This advanced text presents a unique and thoughtful approach to reconstruction of soft tissue wounds of the head and neck...I like this book and have shared it with dermatology residents as a teaching tool on how one can approach reconstructing wounds. The text is straightforward, clearly written, concise, and not burdened with the extraneous information that is commonly found in many books (equipment, perioperative instructions, consents, anatomy, etc.). 3 Stars. --Doody's Review Service Doody's 20070622 Outstanding book, includes a great number of color photographs with well written text. Well organized. Practical and useful as both an instruction manual and reference. --DermReview.com DermReview.com 20070110
