Produktinformationen zu „Principles and Practice of Geriatric Surgery “
"In the preface to this impressive and well-produced book, the editors state that their aim is not to describe a new surgical specialty, since most surgeons will soon need to be "geriatric surgeons," but to assemble a comprehensive account that will allow "all providers of healthcare to the elderly to understand the issues involved in choosing surgery as a treatment option for their patients."
This is a useful book that deserves to do well. I hope that the editors and their publisher will have the stamina to make this the first of several editions, as it is clear that updated information about surgery in the elderly will be required to keep pace with this important field."

Rezension zu „Principles and Practice of Geriatric Surgery “
From the reviews of the second edition:"This is an excellent in-depth review of the management of surgical conditions in elderly. ... It is an excellent resource for any physician taking care of elderly patient and all surgeons and surgical trainees. ... This excellent book is a significant contribution to the library of contemporary surgery. It is written and edited by experts and is the most extensive guide on surgical care for elderly patients at the present time. With rapidly advancing technology and expanding knowledge, this is a timely update." (Evgeny V. Arshava, Doody's Review Service, October, 2011)
"This multi-authored volume is primarily concerned with surgery in older adults ... . Most of this volume is organized around the major organ systems with special reference to the interests of surgeons and other clinicians. ... there is much in it that will be of great interest to those in preventive medicine and community health, and those who work with the elderly in senior centers and community-based programs that serve seniors. The book is well organized, and its coverage is very comprehensive." (Pascal James Imperato, Journal of Community Health, Vol. 36, 2011)
"Principles and Practice of Geriatric Surgery serves as the surgical specialists' best reference for geriatric surgery." (Daniel J. Kacey and Alejandra Perez-Tamayo, Journal of the American Medical Association, Vol. 307 (18), May, 2012)
