Fantastic Text.
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
Mark Miller gave this text to me when we began working together in Charlottesville. It is superbly written, short concise chapters, with an appropriate amount of detail for a fundamentals text. Now as an Orthopaedic Physician Assistant I have a tremendous resource for the basics. As this text is excellently prepared the rest of Mark's texts are just as impressive. He gave me the Text Book of Arthroscopy which nearly completes my "Miller Library" and I encourage any professional interested in expanding their knowledge base in orthopaedics to include his texts into your library as well as keeping up to date with ortho journals. Hats of to Mark.
Fantastic Entry Level Ortho Book

This book should be mandatory for the senior medical student interested in orthopaedic surgery. Every resident should read this before starting their intern year!So many things helped me out during my senior externships, great chapters on basic science, biomechanics, materials, fracture care, and most importantly the relevent clinical anatomy is unsurpassed, including physical exam tips. Each chapter is a quick 10 or so pages, but contains all the essentials: worried about [pimping] by attendings, this book will ease your fears.I cannot say enough about this book: almost every orthopaedic surgeon that has seen me reading it has said " WOW, wish we had something like that when I was getting started training!"If I could give it 6 stars, I would...The only downside is that a lot of the material is in a psuedo-outline form....there were times I was wishing there was more material to read about a particular topic.....but I guess thats why they call it " Fundamentals of Orthopaedics".

This is book is a MUST for any physician. It provides an easy to use resource for all things orthopaedic. Would make an excellent text for many medical schools. Also particularly helpful to show to patients in explaining their problem.
