Review:
Review from previous edition: "In short it's a little surgical gem."
--Glasgow University Medical Journal
"[It] perfectly summarises surgery in all its glory... a concise and appropriate text for students and doctors alike... the 'Practical Hints and Procedures' is pure genius... I highly recommend this handbook for anyone embarking on a surgical rotation."
--GKT Surgical Society Website June 2003
"This book... is destined to enter the hearts, mind and pockets of medical students, housemen, junior surgical trainees and a myriad of other healthcare professionals... forms part of the essential kit for anyone who employs the art and science of surgery to improve the quality of life of
their patients."
--GKT Surgical Society Website June 2003
`It goes the extra mile to provide enough up-to-date information to satisfy even the most hair-splitting consultant. I found it an indispensable assistant on the wards.'
