The Crash Course book series has been a trusted favourite for generations of medical students having sold over 1 million copies internationally and translated in 8 different languages. New additions to the series, these unique 'Crash Cards' comprehensively cover both clinical medicine (including cardiology, respiratory, gastrointestinal, neurology, locomotor, endocrine, infectious disease) and surgery (neck, thyroid, breast, musculoskeletal, vascular, abdomen, urology and thorax), with high yield clinical case vignettes on the topics you're most likely to encounter in the exams.
