Bailey & Love's Short Practice of Surgery

by Charles V. Mann (Editor), Norman S. Williams, R.C.G. Russell

Building on the firm foundations of the past 22 editions, this is a very thorough revision of this classic textbook. All sections have been revised and updated; in particular the chapters on trauma, orthopaedic surgery, plastic surgery, neurosurgery and maxillofacial surgery have been extensively rewritten under the direction of the new co-editor Professor Christopher Bulstrode. New chapters have been added on the role of radiology in surgical practice, principles of laproscopic surgery, clinical trials and statistical research, and surgical ethics. The book's high standing reputation for unambiguous advice makes it the forst point of reference for many undergraduate and postgraduate students. This comprehensive text will also be of use to practicing surgeons.

A great book for the beginner in surgery. Though called A short practice of surgery, the book is thousands of pages thick. Think the authors are still writing "The long practice of surgery"

اكبر كتاب عندي. يحطم المعنويات :(

Read this during med school during my surgery rotation but its pretty long and if you want to be more quick for your exams then I suggest online or class resources (medbullets, uworld, uptodate, lectures, shorter versions of surgery textbooks).

If you’re sitting for your boards/steps— I suggest stick to uworld, pathoma, osmosis/kaplan videos, usmleRx, and the trusty First Aid for the respective steps!

I read most of GI surgeries from this thoroughly for my OR rotations. I found them much easier to understand and digest. I think this is a great resource at a junior level but only for topics you find tough.

Personally speaking people might think of me as nerd though I m not at all believe me. This book is really addictive once you start it (if you have the courage) you wont be able to use anyother. In other words no other book will satisfy you. I admit when we see it, it appears to be a big book and really heavy as for the people who usually set their mind by weighing a book that is just apparent. It is precise and well described one. If you intend to learn surgery in real means I would definitely recommend it to you.

despite being over 1500 pages, this book is literally sort of review book. Principles of Surgery and trauma handling (ATLS , )are described quite in length . while in the systemic portion most of the chapters are just review. it may seem nerdy but its writing style and narrating stories of surgery in an interesting way make this book a page-turner. The summary boxes after every topic can help wrap up the whole discussion as well as serve as a quick review on exam night .

A very easy book to read, all the informations are broken down to sections making it both easy and less scary to read :D
I still have some sections left, but I have really benefited from the sections I have read and I will keep reading it for the next two years :)

yup it is a great book!
