Complementing the main body of questions are a number of 'teaching' and two-step questions-designed to strengthen clinical reasoning skills, highlight important issues, and expand knowledge of contemporary 'hot' topics. Written by an experienced team of physicians and educators, this must-have book:

Provides a thorough review of the latest FRACP basic training syllabus
