About this book

Crash Course – your effective everyday study companion PLUS the perfect antidote for exam stress! Save time and be assured you have all the core information you need in one place to excel on your course and achieve exam success.

A winning formula now for over 15 years, each volume has been fine-tuned and fully updated, with an improved layout tailored to make your life easier.

The importance of ethics and sociology as applied cannot be underestimated, within both the medical curriculum and everyday modern clinical practice.
