Review:

"This title is another of those that is designed to allow a student to practice questions to assess their knowledge for finals examinations and also to experience the potential style of questions that they can expect to encounter.

What makes this title different to many others that I have encountered is that the questions are laid out in specific areas. Each chapter starts with an introduction to the topic that it covers with a few facts, after this there are a reasonable number of questions on that topic.

The disadvantage of this title is that the questions are laid out only by area, the title doesn't have any papers within it that give a mixture of topics of questions, though it is entirely possible for the student to flick through the title and do a range this is more problematic when it comes to checking the answers after.

In summary this title does have useful questions and explanations within it but if you are looking for a purely question title then there are others out there that cover a wider number of questions. That being said, I would recommend this title to you to get out of the library, see if it suites your style of revision and then possibly purchase it." (Medical Student, Lancaster University)
