Editorial Reviews

Review

Aus den Rezensionen: “Das … Werk … bereichert das Angebot an Büchern über die Zahnärztliche Chirurgie. Es wendet sich … an Zahnmedizin-Studenten, Assistenten in Weiterbildung sowie an niedergelassene allgemein-zahnärzlich [sic] tätige Kollegen. Diesem Anspruch wird das Buch durch seinen stringenten Aufbau, das opulente Bildmaterial und das klare didaktische Konzept voll und ganz gerecht. Die Kombination aus illustrierenden Zeichnungen und klinischen Fotos macht die Lektüre anschaulich und … gut verständlich. Hierbei gebührt auch dem Springer-Verlag Lob, der die Intention des Autors durch das entsprechende Layout konsequent umgesetzt hat …” (Dr. Dr. Andreas Born, in: Zahnmedizin up2date, 2007, Vol. 1, Issue 1, S. 7-8)
