First Handbook of Medical Instruments

Book excerpt: This new B.I. edition, two-fifths longer than its predecessor, continues to be a valued companion for the MBBS examinees, students in their clinical year and advanced nursing trainees. " Expanded for the first time with new chapters dealing with instruments used in Otolaryngology and Ophthalmology " Reflects changes taking place in contemporary medicine as additional material, while retaining all the features which have established a well earned reputation for the text. " Simple thumb-nail sketches of instruments, many of which have been redrawn and many added, improved legibility by the use of a different and slightly larger type-face and text description mostly in an interrogative form, are presented.
