Emergency Abdominal Surgery, 3Ed by George Youngson
This book offers a comprehensive, detailed and accessible account of the whole field of emergency abdominal surgery. In this latest edition, each chapter has been thoroughly revised and updated by experienced surgeons qualified to offer extensive, practical, evidence-based guidance. They each provide an up-to-date review of the pathology, clinical presentation and diagnosis of their subject, before proposing tried-and-tested treatment options. Assessment is made of recent advances, consideration given to controversial options and attention drawn to areas of difficulty in the operative procedure, which is described and illustrated in detail. Finally, each chapter is fully indexed and cross-referenced. Of particular significance is the comprehensive coverage given to the acute abdomen in infants and children who present a number of distinctive conditions and requirements. Such discussion will become increasingly relevant in the context of treatment outside of specialist centres.

The text is well illustrated and referenced.The book achieves sf guidance on when a generalist can tackle a problem safely and when it is best to stop. I congratulte the authors of this book for bringing together a third edition of this text and they are to be applauded for using specialists in the areas that they no longer feel comfortable tackling themselves. It will continue to be a valuable resource for surgeons in training as well as those in practice.
