| This leading introductory textbook of
orthopaedics provides medical students, trainee surgeons and other
health professionals with an invaluable overview of this important
specialty. Praised in previous editions for the systematic approach,
balanced content and easy-to-read style, the new edition has been
brought fully up to date, with additional detail on anatomy, an improved
focus on actual diseases and clinical signs and the introduction of
handy 'stop check' points. Over 800 illustrations, many new to this
third edition, are arranged as composites to provide a clear, pictorial
account of the subject, and can be used in association with the text and
as a revision tool. The book remains the first choice for those seeking
a brief account of this large and complex subject, and is a natural
precursor to the more detailed coverage offered by its larger parent
'Apley's System of Orthopaedics and Fractures' for those wishing to
pursue a career in orthopaedics. |

| A knowledge and understanding of disease processes is essential for effective
surgical practice and all surgeons in training are required to exhibit this understanding throughout the
examinations leading to the MRCS/AFRCS. In particular, trainees need to have a comprehensive knowledge of
systemic pathology, especially those in body systems in which they will later become specialists. This text
offers the essential facts which a trainee surgeon needs in order to succeed in the Basic Training element of
postgraduate surgical training. |

It includes discussion of laboratory aspects of antimicrobial use and brief overviews of the scientific
rationale behind the treatment of common infections encountered by surgeons. |
