British Medical Journal (Internet): "The material [in this book] is very up-to-date and presented in a logical and clear manner. As in earlier editions, the book is multiauthored; nevertheless, the quality of writing remains consistently good. I thought the artwork in the third edition was excellent, but the editors have outdone themselves with truly superb multicolored diagrams and cartoons in this latest edition....Overall, the book remains an outstanding introductory and review text." |
