"Since 1962, this book has been the preeminent textbook in cardiothoracic surgery. This current two-volume edition maintains and exceeds the high bar of previous editions. With both updated and entirely new chapters, this latest edition is a worthy update of the previous edition which was published in 2015." ©Doody’s Review Service, 2024, Benjamin C.
