Reviews
This book presents an important and timely subject and collects a wide range of knowledge derived from the contributors' vast experience. It is the first to integrate medicine and engineering exceptionally well. It is a great text for graduate-level students, researchers, and doctors specializing in microsurgery. -Prof. Tzyh Jong Tarn - Washington University in St. Louis, USA
