Reviews / Votes
By far the best undergraduate introduction to Orthopaedics.Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery
Concise System of Orthopaedics and Fractures remains the best book for anyone seeking a brief, systematic, balanced account of this large subject ... This is the book to have.
The Bell
It would have been virtually impossible for a medical student at Guy's and St.Thomas' to complete the firm in Neurology, Orthopaedics and Rheumatology without more than a passing glance at Apley and Solomon's masterpiece.
