Summary: PaperbackSummary: ""Obstetrics Gynaecology: A Problem Based Approach"" is a new-style textbook with a problem-solving approach to obstetrics and gynaecology. The reader is presented with patients problems and taken through a structured approach to diagnosing the problem and solving it. The aim is to create a systematic and consistent approach, as required in clinical practice that will aid the reader to cope with clinical situations and exams. Each short chapter starts with presenting symptoms - unlike the typical textbook which discuss conditions but makes it difficult to recognise them. There are many simple line drawings (with a second colour to aid understanding) throughout, and each section ends with a Golden points box to highlight important points.
