Book excerpt: Annotation Aiming to provide a more accurate depiction of what a surgeon can expect to find while exploring a surgical approach, this color atlas uses fresh cadaver specimens so that the colors are not distorted. The volume's 13 sections are organized by the general area of the body (for example, shoulder, upper arm, elbow, hand, thigh, knee, spine, etc.), with between three and eight approaches to each area outlined in detail. Each approach discusses the following topics: the uses of the approach, advantages, disadvantages, structures at risk, technique, tricks, and how to tell if you are lost. Includes hundreds of high quality color plates. 9x12". Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com).
