Rapid Reference Review in Sports Medicine

This is a great effort that provides the majority of essential studies in one concise bookI really enjoyed this book. As a young surgeon, I can use this as a quick reference and review. When I was in training, I would have loved a collection of pivotal papers like this one. - Matthew S. Marcus, M.D., University of Illinois at Chicago College of Medicine, Doodys Review Service
