This is the first in a series of three books covering the range of knowledge required to pass the MRCP (Membership of the Royal College of Physicians). The exam is divided into two parts and the MRCP Part 1 represents an assessment of general medical knowledge. This book contains 250 questions and expanded answers, and the multiple-choice question format is the same one used in the actual exam. The three books can be purchased separately or as a set (0-443-04311-6). They are all written by junior doctors who particpate actively in teaching others who are taking these examinations.
