Rating: - Perfect!
I am still a second year podiatry student but this book is very detailed provides many cases and shows color pictures of steps taken to complete the procedures.

In addition, it provides precise drawings (kinda like those in netter) of important anatomical structures key to the surgery . This is a great find and excellent reference for aspiring surgeons.
