Review

The Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery (American) , 01-SEP-01, Volume 83, Issue 9, Larry S. Matthews, MD, University of Michigan Hospitals, Ann Arbor, MI -- "This outstanding, up-to-date work will be a valuable addition to the libraries of orthopaedic residents, who can rely on it as a foundation for their study. It will also be an excellent reference for the general orthopaedic surgeon who wants a current, comprehensive source of orthopaedic knowledge."-The Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery (American) Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA), 19-SEP-01, Irwin M. Siegel, MD, Rush-Presbyterian St. Luke's Medical Center, Chicago, IL -- "Chapman has provided us with a monumental state-of-the-art text, which should appeal to a wide readership, including general orthopaedic practitioners, subspecialists in orthopaedic surgery, residents, and students."-JAMA The Journal of Orthopaedic Medicine, Volume 23, Issue 2, William R.C. Peskett, FRCS, Guy's and St. Thomas' Hospitals, London -- "...helpful as a reference text to practicing Orthopaedic surgeons wanting to refresh their memory on operative detail for any 'standard' up-to-date orthopaedic procedure...I think they are the clearest operating instructions I have read...Together they [the volumes and the CD-ROM] constitute a valuable resource that would, I believe, enrich any departmental library."-The Journal of Orthopaedic Medicine
