Obstetrics and Gynaecology has established itself as a key textbook and a classic favourite for medical students. The opening sections of this new edition incorporate the relevant basic science, history and examination, investigations and diagnosis, as well as common diseases, abnormalities, and complications in gynaecology and obstetrics respectively. These are supported by two unique separate sections on gynaecology and obstetrics management, which are tailored to help students revise for exams, especially OSCEs. The overall emphasis on patient diagnosis and management means that both medical students and postgraduate candidates have found this book invaluable.
