Robert Ficalora has applied his extensive expertise in graduate medical education, board preparation and adult learning with the talent and clinical expertise of many Mayo physicians to produce a focused, organized, well-rounded board preparation book the goals parallel the structure of the ABIM certification exam. The material is presented in a focused manner for the 21st century learner, with key points highlighted and many figures, tables, and diagrams. This is not only a content review for any individual preparing as a first time test taker or an MOC exam taker; it is a true guide for the individual, with great tips and words of wisdom. I encourage my own residents to use it now and will use myself again in 5 more years!
