Editorial Reviews

Review

"This is an outstanding book and has remained outstanding throughout its eight editions. The drawings are excellent, have clearly passed the test of time, and represent the way most surgeons think about a procedure. The descriptions are well written and particularly helpful, especially before undertaking a procedure. It is a large book and is very useful as an atlas for refreshing or learning the steps of a particular procedure. I would recommend it highly to practicing surgeons. 4 Stars!"--Doody's Review Service Doody's 20030320 --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
