Reviews for Dr Podcast Scripts for the Final FRCA

'This book is an extremely valuable resource for anyone preparing for the Final FRCA, and indeed anyone seeking a refresher in clinical anaesthesia. It covers the breadth of subjects required by the exam with the topics discussed in sufficient detail to give the reader a sound understanding. The question-and-answer format is very engaging and easy to follow. I particularly appreciate the sections in italics where the authors speak to the reader giving context, advice or reminders to guide exam technique and provide support. As a College Tutor, I am grateful to the excellent team of editors and authors for preparing such a superb second edition and I'm looking forward to using it to help the resident doctors I work with to prepare for the Final FRCA and to refresh my own knowledge too.' Emma Plunkett, Consultant Anaesthetist, Birmingham Women's Hospital and University Hospitals Birmingham
