The first edition was written by a British surgeon with the aim of helping medical students learn how to take a full history and conduct a full clinical examination of patients with surgical disease. The fifth edition remains true to this original goal. The book is meant to be affordable, and the didactic material is well served by duplication in ebook format ... [which] is intended to provide portability and the ability to highlight information. This is an excellent book that amply fulfills its promise of providing information for medical students.
