Based on the authors' own tutorials and dissection sessions during basic surgical training, this invaluable guide to surgical anatomy, fully illustrated throughout with clear line diagrams drawn exclusively for this book, will provide the surgical trainee with an invaluable guide to this important part of surgical training. Each chapter begins with a topic list designed to help the reader plan and coordinate a programme of study. Multiple-choice questions (MCQs) have been included throughout, and are designed to illustrate the main points of each topic. Each question is accompanied by full model answers to help students acquire and consolidate their anatomical knowledge. This book will prove invaluable for both medical and dental students, and also for surgical trainees taking the MCQ component of postgraduate surgical examinations.

"The Origins of Schizophrenia" synthesizes key findings on a devastating mental disorder that has been increasingly studied over the past decade. Advances in epidemiology, translational neuroscience technology, and molecular and statistical genetics have recast schizophrenia's neurobiological nature, identifying new putative environmental risk factors and candidate susceptibility genes. Providing the latest clinical and neuroscience research developments in a comprehensive volume, this collection by world-renowned investigators answers a pressing need for balanced, thorough information, while pointing to future directions in research and interdisciplinary collaboration.

The book, featuring a foreword by Robert Freedman, M.D., thoroughly examines these topics from the vantage points of epidemiologic, clinical, and basic neuroscience approaches, making it an essential resource for researchers in psychiatry, psychology, and neuroscience and for clinical mental health professionals.
