Reviews

“The text is of greatest value to the staff of the emergency room and to a plastic and reconstructive surgeon, especially in burns management, there is much in this compact book for any speciality working above the clavicles. This is yet another useful product from a publisher that has been so prolific in our field of late.” (L Flood, The Journal of Laryngology & Otology, May 19, 2023)
