Editorial Reviews

Product Description
The result of ten years' detailed research, this is a complete and detailed system of trauma methods which the non-specialist general duty doctor can use to treat all human injuries that might benefit from his care. It is designed mainly for medical schools and hospitals in the developing world, but any doctor who is not a trauma specialist will find it useful. A valuable feature is a system of closed methods for all fractures which can be treated this way, and there is an extensive chapter on the treatment of burns. The book is published in collaboration with the Deutsche Gestellschaft fur Technische Zusammenarbeit and the Kenyan Ministry of Health, and is part of a complete series on surgery, anaesthesia and obstetrics for hospitals in the developing world.

About the Author
Maurice King is at University of Leeds.

5.0 out of 5 stars Primary Surgery Vol. 2 Trauma (2002 reprint), July 8, 2006
This is an excellent text on how to do actual trauma surgery. I would highly recommend it to any medical professional who is either going into surgery or might be assisting in surgery or anyone doing medical missions in the developing world and disaster areas. This is an easy to read bare-bones guide to walk the reader through the actual trauma surgical procedures in a very comprehensive format.
