Perfect for those needing to get acquainted with surgical equipment. Was recommended by a teacher and definitely worth the cost.

The pictures are clearly visualized, each function is easily grasped but my favorite part of this book: the descriptions which are extremely important when learning the instruments.

This book is awesome. I love how it shows a picture of all the different surgical instruments, their nicknames and a detailed description about each one. Very imformative.
