Principles of Surgery: Companion Handbook by Seymour I Schwartz

Along with the other titles in the Companion Handbook Series, the Principles of Surgery, 6/e Companion Handbook is designed as a pocket manual for use by medical students, residents, and house staff. Completely cross-referenced to the sixth edition of Principles of Surgery, the Companion Handbook contains key clinical information and it serves as a convenient resource in those urgent situations in which the big book is not available. This book should not be considered as a "short textbook" to replace the big book, rather as an easy-to-access free-standing supplement.
