About This Item
Churchill Livingstone; New York, 1984 Second edition. Red cloth-covered boards, gilt and black spine and front board lettering, 10 x 7 3/4 inches, 389 pp., index, numerous b/w illustrations (568 figures). Very good plus (previous institutional owner's label affixed to title page, no other library markings; name in ink, half-title page; modest amount of yellow highlighting in first chapter; otherwise, pages clean and binding tight). From the preface to the second edition: "As I reluctantly reviewed the first edition, which with groundless conceit I had believed to be carved in stone I found more than sufficient cause to kindle embarrassment --- and enthusiasm. Thus the second edition contains a chapter on congenital anomalies, that most complex of therapeutic decisions, and new or expanded sections on quadriplegia, cerebral palsy, compartment syndromes, fractures new and old, frostbite and other topics previously sidestepped or only lightly brushed. Other portions of the first edition were sufficiently unclear that even I found myself confused!"(3214031). 2nd Edition. Hardcover. Very Good.
