"Oxford Cases in Medicine and Surgery, Second Edition, teaches students a logical step-by-step diagnostic approach to common patient presentations. This hypothesis-driven approach mirrors that used by successful clinicians on the wards, challenging students with questions at each stage of a case (history-taking, examination, investigation, management). In tackling these questions, students understand how to critically analyze information and learn to apply their existing knowledge to a real-life scenario from start to finish."--Back cover.
