As the first in the “Clinical Talk” series, the philosophy of this book is to have a set of question-based sections to help a final-year medical student prepare for exams. These sections include multiple choice questions (MCQs), extended matching questions (EMQs) and case studies. The idea is to have not just a “test yourself” book, but one which students can work through as a learning exercise as well as for revision purposes. For that reason, the answers and explanations provided here are just as important as the questions themselves.
Stansby and Goldberg have structured this book such that it complements one of their bestselling textbooks, Surgical Talk: Revision in Surgery.
Contents:
- Trauma, Shock, Head Injuries and Burns (S Carey & J Smout)
- Liver, Biliary Tract and Pancreas (R Lochan & R Charnley)
- Oesophagus, Stomach and Duodenum (C Streets & M Griffin)
- Colon Rectum and Anus (D Aitken & A Horgan)
- The Acute Abdomen (K Overbeck & D Overbeck-Zubrzycka)
- Breast Surgery (R Saif et al.)
- Head, Neck and Skin (M Hansrani & N Jones)
- Hernias (B Bannerjee & G Stansby)
- Fluid Balance and Parenteral Nutrition (I Nesbitt & J Cosgrove)

- Urology (R McGregor)
- Orthopaedics (A Goldberg)
- Ear, Nose and Throat (M Oko et al.)
- Pre- and Post-operative Management (I Nesbitt & J Cosgrove)
Readership: Third-, fourth- or final-year undergraduates (UK); medical students from countries with similar training to the UK, such as Singapore, Australia, South Africa, India and Pakistan.
Key Features:
- One of the few books with a range of question types and a “learning” rather than a “test yourself” approach.
- Questions and answers are verified to be of the highest standard
- Format matches the types of questions currently being used in most United Kingdom medical schools
