Prescribing Skills Workbook is the ideal way for students and junior doctors to practice prescribing. The book features 45 exercises, each one carefully chosen to test the reader's grasp of a key principle, such as managing a patient on warfarin. Each exercise begins with a short clinical scenario; next, the reader is invited to fill in a realistic, life-size chart in response; an answer section follows containing the correctly completed chart, together with a summary of the main clinical and educational aspects of the exercise.
