Reviews

From the book reviews: As this book could well be the first book focused on robotic surgery for many of its readers, the introductory chapters do a good job of spelling out the fundamentals. The description and illustrations of the equipment and the principles behind their implementation is authoritative and comprehensive and forms most of the 'general interest' part of the book. Indeed, most of this would be accessible (and engrossing) to the informed non-medical reader as well. (Sushil Dawka, Archives of Medical and Biomedical Research, iambr.info, Vol. 1 (3), 2014)
