“The authors successfully provide a first look atlas at single site urologic procedures with organized, concise, and well illustrated chapters. … Practicing urologists and trainees who are interested in adding single site procedures to their armamentarium are the intended audience. … This is a helpful introduction for novices and an excellent companion for the experienced with well-placed images and helpful descriptions. Single site surgery is a rapidly evolving field and this atlas provides a concise, up-to-date reference.” (Ryan Cleary, Doody's Book Reviews, November, 2017)
