Towards the Prevention of Cancer

چکیده
This textbook, published in 2008, gives advice to Final Year students applying for the National Foundation Training Programme for F1 and F2 doctors. The problems with this application process over the past several years are well known to senior students, junior doctors, programme directors, postgraduate Deans, universities, the public and indeed politicians. This book is timely and is an effort to help students applying for their F1 and F2 positions. The difficulty with this book is that it will become rapidly out of date in such a changing field, but nonetheless it does give basic groundwork and advice on the completion of the application form.
