Description
The 5th Edition of the world's most comprehensive operative hand surgery reference pairs the tradition of print with the advances of technology in a continuously updated multimedia (E)dition. A new team of international contributors, carefully selected for their particular expertise and ability to offer broad perspectives in a given subject area, describes a complete range of open and arthroscopic techniques. They discuss their preferred surgical methods · patient selection · pre-operative evaluation · decision making · expected outcomes · and special instrumentation. A companion CD-ROM enables readers to link directly from bibliographical citations to corresponding MEDLINE abstracts and other sources.
Reviews
"Every conceivable topic related to the operative treatment of the hand is covered in depth...A well organized, well written scientific reference...Highly recommend." —JBJS
"Without doubt, Green's is a mandatory investment for residents, practitioners, and educators alike in the field of hand surgery. With its gamut of Web capabilities, the multimedia e-dition combines cutting-edge publishing technology with state-of-the art science in hand surgery...The more expensive "e-dition" has several additional advantages that make it well worth the cost, namely, searchability, dowloadability, and portability."-JAMA
