Undergraduate Obstetrics and Gynaecology

Presentation of the complete obstetrics and gynaecology undergraduate syllabus in this readily accessible, pocket-sized format has proved to be enduringly successful. Extensive revision has been undertaken. This ensures that it will continue to provide a concise, but rationalised and unified text which fulfils the requirements of the General Medical Council and which also encompasses the need for practical knowledge and understanding by general medical practitioners. It explains clearly the scientific basisfor clinical practice but, as the same time, care has been taken to reflect changing practice and attitudes towards emotional and ethical issues. Providing sufficient surgical information to assist general practitioners manage their patients, the book also addresses the wide arena of reproductive health care in women.
