Having ordered and bought this book before its broader circulation (November 2006), I have had plenty of time to read it thoroughly and scrutinize its content. I was really impressed by:
-the comprehensive division of its structure,
-its easily accessible content (succinct and unvarying style of expression, well defined terms and step-by-step explanation of the procedures),
-its accurate and quite descriptive coloured figures and X-rays, as well as
-its applicability to a large number of surgical interventions in orthopaedics, apparently a product of a long-term experience on the relevant topics.
Moreover, I was delighted to learn that this book was recently counted among the Winners of The Society of Authors and The Royal Society of Medicine Book Awards 2007 (winner of the "£900 Prize for a New Edited Book retailing at less than £75")!
For all the above reasons, I warmly recommend this book to the trainees in orthopaedics!
