This up-to-date, clinically orientated handbook has been designed for students going through a term in obstetrics and gynaecology. It focuses on a core of information which will facilitate learning and enable students to understand the nature and clinical relevance of the topics covered in each chapter. The handbook should be useful to students sitting relevant examinations and also in a clinical situation where quick reference to an accurate guide is required. In addition, recently qualified residents and nursing staff will find the succinct presentation of clinical information appealing and useful. This book should be of interest to medical undergraduates and nurses.
