General Surgery: Principles and International Practice is a concise state-of-the-art volume with evolutionary principles in the management of diseases common to general surgeons.The text is structured so as to document basic surgical tenets required for the management of various surgical diseases in adults and children. Currently, all the available textbooks are not concisely formulated and none are as completely organized with advanced approaches.
This book will allow the reader to succinctly and rapidly review the subject matter in a three-to-five page summary with contemporary bibliography in each chapter and a "Pearls and Pitfalls" section summarizing the `impact’, concerns and outcomes of surgical management.
This well-organized tome enables practicing physician-surgeon and student immediate access to material addressing highly specific general surgery topics.
