From the book reviews:
"This 164-page book deals with a narrow subject -- proximal humeral fractures --but treats it with a good amount of depth in terms of diagnosis, classification, and treatment. . This is a unique and helpful book for general orthopedic surgeons." (Benjamin A. Goldberg, Doody's Book Reviews, January, 2015)More details
