From the reviews: "This pocket-size reference book is more readable than the title might suggest. The authors have diligently addressed not only the classifications and scoring systems frequently used in shoulder surgery, but also those of historical significance. ... This book will be of value to shoulder and elbow surgeons as a reference work and should for a basis upon which clinical research may be conducted." (P. Reilly, Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery, Vol. 89-B, 2007)
