Reviews
"""This is an outstanding treatise that deserves to be in every orthopedic surgical library. Its most outstanding feature is that the chapters have been peer-reviewed. Chapters were reviewed by an associate and a senior editor, and most were returned to the author(s) for revision before submission to the publisher. For such a huge book, it doesn't get any better than that. This is a significant update of the premier publication of this kind in the field."" ----------------------------------------------------------- Weighted Numerical Score: 96 - 4 Stars! - Doody Enterprises, Inc.
