Recenzijos
"this is a 'must-buy' for the trainee preparing for MRCOG Part 2. I would also thoroughly recommend this book for more junior trainees, who could use it as a quick educational tool for common obstetric and gynaecological topics. It is also a great addition to the consultant's bookshelf, providing trainers with up-to-date examples of current membership-style questions."
