Medical education has changed dramatically over the past decade. Medical students and residents first look to the Internet for information. Such resources as PubMed and the Cochran Database have become invaluable
references. For those individuals being initiated into the field of Obstetrics and Gynecology, the problem is not inadequate information resources but information overload. In his book OB/GYN Mentor, Dr. Michael D. Benson
has provided the “nuggets” necessary for medical students and residents to gain an important overview of the specialty.
Each chapter is written in outline form. This lends itself to reading small sections at a time during a busy schedule. Each chapter also contains a feature titled “Mentor Tips,” which is useful for the leader of the team to engage the learner in group discussions to highlight key clinical issues. The reader is given authoritative selected references for supplementation. Finally, there are self-test questions to allow the readers to assess whether they have assimilated the necessary knowledge. Overall, the book is easy to read and provides guidance to help overcome the conundrum of information overload.
