Description
The unique and award-winning Unofficial Guides series is a collaboration between senior students, junior doctors and specialty experts. This combination of contributors understands what is essential to excel on your course, in exams and in practice - as well as the importance of presenting information in a clear, fun and engaging way. Packed with hints and tips from those in the know, when you are in a hurry and need a study companion you can trust, reach for an Unofficial Guide.

The Unofficial Guide to Surgery provides a succinct yet comprehensive guide to the most common operations - what they are, why people are listed for surgery, how the surgery is done, post-operative care and possible complications. There are full colour illustrations of every procedure.

This book will be invaluable for medical students and junior doctors and also as a day-to-day reference for professionals.
