A wealth of information is presented in a concise, didactic format, focusing on those facts that are generally considered to be neither contentious nor speculative. The fifth edition has been substantially updated to reflect the current understanding of the basic sciences underpinning the practice of obstetrics and gynaecology. This book will also be of value to professionals wishing to refresh their basic scientific knowledge. Cell Biology, Embryology and the Placenta Anatomy General Physiology and biochemistry Endocrinology Pathology Microbiology Pharmacology Tim Chard is Professor of Obstetrics and Gynaecology at St Bartholomew's Hospital in London.

  • "In the three years since the publication of the first edition this book has been very well received by those for whom it was intended-candidates for primary examinations in Obstetrics and Gynaecology. In consequence, we make no excuse for repeating the formula of addressing only those facts which are neither speculative nor contentious. An attempt to widen this brief would multiply the length of the book by three or four times and would place it in an identical category with several much larger texts which we recommend at the end of each chapter to those seeking a deeper understanding of any particular subject. As the underlying philosophy remains the same, the main changes in the second edition are the addition of new material and revision of existing material. New material includes subjects in which interest has expanded greatly in recent years (e.g. AIDS) and topics which were inadvertently overlooked before (e.g. congenital adrenal hyperplasia). Revision of existing material has been extensive, with many detailed changes aimed at expanding the factual base while retaining or improving the clarity of explanation. Finally, and probably most important, many of the changes are those which have been suggested by readers and reviewers of the first edition: this feedback has been invaluable to the authors and we now hope will be equally valuable to readers of the new edition."
  • "This new, third edition of Basic Sciences for Obstetrics and Gynaecology maintains the successful didactic formula of the previous two editions. The main changes are the addition of new material and revision of existing material. Most importantly, many of the changes stem from readers' suggestions and comments; this feedback ensures the practicality and relevance of the text. As a brief, straightforward examination review, the text by Chard and Lilford should be the first choice of MRCOG candidates in the United Kingdom and gynecologists-in-training in all other countries."
  • "Basic Sciences for Obstetrics and Gynaecology - MCQs presents sample multiple choice questions and answers dealing with the basic sciences in obstetrics and gynaecology. The aim of the volume is to give those candidates studying for examinations such as the MRCOG Part 1 a flavour of the examination itself. -- book cover."
  • "This text has become a standard revision aid for students preparing for examinations in obstetrics and gynaecology, particularly those candidates for the MRCOG Part I. The authors present a wealth of information in a concise, didactic format, focussing on those facts that are generally considered non-contentious. The fourth edition includes both new and revised material, reflecting current understanding of the basic sciences underpinning the practice of obstetrics and gynaecology. This book will be of value to the student and also those professionals wishing to refresh their basic scientific knowledge."
