Psychiatry: 600 Multiple Choice Questions With Referenced Explanatory Answers (Medical Examination Review, Vol 7)

This Eighth Edition of "Psychiatry" has been substantially revised and updated to keep in step with current trends in medical education and the continuing expansion of scientific knowledge. It is designed to help prepare for course examinations, National Boards Part II, the Federation Licensing Examination (FLEX), and examinations for foreign medical graduates. The range of subjects included in this volume is based on the content outline of the National Board of Medical Examiners, which develops the question pool for the tests mentioned above, and reflects the scope and depth of what is taught in medical schools today. The questions themselves are organized in broad categories to give you a representative sampling of the material covered in course work, while helping you define the general areas to which you need to devote attention. For your convenience in selective study, the answers (with commentary and references) follow each section of questions. [From the Preface]
