BMJ of the 1st edition: Fortunately this book is not just another
revision guide. I have never read a textbook with such intelligent
potential. The intention is that you learn in many ways and appreciate
the information rather than just memorise it. The book uses several
tools: historical vignettes, mnemonics, pictures, poems, puzzles, tables
and equations. They all reinforce the facts and - dare I say it - make
all this arduous learning enjoyable. And that it is humorous and well
written makes it all the more useful.
 
     Product Description
 This second edition has been adjusted to reflect the new written
examination, which is now a 'best of five' format. While that may
initially seem easier than the old format, the reality is that it can
still be confusing when all five choices seem to be plausible answers.
Knowing some basic facts will help students to tackle this situation
with ease. To reflect the changes, three new authors have joined the
ranks. Having recently (and eventually!) succeeded in passing the new
format of the examination, the newbies have added questions on topics
such as atrial fibrillation, tuberculosis, HIV and diabetes that, in
their recent experience, reflect the changing emphasis of the
examination. In addition, they have included a few images and ECGs,
which will test your problem-solving abilities in addition to knowledge
of the facts. Most importantly, we hope that this book will give
pleasure, as much to the student as to the more qualified reader, and,
whoever you are, we hope that you will enjoy your lessons. But remember -
don't leave your room smiling. Maintain the myth of the tortured youth
