This book covers all of the key issues concerning the effective teaching in medical, dental and veterinary education. It includes contributions from a wide range of experts in the field, with a broad and international perspective. It includes material on teaching and the support of learning, effectively using learning materials and IT in clinical education, assessment, developing effective learning environments, developing reflective practice, and personal development.

This book is based on the 22nd edition of Bailey & Love's Short Practice of Surgery (published in 1995) and repeats the format of previous successful editions. As well as providing a rich source of MCQs for examination practice, the book can be used as a companion to the main text to reinforce and clarify understanding of all areas of surgery; the questions have been rearranged specifically to facilitate this. The book provides a stimulus to both undergraduate and postgraduate students of surgery to broaden their understanding of the subject by testing factual knowledge and measuring progress against a standard set of questions.
