“Out of several undergraduate texts on musculoskeletal disease, this is both comprehensive and comprehensible and a valuable addition to departmental and students’ personal libraries.”

“This book is the best comprehensive work I have seen on the musculoskeletal system for medical students. I highly recommend the book to all medical students, junior residents, and primary care physicians.”

Jeg har selv ikke læst eller set denne bog.
Det er velkendt, at de engelske mindre kirurgi-lærebøger (“Principles and Practice of Surgery”, “Clinical Surgery” - hhv. Davidson’s og Kumar & Clark’s Medicine kirurgiske pendent) ikke er dækkende for det danske ortopædkirurgiske pensum.
“Textbook of Orthopaedics, Trauma and Rheumatology” kunne måske være et engelsksproget alternativ til Sneppens “Ortopædkirurgi”.
