I confess, I'm a huge nerd when it comes to getting new books, especially textbooks. Though I own a print copy of the 7th Edition, I decided to go ahead and buy the 8th Edition of Kanski's Clinical Ophthalmology: A Systematic Approach.The 8th Edition does not list Dr. Jack Kanski as one of the primary editors/authors; instead, the task of updating this work has fallen to one of his colleagues, Dr. Brad Bowling, who did a superb job of maintaining Dr. Kanski's original vision while inserting his own style to present up-to-date evidence-based information about the essential topics of ophthalmology. Having personally relied heavily on the 7th edition during residency and through board review, I've been very eager to review this new text, which was released earlier this year.On initial glance, it's a great update to the already amazing work of the 7th edition. I don't know if it's an accurate claim, but it seems like there are even more images and figures than previous editions. Though it may not be as revolutionary of a difference between the 7th edition and its predecessors in format and look, the 8th edition is still a sleek upgrade.OrganizationThe textbook sections are identical to the 7th edition. The topics are arranged anatomically from anterior to posterior, as well as sections on ocular side effects of systemic medication and ocular trauma.
