Reviews
From the reviews: <p> The goals of this textbook a ] were to provide state-of-the-art information on colon and rectal surgery for residents in training and for fully trained surgeons seeking recertification. Dr. Fleshman and his fellow editors should be congratulated for achieving these goals a ] . In summary, this book represents a succinct yet comprehensive and up-to-date review of colon and rectal surgery. It is already proving popular with our own trainees, and I suspect it will become required reading on both sides of the Atlantic. (John Hartley, Diseases of the Colon and Rectum, Vol. 51, 2008)
