Review of Orthopaedics

Rating:
Summary: Excellent review text, poor proofreading by the editors
Review: Miller and co. have the unenviable task of compressing all of orthopaedics into a concise text for review. Remarkably so, they have improved on an already invaluable resource for residents and practicing orthopods alike. Given the number of syntax errors and content inconsistencies (see hand section) it appears that they may have rushed this edition to print, thus the "4 stars" ranking. This text still remains the standard to which other review books are compared.

Summary: A treasure to UP-DATE the general orthopaedics knowledge...
Review: There are some books, maybe very few, that make orthopaedics practice easier, this is one of them, you may read it every day or night when resting, while fishing or camping. One may take a subject: giant cell tumor, and in few moments remember the main points; or know new things in few minutes as when see the Chevron' s procedure for some hallux valgus. This is a current procedure in USA, but was not used in latinamerican countries since 25 years ago, and now it returns...and so on... if you have Campbell's or Chapman's then you need this book.

Rating:
Summary: No bones about it
Review: This book is so helpful, you hardly need a medical degree to practice. Patients can use this text and practically treat themselves!

Summary: A nice way to keep up-date(and up-grade) in the wide field..
Review: This is a very true and clear way to keep up-date in the wide field of the orthopaedics. Iam a Orthopaedist and these kind of books help me a lot, and make my textbooks alive (I mean Campbell's, Watson-Jones, Apley's , Mercer's and others). Is not a book for junior surgeons its more easier for senior orthopaedist.
