is plentiful use of coloured pictures of high quality, surgical
illustrations and diagrams to help further elucidate the text. The
use of coloured text boxes also holds the readers attention and
brings home the main and important points of the chapters. I found
this book the be highly recommendable as a reference source and for
those training in maxillofacial surgery. I feel that all
contributors have helped to produce a book which is indeed quite
easy to read, logical and with a great deal of relevant clinical
information and well-illustrated text." Dr Robina Jan, SHO Oral &
Maxillofacial Surgery, St. Bartholomews and The Royal London
Hospitals, The Journal of Surgery Volume 2 Issue 1, April 2004
