About this title

Review

"This is one of those rare books that, despite the fact that there are four shoulder books already on your shelf, is worth adding. I can't imagine a finer collection of contributing authors on the topic of shoulder surgery."
"Masterful! I have always loved this series, as I feel it lets me learn pearls from the best practitioners in the world. This entry on the shoulder is no different. Ed Craig has done a superb job of gathering the best in the world to keep us up to date. It is a great book and a worthy edition to the hospital, academic, and personal library. I may have to get an extra copy for the residents because they surely aren't going to get mine!"
