Author Description

This unique book was created specifically to fill the gap in the revision literature for the critical reading section of the MRCGP exam. All the major areas covered by the exam are dealt with in a question and answer format, designed to give the candidate a feel for the time constraints and pressures of actually sitting the exam. The conceptually difficult areas of ‘risk’ and ‘numbers needed to treat’ are included, as knowledge of these is essential for a thorough appreciation of research and critical appraisal techniques. Finally, the contents of the book are summarised in a handy revision section, as a last-minute reminder of the essentials on the eve of the exam.
