“The purpose is to provide a concise decision-making and surgical guide for fractures about the knee. … The color photographs, diagrams, and radiograph reproductions are well done and helpful. This is a succinct and worthwhile first reference for orthopedic residents seeking information on a particular knee fracture.” (Samuel J. Chmell, Doody’s Book Reviews, August, 2016)
