This time honoured classic has been re-built completely: after six editions the editor has decided that a radical revision is necessary. The new edition has been developed as a result of intensive consultation with trainees in OB/GYN as to what they want, what they need and how they learn. The book is organised into two halves covering obstetrics and gynaecology. Within each, the chapters are structured into sections containing pedagogic features such as boxes, highlights and key points for the first time. It contains everything the clinician needs to practice the art of obstetrics and gynaecology and sufficient information to help sub-specialists develop their specific interests. This text is recommended reading for the Royal College of Obstetrics and Gynaecology membership examination. This seventh edition contains 21 new chapters:.:.;. Anatomy of the Pelvis and Reproductive Tract.;. Placenta and Fetal Membranes.;. Antenatal Care.;. Anaesthesia and Analgesia.;. Recurrent Miscarriage.;. Ectopic Pregnancy.;. Trophoblastic Disease.;. Genetics and Prenatal Diagnosis.;. Drugs and Pregnancy.;. Obstetric Emergencies.;. Prolonged Pregnancy.;. Renal Disease.;. Termination of Pregnancy.;. Imaging in Gynaecology.;. PMS.;. Assisted Reproduction.;. Hysteroscopy and Laparoscopy.;. Sexual Dysfunction.;. Psychological Aspects of Pregnancy.;. Domestic Violence and Sexual Assault - now on MRCOG curriculum.;. Ethical Dilemmas. This seventh edition has been significantly updated with a wide range of internationally renowned contributors who are all experts in their field, bringing this book to the cutting edge of knowledge in obstetrics and gynaecology. "It was my favourite textbook when I was working for my examinations and I am still using it. I can recommend this edition to current trainees wholeheartedly. It is certainly worth buying."

With cardiovascular disease becoming the most common cause of death in people with diabetes, interest in the assessment and treatment of heart disease in these patients has been reawakened. This book examines developing topics from a largely cardiological perspective, covering both pharmacological and non-pharmacological interventions. . The DIGAMI study on the use of intravenous insulin infusion at the time of myocardial infarction (MI) has stimulated a large number of discussion papers on the best treatment of MI in the diabetic patient. The UKPDS has shown that treatment of Type 2 diabetes does not reduce cardiovascular end-points significantly, but that aggressive treatment of blood pressure can do so. In addition, sub-group analysis from several large cardiovascular trials has shown that treatment with statins, anti-platelet therapy, ACE inhibitors and other drugs will also reduce cardiovascular events in people with diabetes. . more...
