A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

This is the 8th edition of the `reigning classic' of orthopaedic textbooks, Apley's System of Orthopaedics & Fractures. Building on a 30 year tradition, this new edition will continue to be the essential reference for those seeking to understand the structure and function of the musculoskeletal system, its diseases, and its response to trauma. Louis Solomon, who was Alan Apley's co-author on the previous two editions, has been joined by two new co-authors to develop and extend this foundation and produce a thoroughly modern textbook of orthopaedic surgery.

The book has been brought completely up-to-date and extended to cover current orthopaedic practice. Many new illustrations have been added and the new easy-to-read page layout now features colour throughout. As in previous editions, the book is divided into three sections: General Orthopaedics, Regional Orthopaedics, and Fractures and Joint Injuries. Information is provided on pathophysiology, biology and molecular genetics as well as on general principles, diagnosis and management.

Revue de presse

This text must remain the best basic introduction on the subject and it will undoubtedly also remain the bible for both undifferentiated young surgeons aiming for their Fellowship and for trainees entering the specialty of trauma and orthopaedics. (Annals of the Royal College of Surgeons of England)

The seventh edition... combines the best of British tradition... It is likely to remain the best and most popular text for the orthopaedic postgraduate student. (Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery (British Volume))

In my opinion this text belongs in every practising orthopaedist's library, to be referred to when he or she is confronted with a problem not commonly seen in an increasingly specialized practice (Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery (American Volume)

the new volume not only lives up to our expectations, based on the previous seven, but exceeds them...this book has become a treasure, a dependable friend who can be trusted to tell the truth... (From the foreword to the 8th edition by Henry J. M)
