Speciality applications can be one of the most exciting, but yet nerve wracking times in a doctor's career. It is important that interview stations are approached in the correct manner, so that maximum marks can be scored in a timely fashion. Having recently been successful in the Obstetric and Gynaecology ST1 interviews, we gained an understanding of the common questions and scenarios and how best to approach these. This book aims to pass on the knowledge and skills that we have gained, to help other budding obstetric and gynaecology trainees secure their training posts and join us in this rewarding speciality. The profits from this book will be donated to the "Friends of Nepal Ambulance Service", a charity which provides ambulance services to transport sick and vulnerable patients in rural Nepal. Some of the feedback from our 2016 interview course and resources: "Having not previously done any interview practice since getting into medical school, I was nervous (and clueless) about what to expect for my O&G ST1 interview. However, the resources offered on www.obsandgynae.net were the most comprehensive and useful resource I could've used. It was absolutely fantastic and I could not recommend it enough to prospective applicants for O&G interviews. The scenarios were all extremely realistic and similar to what comes up in the real interviews, and having mock mark schemes really helps when practising with friends." - Priya Paul obtained a training post in Oxford Deanery. "The course was exceptionally well run and organised. The speakers had genuine experience of the interview process and made a real effort to impart all the relevant information. I came away much more confident that I knew what interview preparation would be helpful and it really helped me to focus my time. I also met some people at the course who were applying to the same deanery and we were able to swap numbers and do interview practice together after the course. I would 100% recommend this course: well organised, well run, excellent quality teaching, amazing value for money and knowing that it was non-profit and going to charity is a massive bonus. So thankful to Neha for organising this and for all the volunteers giving up their weekend to help the next year of potential trainees. I was ranked highly in London and think a lot of that is down to this course and being able to prepare systematically. Thank you!" - Rachel Roberts obtained a training post in London Deanery. "Very thorough sessions and great advice, gave me the confidence to perform well in my interview!" - Thivya Sritharan obtained a training post in East Midlands Deanery. "Fantastic course! The course material contained many different interview scenarios, and we were able to take this material home with us, which was really useful and very similar to the real interview." - Simrit Nijjar obtained a training post in London Deanery. "Really useful information & good opportunity to practise interview skills and gain excellent formative feedback. Attending the course was definitely instrumental to me obtaining a training post! The course material was extremely useful with lots of good advice to aid preparation." - Carolann Waddell obtained a training post in Scotland Deanery. "The course was incredibly useful, very practical and the fact that all profits went to charity made it even better!" - Shila Tursini obtained a training post in East of England Deanery.

Simulation is becoming an integral part of medical education and has already a well-established role within anaesthesia training, with many examination questions already modelled on simulation scenarios. The clinical diversity and multidisciplinary nature of an obstetric team creates the ideal environment for simulation training. It enables the team to develop their knowledge of clinical emergencies whilst becoming more aware of the importance of human factors. This book is a practical guide to inspire clinical leads to establish simulation within their delivery suite. The book comprises an extensive obstetric scenario library, with each scenario broken down into learning outcomes, a list of staff and equipment needed, specific stages mapped to learning outcomes with appropriate results/investigations and a checklist of ideal actions to enable the post-scenario debrief. Written by consultant obstetric anaesthetists, this book will appeal to medical practitioners interested in facilitating obstetric simulation.

In 1890, Professor Arthur Willis Goodspeed, a professor of physics at Pennsylvania USA was working with an English born photographer, William N Jennings, when they accidentally produced a Röntgen Ray picture. Unfortunately, the significance of their findings were overlooked, and the formal discovery of X-rays was credited to Wilhelm Roentgen in 1895. The discovery has since transformed the practice of medicine, and over the course of the past 130 years, the development of new radiological techniques has continued to grow. The impact has been seen in virtually every hospital in the world, from the routine use of ultrasound for pregnancy scans, through to the diagnosis of complex medical issues such as brain tumours. More subtly, X-rays were also used in the discovery of DNA and in military combat, and their social influence through popular culture can be seen in cartoons, books, movies and art. Written by two radiologists who have a passion for the history of their field, The History of Radiology is a beautifully illustrated review of the remarkable developments within radiology and the scientists and pioneers who were involved. This engaging and authoritative history will appeal to a wide audience including medical students studying for the Diploma in the History of Medicine of the Society of Apothecaries (DHMSA), doctors, medical physicists, medical historians and radiographers.
