About the Medical Masterclass Series
Medical Masterclass is the Royal College of Physicians' revision series for the MRCP(UK), written by more than 75 authors and contributors under editor-in-chief Dr John Firth DM FRCP. The third edition is updated to reflect changes to the MRCP(UK) exam. Scientific Background to Medicine 2 is Book 2 of the 12-book series and the companion to Book 1.
What Book 2 Covers
- Clinical pharmacology: how drugs work, and how to use them safely
- Medical statistics: the numbers you need to read and interpret a study
- Epidemiology: how diseases are measured and studied in populations
- Clinical trials and how evidence is generated
- Evidence-based practice: applying research findings to real patients
Why These Topics Matter
Statistics and pharmacology questions are a reliable source of marks in the MRCP(UK), because the principles do not change much from year to year. They also matter long after the exam: every time you read a trial, change a prescription or explain a risk to a patient, you are using this knowledge.
