I carried the baby Sabiston around during the first half of my surgical rotation, but found that the Surgical Recall handbook was better for those short reading spurts I would do while waiting for rounds or for a case. However, you do need a good text during your rotation, so try the full sized Sabiston text and skip the little Sabiston handbook.
Rating: -
this book covers all the issues the trainee and practicing surgeon meet.chapters like:the acute abdomen and trauma are enriched with easy to understand and up to date information;others such as:hernia and the anal canal require more detailed information.the book is the best book that occupies my white coat.
