Apley's System of Orthopaedics and Fractures

A concise yet substantial presentation of orthopaedics and fractures in a single volume, which has undergone extensive revision for this sixth edition. While the systematic approach has been retained, there are general changes of emphasis as well as detailed changes of fact. For example, the range of diagnostic procedures has been widened; histopathological descriptions are fuller; and the basic sciences receive more attention. The whole text has been redesigned and reset, and the number of illustrations increased. Incorporating new concepts in orthopaedics and the interdisciplinary fields into which it extends, the sixth edition of "Apley's System of Orthopaedics and Fractures" remains essential reading for those preparing for higher surgical examinations, the more discriminating undergraduate, and all who aspire to practise orthopaedics and its related disciplines.
