Review
"I anticipate that most surgeons who have a sincere interest in treating shoulder problems will want to have this book on the shelf. In addition, orthopaedic departments will wish to have this book in their libraries for use by staff members who treat shoulder problems less frequently and for the education of residents and fellows. Broad-based practitioners will find this text useful because of its thoughtful review of contemporary thought as well as its information on rarer conditions, which is hard to find in a collective way elsewhere. Congratulations to the editors and authors for a job well done." -- Robert H Cofield, MD, Mayo Clinic

"This third edition contains the latest data available to the clinician regarding both diagnosis and treatment. The authors have done a splendid job in chronicling their subject, directing their audience on every aspect of the shoulder practice and an excellent job in discussing how to proceed with treatment according to the individual needs of the patient. The Shoulder is likely to be the only reference text physicians will use on a daily basis in the course of their practice."
