"This book was written to fill the need for a concise revision guide to the core basic sciences. The text concentrates on recurring examination themes and topical issues to provide a useful framework for the study of all important concepts and facts." "For this Second Edition the immunology and genetics chapters have been thoroughly updated; there is a new section on molecular medicine; and new illustrations have been added to the anatomy chapter." "Intended primarily for MRCP Part 1 candidates this book will be of use to all studying for postgraduate examinations such as the US Medical Licensing Examination (MLE) and PLAB."--BOOK JACKET
