“Although this book is intended for surgical residents (and some may find it useful), it is most appropriate for third- and fourth-year medical students (such as those doing sub-internships). It would be a valuable addition to other books that are standard for this demographic (e.g., Surgical Recall, 6th edition, Blackbourne (Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, 2012).” (Doody’s, 21 March 2014)
“Surgery at a Glance deserves ongoing recommendation as it appears in an updated new fifth edition to provide students with a summary of a comprehensive lecture course in surgery. It’s arranged in an ‘at a glance’ format, which provides quick visuals and easy keys to understanding, with key facts supplementing discussions of major surgical conditions. New chapters on Orthopaedics, updates on post-surgery management, and a website packed with supportive resources to the text makes for a volume filled with important insights any student will find important.” (Midwest Book Review, 1 December 2013)
The marketleading at a Glance series is used world-wide by medical students, residents, junior doctors and health professionals for its concise and clear approch and superb illustrations.
Each topic is presented in a double-page spread with clear, easy-to-follow diagrams, supported by succinct explanatory text.
Covering the whole medical curriculum, these introductory texts are ideal for teaching, learning and exam preparation, and are useful throughout medical school and beyond.
