Kaufman, Mishra (both North Shore-Long Island Jewish Health System), L. G. Stead (emergency medicine, U. of Rochester, New York), and S. M. Stead (Mayo Clinic) present a revised study aid for medical students preparing for the surgery clerkship exam, also functioning as a guide in the clinical diagnosis and treatment of common surgical conditions. The content is based on the objectives for medical students as determined by the Association for Surgical Education and includes detailed advice from clerkship veterans. Incorporating advances and developments since publication of the 2003 first edition, the second edition has been completely revised and updated to reflect the core competencies.
