The instruments photo's in book are real large so you can get a good look at them up close. Great way to quiz yourself on the instrumentation,i would've like the book to have more information about the types of tissue instruments are used on. However the book is good and their is a website you can log on to quiz your self.

This book is actually better than the book furnished by the university I am currently attending.

I find this book to be very good regarding the basic instruments it contains. It's photo's are excellent, instrument descriptions precise, and it covers alot of basic instruments for the basic OR services. However, it only covers basic plus some, instruments. If you are looking for a book that covers the majority this is not it. It IS however, a very good book for beginners.

Best part about this book - VERY clear pictures, with excellent close ups of the tips and jaws of the instruments - the best I have seen (I do have several surgical instrument books). I would recommend this book only to the beginner though (but that's not a negative). Getting the basics down is a great start, this book does it best. Not a lot of "text-clutter", just the name of the instrument, alias if any, the general use, and any additional info. The only thing better than this book would be to hold the instruments in your hands. Good for beginning Sterile Processing, Surgical Technology, or Peri-Operative Nursing.
