Reviews & endorsements
"Much better than competing books, as it forces you to really think about what you are reading. This textbook compliments Postgraduate Orthopaedics: The Candidate's Guide to the FRCS (Tr&Orth) Exam, 2nd edition. If you are facing the FRCS (Tr & Orth) you need both these books."
