Editorial Reviews

Review

“…a text aimed at students and practitioners alike…The writing is wonderfully clear and relevant, which is well complemented by good diagrams and mosr interestingly of all, clearly labelled series of photographs which explain procedures clearly. This is a fine first edition and certainly fills a gap in the market for this kind of well-researched text.” Student, MAD Magazine – Barts and The London Students’ Association, June 2004

Occlusion and clinical practice, June 1, 2009

It is a good book when I just touching the “foreword”. As its mention, it is an elegant, carefully crafted textbook. I will keep on reading until the end. Occlusion is a very special topic to dentistry. Few books talk about this topic. That means it is attractive, or otherwise you will feel boring of reading it.
