It covers the assessment and preparation of the patient, anaesthesia and critical care,

There are step by step descriptions of common operative surgical techniques, practical hints and procedures, and information on signs, symptoms and rarities. Emergency presentations are clearly
identified for rapid reference and investigations and management plans are set out in a clear and easy to follow way.
