Product Description

Review
Thoroughly organised and very comprehensive basic surgical text with up to date information very succinctly presented.
"BMA Awards 2005"
This is the best surgical text covering surgery in general, that i have read in the last fifteen years...everything seems to have been produced to a high quality with careful attention to detail. It is certainly the most comprehensive book of its kind.
"Gastrointestinal Surgery Lecturer"

Product Description
First Prize (Surgery category), BMA Awards 2005
A comprehensive and attractively presented 4-colour textbook of surgery aimed primarily at medical students but also of use to junior doctors and surgical technicians. The book has two key features: firstly, it provides students with coverage of every aspect of surgery; secondly, it has been designed and written to be the 'surgical companion' to Kumar & Clark's Clinical Medicine. This new edition will also offer an online version to all purchasers of the book - the first surgical textbook in the UK to make an electronic version available.

5.0 out of 5 stars The kumar & clark of surgery, 2 Oct 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: Clinical Surgery (Paperback)
This book explains surgery from pre- operative care/ethics, signs and symptoms, theatre, post-op complications- basically all you need to know for surgical finals. It is a good source of information for those learning surgery for the first time and those learning it for the very last time. It even includes medical images for those that need reinforcement. I recommend it to medical undergraduates all over the UK.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent textbook!, 22 Jun 2004
By A Customer
This review is from: Clinical Surgery (Paperback)
Finally, the Kumar and Clark of surgery has arrived! This brand new textbook really does tell you everything you'll need to know about surgery as a medical student, and probably as a house officer as well.

The book is split into three sections:
Section 1 covers general issues like wound healing, pain control and surgical complications. There are also some really good chapters on basic practical procedures and emergencies.

The 2nd section takes a regional approach, covering just about every bit of the body you could take a knife to.

The 3rd section covers surgical complications, including ophthalmology, ENT and orthopaedics, which are not usually found in general surgical texts (so there's ££ to be saved!).

Each chapter starts with an overview of the relevant anatomy, physiology and investigations. There are loads of really good pictures, with summary boxes and tables all over the place to make the info easier to digest. The book is colour-coded throughout, and whilst there's quite a lot to take in, it's really readable and well presented, so it's not too daunting. I'd say it's less gory than quite a lot of surgical textbooks I've seen (whether that's a plus or minus is up to you!).

The only downside to the book is that there are none of those handy self-assessment questions for the night before that dreaded exam. The book may also be a bit too exhaustive for the average medical student, with a few random sections like 'how to design a surgical department' (but you can just skip over these).

Overall however, this is an excellent textbook, and I'm pretty sure that 'Henry & Thompson' will become for surgery what 'Kumar & Clark' has for medicine. They look quite nice next to each other on your bookshelf as well!

2.0 out of 5 stars Good in some places bad in others, 2 Nov 2003
By A Customer
This review is from: Clinical Surgery (Paperback)
For many topics I found this title lacking in detail. For example there were just a few lines on Whipple's and nothing on Hartmann's technique. As I had to use other sources to look things up I thought it a bad buy. I'm going to return my copy and get something else.
