Summary:

"This revision guide is an invaluable resource for psychiatric trainees preparing for exams. With 55 case vignettes and over 200 topical multiple-choice questions (MCQs), the content covers a broad spectrum of relevant psychiatric disorders, including schizophrenia, anorexia nervosa, addiction, and gender dysphoria. Case vignettes provide a focused discussion of each disorder, while strategically placed topical MCQs consolidate learning and highlight concepts across disorders. Recurring features are included at the end of each chapter, including 'Exam Essentials,' which highlight the most crucial information students should remember, 'Clinical Pearls', which provide tips for practical application, and the 'Diving Deep' section allows interested students to explore specific concepts further. An engaging and comprehensive revision resource, this will be a go-to resource for MRCPsych candidates and those taking specialist examinations"-- Cambridge University Press.
