5.0 out of 5 stars For the begginer...but also the senior will enjoy it., May 7 2004
By 
Rogelio (David Chiriqui) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Handbook of Fractures (Paperback)
A very well done fractures and dislocations manual that will help in all most any moment...and during the resting time will be enjoyable for senior orthopaedist. Enjoy it and will improve your knowledge...or perhaps send you to Rockwood...the classical treatise of fractues. Any way I really enjoy this manual...and Iam a senior orthopaedics surgeon.

3.0 out of 5 stars For Ortho only, May 7 2010
By MRD "EM resident" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Handbook of Fractures (Paperback)
I'm an Emergency Medicine resident, I felt that the vast majority of information in the book did not apply to EM residents. Too much info regarding grading of fractures and operative technique. Grazes over the topics needed for family medicine, urgeny care, emergency care (what needs admission, what needs emergency consultation, etc). Recommend this book for orthopedics, but not Emergency Medicine.

5.0 out of 5 stars Must-Have for the Ortho Resident, Jun 14 2011
By bluebones - Published on Amazon.com
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
"Handbood of Fractures" is THE "go-to" guide for any first-year ortho resident. At first, I was put off by its small dimensions (the majority of our ortho texts are the size of smart cars), but bought it on the recommendation of an older (and wiser) resident friend. As a PGY-1, it is an indispensible starting point. True, it isn't the end-all, but any book that contained all there is to reference re: all ortho issues would have to be moved into place by a small crane.

If I were to describe the book in a phrase, it would be as an ideal "launching pad." Any more detailed study can be readily ferreted out, but in the trenches, "Handbook of Fractures" is near indispensible as an instant reference for everything from casting to trauma call. Additionally, it is the best beginner's manual I have ever seen (and I have read a LOT) for establishing at least a foothold in the many different directions that ortho can take you.

If ortho is your future (or present), get "Handbook of Fractures." I only wish I had discovered it as a medical student!
