Reviews

The editors have done an admirable job of collecting leading educators and clinicians to author each chapter, bringing together a broad collective of experience for readers to learn from. ... Overall, this is a wonderful reference on the singular topic of carpal tunnel syndrome and related median neuropathies. If you care for patients with carpal tunnel disease, you need look no further than this book to consider yourself to be up on the state of the art in the field. (Mark R. Hutchinson, Doody's Book Reviews, October, 2017)
