"This concise work fulfills the important role of introducing
medical students to orthopedic trauma. Additionally, it teaches
orthopedic residents, in a step-by-step manner, the correct ways to
assess and manage fractures and dislocations. General orthopedists
caring for trauma patients can benefit greatly from this book. I
strongly recommend it without reservation."
