An up-to-the-minute, clinically oriented, and encyclopedic textbook of general surgery for all surgical residents, general surgeons, and medical students.

Color-coded tables summarize the evidence currently available for a wide variety of surgical treatment options. The text is augmented by a specially comisioned art program with more than 1000 illustrations to clearly depict surgical techniques.

From the reviews:
"Jeffrey Norton, MD, and his editorial board have ushered in a new and significant era of currently available surgery textbooks... The 130 contributors constitute an excellent group of current young surgeons... In today's environment of managed care, the authors recognize the need for cost-effective surgery and the maximization of results while preserving surgical judgment and quality patient care." (Archives of Surgery)
"...Is it different from the existing textbooks of surgery? Did the authors achieve their principal goal of providing an evidence-based approach to surgical decision making? Would I recommend it to the surgical residents in my program?... the answer to all these questions is yes... the ambitious undertaking of creating an evidence-based textbook has largely succeeded and I heartily recommend it." (Journal of the American Medical Association)
