"A remarkably extensive overview of many reconstructive topics...artwork is consistently excellent throughout...very practical...particularly useful for the younger surgeon...also an excellent reference book for the more experienced facial reconstructive surgeon." --Head & Neck_x000D__x000D_"A worthy contribution to the literature...very helpful...easy to read and understand...its numerous descriptions and pictures are useful for practitioners..." --Doody's Review Journal_x000D__x000D_"The secret to producing a useful book of surgical procedures is the diagrammatic representation of each method and this book doesn't disappoint. ... It is, however, ideal for the trainee and young consultant still experimenting with various methods and ideas as it is a basic cookbook that covers a multitude of methods." --The Journal of Laryngology and Otology, 11/02 --This text refers to the Kindle Edition edition.
