Item description -surplusage

i bought this for my husband, who is a surgical assistant. he mentioned that this book is practically the horn book on surgery, though we were thrown off by the description of "(lecture notes in mathematics)". thankfully the book arrived complete as viewed from the image, but for the life of us, we still do not know what the lecture in notes in mathematics is supposed to refer to.

Classic from a Giant of Anatomy.

This is an important reference for medical students and residents. It is helpful for developing an understanding of the anatomy of classic general surgery cases. Wonderful bridge from medical school classroom to the operating room.

Surgical Anatomy and Technique

This is an excellent book! Outlining the steps of general surgery procedures, explaining significant anatomy to know and vessels to watch out for. This is a must have for any surgical student! The size is also good, can't be carried in the pocket but small enough to bring into the surgical suites.

Huge aid

This book serves as the guide to surgical pimping for medical students. This allowed me to enter cases with a clear understanding of the anatomy of the case and an incite into the techniques that we would be using.
