(<i>Sphincter, Liverpool Medical Students' Society Magazine</i>) <p>This is an excellent pocket-sized edition, which will prove to be invaluable in revision for the membership examinations.... A useful reference book, both for learning and revision. It achieves what many MCQ books fail to deliver - the complete answer, not just the reason why a stem is correct... (<i>Barts and the London Chronicle</i>, Autumn 2000)</p> <p>...It is tight-lipped. It neatly summarises each field/subject. It uses tables and bulleted sentences. It fits neatly into a pocket. It tells you nothing that isn't essential. It's about internal medicine. It does exactly what is says on the cover. (<i>Black Bag - Bristol Medical School Gazette</i>, 2000)</p><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><p><strong>Nicholas J.
