| This surgical textbook attempts to explain the pathophysiological basis of surgical diseases and of their management to bridge the gap between the basic medical sciences and clinical problems. It uses a
problem-solving rather than a disease-oriented approach to diagnosis and treatment. The book includes information about epidemiology, disease prevention and the provision of health care. It tries to relate the community aspects of surgical
problems to aetiology, disease prevention and primary care. the book contains outlines of common surgical operations, to enable students and junior doctors to explain operations to patients and to allow them to participate intelligently in the
operating department, as well as giving them an understanding of how to prevent complications. There is a major section on accident surgery related to the general surgeon. |

| Learning about specific diseases that are usually treated with surgery, as well as understanding the principles of managing surgical patients, is integral to the education of undergraduate and postgraduate students

editorial team, along with a large number of contributors, offers a current and up-to-date approach to each subject. Stronger links to the renowned companion text, Davidson's Principles and Practice of Medicine, give students a
seamless method for cross-referencing relevant facts and ideas in general practice and surgery |

| This colour guide to clinical signs is aimed primarily at undergraduates, but can also be used as a revision aid for postgraduate surgical examinations. The emphasis is on common conditions, but rarer diseases which
present with classic clinical features are included. Some common and important conditions produce few specific signs which are difficult to photograph, and depend on special investigation for diagnosis, such as upper gastrointestinal cancer and
pancreatitis. There are scans and radiographs for some of these, while others, such as oesophageal carcinoma, have been purposely omitted. |
