direct, and succinct... [His] experience as a practitioner and
educator is evident in his writing. As a former surgical technology
educator and author of similar texts, I can attest to the
difficulty of presenting entry‐level surgical instrumentation. Mr.

illustrations that will reduce any confusion..." -- Jon Paul Price,
