Aids to General Practice, 3e

Written in the "Aids" format of lists and tables, this text summarizes the essentials of general practice in terms of both common clinical conditions and practice management. It should be useful for trainees revising for the MRCGP exam and for students sitting examinations or assessments as part of their undergraduate curriculum. The book provides information on practice management, an area often neglected in medical literature. It also covers areas of recent development, such as the British Thoracic Society's new guidelines on asthma; an appreciation of the role of Helicobacter pylori in the pathogenesis of peptic ulcers; new drugs and vaccines; and other topics.
