This is written with short punchy chapters making it a very
difficult book to put down." -- R A B Wood, Journal of the Royal
College of Surgeons of Edinburgh
"Since Mondors times in the forties of the last century there was
no other book in surgery to be written so easy and witty..." --
Boris D Savchuk, World Journal of Surgery
By the end I was a total enthusiast... this is a text like no other
I read... Unreservedly recommended to old and young and alike." --
M Winslet, Royal Free Hospital, London, Colorectal Disease
"The title describes this book perfectly. This is a no‐nonsense
approach to the sometimes very difficult situations in general
surgery. The authors describe their experiences in tough situations
of patient care for residents and young attendings... the
historical quotes add a good amount of insight and interest. I have
not come across another book like this... Focused on the real
situations that surgeons come across, the book answers the
questions that are not addressed in the major textbooks." -- Robert
A Hanfland, Doodys Review Service
This book covers emergency abdominal surgery in a useful and
interesting way. [It is] a small and handy book yet the coverage is
wide. It would be of interest to any general surgeon and should
certainly be read by surgical trainees. [It] allows mention of many
things which would otherwise be excluded from a more rigidly
structured work. I was also glad to be reminded of many things
which I had known but forgotten. The writers clearly know what they
are talking about. -- David Evans, Annals of the Royal College of
Surgeons of England
