Golden Notes in Surgery is only guides the medical students in learning the concepts of Surgery, as a boost to their preparation for National Exit Examination (NEXT)/final examination in Surgery. It consists of the 30 broad competencies as mandated by the NMC in the CBME syllabus. Briefly outlined are the topics under surgical specialties and subjects like surgical ethics, audit, legal aspects of surgery and hospital waste management, the book contains 191 tables for easy reference and about 125 figures which are hand-drawn descriptive diagrams, clinical and operative photographs. I have also given 620 typical questions (long and short answer type) against respective topics for benefit of students.
