Following each case history there are lists of differential diagnoses, vocabulary lists and lists of descriptive words in the form of "word collocates." The third and fourth parts of the book contain several types of work lists, all aimed at quickly enriching the readers vocabulary, and the fifth part contains medical abbreviations, also abbreviations for the U.K. medical Appendix to the book includes illustrations with names of parts of the body and main organs.
