Why another exam-related FRCS (Tr & Orth) book? Don’t we cover paediatrics in the chapters of the other Postgraduate Orthopaedics books?
We always felt the need for a more definitive guide to the paediatric component of the FRCS exam.
We were never entirely happy that the FRCS (Tr & Orth) paediatric syllabus was particularly well covered or developed in a number of orthopaedic books. Most lacked the specific subject focus that candidates needed to pass the FRCS (Tr & Orth) exam.
General orthopaedic books tended to scratch the surface of a difficult area of orthopaedics that needs to be learnt well for the exam. Specialized books on paediatrics meant you could lose all focus of the subject’s relevance and end up not extracting the relevant or specific detail required to pass the exam. Moreover, you could find yourself spending a lot of unnecessary time and effort drowning in these specialized textbooks and not have enough time left to read the basic science, trauma or hands sections.
