The AO Foundation's expanded second edition of AO Principles of Fracture Management has proved hugely successful and even better than the first edition...Overall, both volumes are well written and organized. A 3-page abbreviations section appears at the beginning of each volume and a beautiful glossary at the end. The index is easy to use, and the bold page references allow quick identification of relevant illustrations. Each chapter is concise and of appropriate length. The text is large and the font easy to read. A particularly unique feature is that important teaching points and pearls are separately highlighted in blue text and clearly identified with a bullet. Furthermore, each chapter contains an appropriate number of high-quality, detailed color illustrations, figures, or algorithms (2,100 total) that are easy to comprehend and that adequately complement the subject material. In summary, AO Principles of Fracture Management is a timely and dramatic upgrade from its predeces
