"Oxford Cases in Medicine and Surgery takes a hypothesis-driven, step-by-step, logical diagnostic approach to common patient presentations. This hands on approach, which stimulates active learning, mirrors that used by successful clinicians on the wards. It is an approach that challenges you with questions at each stage of a case (history-taking, examination, investigation , management). In tackling these questions, you learn to integrate your existing knowledge and apply it to a real-life scenario from start to finish." "With references to landmark trials, relevant guidelines, and the inclusion of questions that are frequently asked in clinical set tings, this book is an essential resource for all medicine students, and provides a modern, well-rounded introduction to life on the wards."--BOOK JACKET.
