The Ascrs Textbook Of Colon And Rectal Surgery

The ASCRS Textbook of Colorectal Surgery is the first official textbook of the American Society of Colon and Rectal Surgeons, adhering to the principals of evidence-based practice and utilizing ASCRS practice parameters. Each chapter correlates with the core curriculum developed by the Program Director's Association in Colorectal Surgery. In addition, a ground-breaking online component is updated periodically with new information.

From the reviews:

"The goals of this textbook ... were to provide state-of-the-art information on colon and rectal surgery for residents in training and for fully trained surgeons seeking recertification. Dr. Fleshman and his fellow editors should be congratulated for achieving these goals ... . In summary, this book represents a succinct yet comprehensive and up-to-date review of colon and rectal surgery. It is already proving popular with our own trainees, and I suspect it will become required reading on both sides of the Atlantic." (John Hartley, Diseases of the Colon and Rectum, Vol. 51, 2008)
