From the book reviews: "This is a manual on reduced-port laparoscopic surgery (RPLS), written by experts in this narrow niche of minimally-invasive surgery. ... This is a high-quality book, well written and well referenced. It will be useful for advanced laparoscopic surgeons who wish to expand their practice to include RPLS or SILS, or to learn techniques which might be transferable to robotic surgery." (Jessica K. Smith, Doody's Book Reviews, October, 2014)
