Orthopedics Illustrated is extremely informative and up-to-date, as well as being very stylishly written and neatly designed. The reading is made interesting with the use of thought-provoking illustrative diagrams and self-explanatory flow charts.
This updated new edition, published in 2013, brings together new concepts to substitute the standard textbooks of orthopaedics with a simple to understand revision book. Orthopedics Illustrated provides the maximum material in minimum time.
Orthopedics Illustrated is 248 pages long, divided into two sections: the first part describes traumatic orthopaedics (fractures, dislocations, etc.), whereas the second part covers non-traumatic orthopaedics (bone tumour, bone tuberculosis, arthritis, neuromuscular disorders, etc.). Tumours and nerves are given in simplified form.
This edition includes a new chapter on prostheses, instruments, orthoses and physiotherapy, giving readers an understanding of the essential features of rehabilitation and physiotherapy.
We recommend this highly illustrated second edition as a revision aid for postgraduate students.
