We aim at testing knowledge acquisition and application, albeit data analysis is tested in fewer instances. The questions are presented in Calibri (body) theme font to provide the best readability. The questions` stems are short, bold, and typed in size 14 font. Each question has four options. It is hard for a test taker who doesn’t know the answer to guesstimate. We have used plausible distractors and avoided double negatives. Furthermore, we have used the finished and unfinished statement styles and avoided complex structures of questions. We have implemented the (how common is ...) and (what is the likelihood that ...) styles of questions as we believe that the reader`s intuition and clinical sense last longer, in mind, than figures do.

The aim of this book is to provide a selection of representative MCQs together with a detailed explanation of each answer covering the topic in depth. Each chapter has been written by experienced Urological surgeons who have already been successful in passing the examination. The scope of this book will be an invaluable addition to individuals sitting the FEBU and similar exams in the USA, Australia and Asian countries. Established consultants may also find the text useful as a ‘refresher’ in areas outside their subspecialist interest.

Drs. Lindsay and Lexie Kite know firsthand how hard filtering out media influence is when it comes to self-image. Both struggled as young women to overcome the expectations of body size and shape, but were able to learn to love, appreciate, and reclaim their own bodies, eventually earning their PhDs in body image resilience. The twin sisters founded the nonprofit Beauty Redefined and have made it their mission to help other women see themselves without societal expectations distorting their self-perception. More than a Body is a self-help book focused on going beyond body positivity, showing how a mindset focused on appearance sets women up for insecurities and self-judgement. In this book, they offer an action plan for readers to combat that mindset, and instead learn how the body can be "an instrument, not an ornament," with practical, actionable steps to take when consuming media, exercising, practicing self-reflection and self-compassion, and finding a purpose in life.
