"The new Fifth Edition of Greenfield's Surgery: Principles in Practice is a bigger, better and a more "user friendly" update of this classic text.” Stated Keith D. Lillemoe, MD, “Both the enhanced features of the text, the online interactions, and the new multiple soft-bound volume set makes Greenfield's the most attractive option for surgical students, residents and surgeons established in practice. Adding the basic science principles to the updated clinical management enhances the value for all readers".
