From the book reviews: "The primary purpose is to provide a comprehensive overview of maxillofacial surgery. ... The book provides information on a broad level and is relevant for students, trainees, specialists, and subspecialty providers interested in the discipline of oral and maxillofacial surgery. ... This is a well-organized and well-written book. It is also a useful resource to help readers understand how to best evaluate, diagnose, treat, and manage oral and maxillofacial trauma, defects, and aesthetic concerns." (Janet H. Southerland, Doody's Book Reviews, April, 2015)
