Synopsis

Part of the 'first wave' of our innovative new Systems of the Body series, here is an integrated textbook on the musculoskeletal system - covering it's structure, function and major diseases. It is ideal for systems courses as taught in the new medical curriculum.

Coverage of the basic science is clinically driven - a common clinical presentation introduces each major topic.

Clinical cases are used and explained in the chapter rather than merely being present to provide additional interest.

Coverage of major diseases of the musculoskeletal system equips students for the contact with patients which now occurs much earlier in the medical course.

Attractive, open two colour page design with objectives defined at the start of each chapter and self-assessment at the end.
