Summary: Great Book! Excellent Information
Review: I recently bought this book and I can honestly say that if there is anyone out there that is in the process of having an ACL Reconstruction, BUY THIS BOOK! This year I will be 5 yrs. post-op from an ACL reconstruction, and I find this book a great source of information. This will answer all your questions before and after your surgery.

Summary: what the cost of a book -vs- surgery of your knee worth?
Review: Well, I wouldn't say it answers all my questions, but it definitely gave me a list to discuss with my potential knee docs. This is just the first step in my education process.Gives some personal stories of other people which is very good. I highly recommend the book as it is a small price to pay for education, considering you will be paying alot for the surgery. One personal recommendation is call all the physical therapist in your area for their recommendation of knee docs. Hey, the pt's are the ones that get to see the results of the docs. Get the best! I found the doc for the 49ers, the doc that use to do the Warriors and the doc for the Oakland A's. It is interesting that each does a different technique for my ACL. You want Petalla tendon, Cadavor, or hamstring technique? This book will give you the different ways they are done. Also check out Bob's Bum Knee web site. Man there are a lot of bad knees out there. Get it done to stabilize your knee is my vote. My friend didn't and had to get hip replacement 25 yrs later due to ever so slight compensation of his knee. Of course ever situation is unique. Good luck.
