Editorial Reviews

Reviewer: Vincent F Carr, DO, MSA, FACC, FACP (Uniformed Services University of the Health Sciences)
Description: 100 Cases in General Practice is a text from the United Kingdom being published in its second edition.
Purpose: The cases and questions are typical of those seen in preparing for clinical examinations and are highly instructive.
Audience: The book is geared primarily towards those beginning their clinical careers in general practice, but the format can be useful to any clinician who wishes to refresh their memory of situations that less commonly present in their practice. The authors are from the U.K.
Features: Each of the 100 cases begins with a history and examination. These are followed by "what-would-you-do-next" type questions. The next page presents answers, with discussions and explanations of the best logic. The case is completed by a "Key Points" box with relevant clinical pearls that must be remembered.
Assessment: This is a very practical test preparation book for clinicians just beginning their study and careers.
