This book is wonderful. I am currently going through a Surgical Technologist program and need to know the instruments used in the Operating Room. It splits the instruments out into specialties and gives wonderful pictures. The instruments that look alike, they give close up pictures of the tips to show the difference. The only problem is that the book uses the official name of instruments. However, around here, some of those names are different, however, the close up pictures help to clear up the issue. I would highly reccomend this book to anyone entering surgery who needs to know instrumentation.

A CD is needed to make this a worthwhile resource book. Illustrations are just ok. Need update on instrumentation, otherwise ok. I purchased this book, used.

pictures and explanation nice
