A GUIDE TO THE STUDY OF MEDICINE. By A. Miles.
(Oliver and Boyd. 3s.) A GUIDE TO THE STUDY OF MEDICINE. By A. Miles. (Oliver and Boyd. 3s.) THE choice of a profession, seldom quite an easy problem, is more difficult than ever in the present stress of economic
conditions, and the young man stands more in need of certitude about MS* decision than before. This involves a knowledge of.the requisite training as well as a realization of the demands the profession will make later, and that is not always easy to get. In this little brochure, however, Mr. Miles, the well. known surgeon, has gone a long way towards assisting the would-be doctor ; he briefly describes the intimate relations of the various subjects embraced by the medical curriculum, and the right attitude of the student towards its study. The aim is primarily to present the coherency of the course to the more junior students, who rarely realize how interdependent the various subjects arc ; but many others will be interested to read this essay, for it is a real contribution to education.
