Integrated Medical Sciences: The Essentials is a concise,
accessible, problem-based approach to the subject using case
scenarios to facilitate students taking their pre-clinical or basic
sciences examinations.Using a family of characters in each case
scenario, the aim of the text is to reflect the current changes in
medical and biomedical science curriculum that is increasingly
moving towards a more integrated approach through problem-based
learning. The characters, all members of an extended family, will
appear in several scenarios and the student will become familiar
with their personalities and their disease processes. Each case
study will therefore cover the relevant anatomy, physiology,
pathology, pharmacology, microbiology, immunology and biochemistry
and enable the reader to grasp the key concepts of basic medical
sciences in an integrated fashion.

nursing degree students and allied health students taking courses
in dentistry, physiotherapy and pharmacy. In addition, the book
