Reviews

<p>. ..In this book, the authors make an eloquent plea for extensive use of external fixator technology to avoid secondary injury to extremities when fractures include significant soft tissue injury. While the damage control specialist will treasure this book for the quality of illustrations alone, the orthopedist treating war or terrorism injuries may benefit from the perspectives presented here.
