-references to other pioneers of consultation analysis. Pendleton criticises those whom over the years quoted his rules or tasks out of context which he says renders them meaningless. He explains how they should be used and each chapter is summarised at the end.
The text does not make for light reading but themes re-occur, thereby aiding continuity. I would highly recommend this book to Trainers and Registrars.
