General Surgery: Principles and International Practice is organized into Ten Sections, each representing an important
branch of surgical science. It aims to provide the medical student, general surgical resident or active practitioner
with an illustrative, instructive and comprehensive textbook depicting the rationale for the basic operative principles
mandated by state-of-the-art surgical therapy. The reader can rapidly review the subject matter in a three-to-five page
summary with contemporary bibliography in each chapter and a “Pearls and Pitfalls” section summarizing the
‘impact’, concerns and outcomes of surgical management.

Amply supported by line drawings and photographs, algorithms and anatomical depictions, this provides the student of
diseases, as well as those studying for Board examinations, a text that has rapidly assimilated data into the most
contemporary applications of surgical therapy.

General surgery residents, general surgery practitioners, medical students
