SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
"Core Clinical Cases - a problem solving approach guides you to think of the patient as a whole, rather than as a sequence of unconnected symptoms. With its practical approach strongly linked to underlying theory, the series integrates your knowledge with the realities of managing clinical problems, and provides a basis for developing problem-solving skills." "The core areas of undergraduate study are covered in a logical sequence of learning activities: each case is followed by a detailed answer, along with a number of OSCE-style questions to help you practise for the exam, Related OSCE counselling questions and answers also feature at the end of each section." "Key concepts and important information are highlighted, and the reader-friendly layout reflects exactly the type of question you will encounter, making this the perfect revision aid for all types of case-based examination."--BOOK JACKET.
