This 2nd edition, in line with the latest GMC Good Medical Practice 2013 Guidelines, contains a wide range of SJT scenarios to ensure that all the core Foundation Programme competencies are comprehensively covered. The SJTs contained in this book have been through a rigorous appraisal process that brought together the experiences of over 50 doctors from varying levels and specialities, including multiple Foundation Training Programme Directors. This ensured that the scenarios, and their respective responses, were valid and relevant to both the SJT exam, and the Foundation Programme curriculum. The book also involved professionals with backgrounds inclusive of medical law, medical ethics, psychology and medical education, all of whom helped in sewing together realistic and challenging scenarios with valuable learning points. The questions in this book were piloted amongst junior doctors to further help validate the consistency of the responses. The explanations provided in this book are supported by numerous references to the GMC guidelines, in order to maximise their reliability, and provide a clear rationale for the correct answers. A number of the doctors who participated in the design of this book had firsthand experience of the National SJT Pilot Exam, and thus provided a unique insight into question format, style and design. This book not only offers valuable exam practice, but also equips the reader with the skills, aptitude and knowledge base to effectively cope with complex scenarios as they move on to their working life.

Foundation offers something completely different for novices and athletes alike: a simple program with powerful and proven results that will remedy bad posture, alleviate back pain, and help readers break through fitness challenges and plateaus. Dr. Eric Goodman, a brilliant and dynamic young chiropractor, teams up with Peter Park, one of the top trainers in the United States, to radically redefine the core--shifting the focus from the front of the body to the back. Their groundbreaking approach works to strengthen the lower back and the full posterior chain and correct poor movement patterns by addressing mechanical imbalances and weaknesses. Foundation training involves simple movement patterns and is equipment free, creating maximum power, flexibility, and endurance. Word-of-mouth enthusiasm has inspired both Hollywood luminaries and world-class athletes to make Foundation training the core of their fitness programs. Eric and Peter's client list has grown exponentially to include Lance Armstrong, NBA star Derek Fisher, world-champion surfer Kelly Slater, and actor Matthew McConaughey.
