Recensione:

From the reviews:

"During a period of numerous adventures into the textbook arena, this is different in focus and quality. Surgery: Basic Science and Clinical Evidence is reader friendly with excellent illustrations and 200 evidence-based tables. Both new and old topics are effectively covered to avoid redundancy." (Archives of Surgery)

"Essential Practice of Surgery, comprises an edited version of the fifty-seven most critical chapters from the first edition of the textbook. These chapters provide concise, abbreviated formats of the material for quick reference. The level of information contained should be useful for student surgery courses and for board review. ... Evidence-based tables are included in many chapters. ... Each chapter concludes with a reference list. Recommended for medical students, surgeons and hospital and medical libraries."
