    Review:
    Foreword by Danny O. Jacobs MD, MPH

    This Clinical Review of Surgery is now in its third edition. Through the hard work of the editors and authors, this peer-reviewed textbook is recognized as an extremely valuable resource for program directors and their residents throughout the United States of America and increasingly throughout the world. Their effort to include relevant, timely and clearly written source material for surgical trainees is substantial. The standard surgical textbooks, of course, contain vital information and should be visited regularly. Nevertheless, I believe it is accurate to comment that it is often too difficult for many trainees to determine precisely what information needs to be retained to provide the best care rendered to patients. It is knowledge of these fundamentals that is required to be the best physician and surgeon and it is this knowledge that is tested by the ABSITE and surgery qualifying examination. These challenges occur at a time when the scientific foundation of modern surgical practice is expanding exponentially.

    So, what is the trainee to do when the pace of training has increased so significantly, when the amount of information that must be read and understood is so vast, and when the nature of surgical training has changed to meet the expectations and demand of the new millennium? He or she looks for tools that can be used to help focus their educational efforts. This peer-reviewed Clinical Review of Surgery is one such tool. Its material closely mirrors the content of the qualifying examination administered by the American Board of Surgery as well as the material that is tested by the yearly ABSITE. Every effort is made to organize the text so that it can be read or reviewed quickly and efficiently. Standard nomenclature is used to focus the reader to information that is essential or complex enough to require in depth review. The reader is pointed to resource material that is available online. Important drugs that are commonly used in practice are highlighted. Review questions are provided along with detailed answers.

    The busy resident now has a companion text that nicely complements the standard tomes, integrates with a rich variety of online resources at the companion website, and which summarizes and highlights information essential for the best surgical care all this in a book that fits in a coat pocket.
