Hat's off to Dr Peter Kertes and Dr T Mark Johnson for bringing together a great group of authors and then editing this amazing and unique resource that should be a part of every resident and staff ophthalmologist's library. I freely state my bias having recently co-authored a paper with Dr Peter Kertes targeted to ophthalmic para professionals soon to be published in Eye Care Review titled "The Medical Managements of Wet Age Related Macular Degeneration, A Special Review for Ophthalmic Para Professionals" , and my connection to Dr Emily Chew, a fellow Torontonian and author of the foward to this ophthalmic staple. I have also recommended the chapter by Dr Sanjay Sharma to undergraduate summer research students just being introduced to medcial study design and outcome measures. For my peers, this book should be of interest to those who wish to come to a better understanding of how treatment modalities are selected on a case by case basis, as every ground breaking study is highlighted and explained in language that will be uderstood, even for their level. I have come to a better understanding of the value of learning through reading and writing from Peter Kertes, a natural born writer being the brother of Joseph Kertes whose newest work of fiction "Gratitude" (Penguin Group Canada) has recently been published.
