An Atlas of Surgical Operations

This book is, as the name implies, an atlas of surgical operations that are in common use at the present time. The procedures are well chosen, and the excellent drawings by Miss Codding illustrate admirably and in great detail the various steps in the operation. The book should prove to be of great value to house officers securing surgical training and to the general surgeon who is called on to perform an operation that he has not done for some time. Directions regarding preoperative and postoperative care accompany the drawings and are simple, lucid and well chosen. The book is strongly recommended for the library of the modern surgeon.
