"This is the perfect book for beginning surgeons. It contains the clearest explanations that I have encountered on basic surgical techniques, setting up a clinical surgical suite, how to choose and use the appropriate surgical instruments correctly ... an excellent book."-Patricia Wong, MD in Doody's Review Service
