Almost all the chapters have been thoroughly revised and updated. This book was originally brought out to guide the new entrants to the surgical ward to answer the vexed question ‘How to examine this case and come to a diagnosis?’. This original theme of the book has been maintained and adequate emphasis has been laid not only on ‘what to do’ but also on ‘how to do’ the various examinations to arrive at the provisional clinical diagnosis. More methods of examinations have been included in this edition with more illustrations to make the subject more understandable. This manual has so far enjoyed zenith of popularity in Indian subcontinent and even abroad.
