Full Description
An up to date book for anyone considering a medical career, and for those in medical school. It covers both getting in and how to shape your career once you are there. The authors themselves are recent graduates from medical school, but have enough experience of being doctors to write about what it is like after qualification. The book will be user friendly, with bullet points and personal experience vignettes written by people in different disciplines. The changing structure of the NHS, as well as changes in teaching methods will be addressed.
