I bought this book to prepare for a continued education class at UCSF where Dr. Nanda was the speaker.Dr. Nanda is apparently a big name in orthodontics.However, I felt that I wasted my time (closing my practice for the day) and $$$. His book (and lecture) cover the most basics of biomechanics and esthetics. In his lecture, he went over the same basic slides and several (mediocre) case presentations over, and over for 5 hours! For three more hours, he was trying to sell his newer book and name drop.This is the same basic crap covered in the first week of Ortho block in dental school!I would highly recommend avoiding this book. While there is some information of merit, the same thing is better covered in the Profitt book.If you want a truly great book, this isn't it.Get the Ikeda book if you want challenging information that will force you to grow. Get the Profitt book if you want a good basic reference.As for Nanda, give me my wasted time and money back!
Exactly what I wanted!
