5Preface
The constant demand for a book which caters to the need of students which is exam-oriented, pre-empted me to write this book. Although this book cannot be compared to standard books, an attempt has been made to make the answers precise and fetch more marks to the students. After reading this book, if students get more marks, then the purpose of the book is deemed to be achieved.
I hope this book will benefit the students of not only Medicine but also Pharmacy, Nursing, Physiotherapy and allied health specialties.
I humbly appreciate the contribution of Shri Jitendar P Vij, Chairman and Managing Director, Jaypee Brothers Medical Publishers and all the staff who directly or indirectly have been a part in the publishing of the book.
