Review quotes
The book is obviously aimed at medics as there are lots of mentions of the relevant diseases and this makes the subject much easier to learn... it kept my interest going in the topic as I could see the relevance to the overall course.
The case studies are really good – a great way of integrating all the information and keeping students motivated.
