Shyamanga Borooah, Peng Yong Sim, Mark Wright, Baljean Dhillon
$22.95

Titles in the Pocket Tutor series give practical guidance on subjects that medical students and foundation doctors need help with ‘on the go’, at a highly-affordable price that puts them within reach of those rotating through modular courses or working on attachment.

Topics reflect information needs stemming from today’s integrated undergraduate and foundation courses:

  • Common presentations
  • Investigation options (e.g. ECG, imaging)
  • Clinical and patient-orientated skills (e.g. examinations, history-taking)
  • The highly-structured, bite-size content helps novices combat the ‘fear factor’ associated with day-to-day clinical training, and provides a detailed resource that students and junior doctors can carry in their pocket.


Key points

  • New edition features completely updated text and revised diagnostic algorithms
  • Over 50 brand-new, high-quality clinical images
  • Highly-affordable price and convenient pocket-size format
  • Breaks down a subject that students receive little teaching on using clear images, concise and informative text, and specific management scenarios.
