From the reviews: "There are no other books dedicated solely to adrenal gland surgery and this is a good addition. The audience includes residents and fellows in training as well as practicing general and endocrine surgeons. ... This is a great, concise book completely focused on the adrenal glands. The material is covered much more in depth than it is in the chapters on adrenal surgery in larger surgical textbooks. The visual aids are particularly helpful and are a great resource." (Julie A. Alosi, Doody's Book Reviews, May, 2013)
