A unique contribution to the field...The long-awaited second edition of the Oxford Textbook of Surgery is a unique contribution to the field. It not only provides a comprehensive and authoritative reference on all aspects of general surgery, but also offers substantial sections on subspecialties such as orthopedics, paediatric surgery, neurosurgery, and cardiac surgery. It has been designed and written by an international faculty, for specialist and trainee surgeons working in any part of the world. Key sections, written by world authorities, include those on endoscopic surgery, surgical nutrition, response to injury, the design and interpretation of clinical trials, causes of cancer, vascular surgery, and the selection of surgical trainees. What's new? For this new edition there are major new sections on, for example, molecular biology and evidence-based approaches to surgical decisions. Response to injury, Trauma and shock, Minimally invasive surgery and Surgical nutrition are covered in much greater detail. Almost all the other sections have been rewritten by new contributors or heavily revised to reflect new developments and emphases in the field, and data from randomized trials. Comprehensive, international, humane. The Oxford Textbooks have found their way into clinics, libraries, and hospital departments the world over. They have earned praise for their careful integration of basic science and the best of clinical practice, their international focus, and not least their exhaustive coverage. Like our other Oxford Textbooks, this new edition of the Oxford Textbook of Surgery emphasizes a humane approach, providing chapters on counselling bereaved relatives, pain relief, and the care of the dying. The full-colour design of the Textbook has been thoroughly updated and enhanced and the Textbook should be an essential component of and adornment to the bookshelves of all surgeons.
