Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery
"The book is beautifully written and produced, and well illustrated with clinical photographs often complemented by line drawings ... It will be invaluable for trainees in orthopedic surgery as the definitive work on the subject."
(1994)
British Journal of Plastic Surgery
"The first edition of this book was a landmark in the subspeciality of children's hand surgery, and this new edition is manna from heaven for those surgeons captivated by the complexity of this field. Adrian Flatt has distilled a lifetime's judgement and wisdom into these pages and produced a "textbook" that can be read and enjoyed, and which will leave the aficionado wanting more."
(1994)
Annals of Plastic Surgery
"This book is informative for both novice hand surgeons and more experienced surgeons who continually need a refresher course on congenital hand deformities. It provides an overview of a particular problem and is an excellent source for technical detail ... We strongly recommend this book to all those who care for patients with congenital hand anomalies."
