Critics Review
Review of the previous edition: ‘Medical Management of the Surgical Patient is a text for diagnosticians who endeavour to serve in the perioperative period. Its clarity will prove valuable in the diagnosis and treatment of subtle conditions and disorders, along with potentially fatal conditions, such as postoperative acute myocardial infarction … As a diagnostician, my most gratifying work has been consultation-liaison with my colleagues in the surgical specialties. To facilitate such consultation, I recommend that this text be available in all medical school libraries. I also recommend it for medical students and medical and surgical house officers. Medical Management of the Surgical Patient also belongs in the personal libraries of all clinicians who provide perioperative consultations.’ Journal of the American Medical Association
