Editorial Reviews
From the Publisher
[The end chapters contain] topics [that] are often asked in exams to catch out those students who have not been attending and thus would not be aware of the different roles of professionals in primary care. These chapters are good for summarising some important topics that are often not covered in books.Medical Student, University College London, UK
