'Excellent...the cases are very accurate and comprehensive.' - Consultant and Lecturer, Newcastle University 'This is good - the cases cover everything I have seen as a medical student in a typical medical take and all the emergency scenarios I should be aware of, deals with diagnosis and management, with good discussion of the rationale...the cases unfold in the way they would in the hospital, and questions are asked at pertinent times.' - Medical Student, Oxford University 'Easy to read and understand...This book includes everything we needed to cover whilst on placement, covering a wide range of realistic situations...a bonus about this book is that it contains practical information that you can't find in a lot of respiratory books...The examination section is brilliant...the cases are clear and easy to follow.' - Medical Student, University of East Anglia
