This is a new 3-volume, major reference work from the Oxford Textbook stable. The Oxford Textbook of Orthopedics and Trauma provides comprehensive coverage of the relevant background science, theory, practice, decision-making skills and operative techniques required to provide modern orthopedic and trauma care. The text is divided into five major sections covering fundamental science, adult orthopedics, trauma, pediatric orthopedics and pediatric trauma. The fundamental science section contains a major subsection on tumors and the adult orthopedics section is further subdivided to cover the joint and bonesystems of the body. Edited by a transatlantic team and written by more than 300 specialist chapter authors, this book is unrivalled in the field. The content is extensively referenced, highly illustrated and contains useful summary boxes throughout the text. The Oxford Textbook of Orthopedics and Trauma is essential reading for trainees and experienced practitioners alike.
