Customer Reviews
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Decent. Nothing spectactular.
OK for quick study, locating key words. A few errors, in my opinion, as well as some controversial statements.



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - I was fooled (again...shame on me)!

Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Terrible
I received this book for free and I still think it is nearly worthless. As a chief resident in surgery I found the book to be poorly organized with minimal use as a reference tool. The format was nice, but again, not a very useful text overall.



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - please
are you kidding me? an ER resident is authoring a surgery book? you know what surgery residents think of ER residents. give me a break.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Good review for Absite
This book is a good supplement, or last minute review for the ABSITE.
