Pre-publication quotes "I do not think it is an understatement to say that it is a revolutionary book. It is obviously written with integrated courses very much in mind and manages to integrate the basic sciences with clinical information very well...Maybe above all things, this is a very practically orientated book and really attempts to mould the medical student in to a very good house officer."SHO, Leeds

Review :
"I suspect that it will become a standard text for medical students and junior doctors alike" British Journal of Surgery 1997"A comprehensive surgical textbook, with lots of colour photos and diagrams, nicely laid out with excellent at a glance boxes." Sphincter, Liverpool Medical School Gazette"This textbook is well written, logical and ordered, but most of all at GBP30 is a bargain especially as this text will last the student for many years, well beyond their housejobs and be of benefit in manging patients on the wards... (it) should be considered as one of the key undergraduate surgical texts." Southampton Health Journal 1997"This book is quite simply a pleasure to own" St. Thomas' Gazette 1996 Pre-publication quotes ' I do not think it is an understatement to say that it is a revolutionary book. It is obviously written with integrated courses very much in mind and manages to integrate the basic sciences with clinical information very well...Maybe above all things, this is a very practically orientated book and really attempts to mould the medical student in to a very good house officer.' SHO, Leeds. ' Well written, well presented and laid out, plenty of pictures. I actually looked forward to reading it!'House Officer, Cambridge 'I think Clinical Surgery is a fantastic book! It's packed full of features to make it easier to learn from. The use of tables and diagrams compliments the extremely well-written text, making for a thorough, friendly guide to clinical surgery. The variety of delivery methods makes the book suitable as a quick reference, a revision aid or as a detailed textbook, and it fulfils all three roles excellently'5th Year, Aberdeen 'I think it is a well-balanced book which would appeal to both clinical medical students and junior doctors. It manages to span the spectrum of surgical knowledge required both pre- and post-graduation. I like the broad range of topics covered.5th Year, Nottingham 'It is great. Informative, broad yet detailed and with great pictures...what more could a young surgeon want.'House Officer Oxford '
