Written by recognized experts in podiatry, this full-color text/atlas is a practical “how-to” guide to the most advanced and successful techniques for treating foot and ankle problems. The authors describe their preferred techniques in step-by-step detail, identify pitfalls and potential complications, and offer personal pearls and tips for improving results. The book is thoroughly illustrated with full-color, sequential, surgeon’s-eye view intraoperative photographs and drawings demonstrating difficult surgical maneuvers.

Each chapter focuses on a specific procedure and covers indications, contraindications, preoperative planning, surgical technique, postoperative management, and complications. A list of recommended readings appears at the end of each chapter.

Doody's Book Review Service, Martin C. Yorath, DPM, Rosalind Franklin University of Medicine and Science -- "This book, if not 'just what the doctor ordered,' is most certainly just what the surgeon needs! It sounds trite to say this belongs on the shelf of every foot and ankle surgeon's library, but it does. It is already in our department of surgery library, and in the residents' conference room. I can give no better recommendation than that."-Four-Star Review from Doody's Book Review Service (Weighted Numerical Score: 93) Journal of Foot and Ankle Surgery -- "There are few books available to foot and ankle surgeons that actually show them exactly how do a procedure. This book provides the versatile surgeon with such an opportunity. Even though the title reflects a "Master" experience, surgeons from every level of experience can benefit from this book. Almost all of the things that we do, from the simple and mundane to the most complex, are presented in a pictorial fashion. The photography is the best feature of the book in that all of the key surgical maneuvers are perfectly depicted in each photograph... "It is rare to be able to benefit from a book that has a complete array of color photography. In addition to the high resolution, each photograph is taken from the "eye of the surgeon" which adds to the utility of each visual vignette. It was a pleasure to read through this book. A picture truly is worth a thousand words."-Journal of Foot and Ankle Surgery
