Reviews / Votes
"This is a good review for trainees and practicing orthopedic surgeons who have an interest in the shoulder. The authors are from all over the world, allowing for an international perspective. . This book broadly covers topics that are germane to both trainees and more experienced orthopedic shoulder surgeons. . reading this book during training would undoubtedly help residents in the shoulder portion of the exam as well as on clinical rotations."
