The style is interactive and encourages usage among small groups in preparation for examinations. The user-friendly layout makes it easy and enjoyable to work through. This book is ideal for students and junior doctors revising for clinical exams, allowing them to learn new things about certain emergencies and to consolidate their knowledge.
