Textbook is a good summary of all types of foot and ankle surgery, but it tends to get overly wordy and bogged down with some of the history behind many of the surgical procedures. Book is also heavily politically weighted to make some procedures look very positive and other procedures to look like they should never be performed. Overall, I think it could have been better written, but if you can sift through all the triteness of the text, it is a valuable tool to understanding most of the facets of foot surgery.
so far it's great. the only problem is how big it is. I guess I would get the kindle version next time but I don't know how the content/formatting compares.
There is no other "one book to read" about the subject than this one. Excellent.
