spectacular...!

This book is really a collection of valuable information. Thanks to Marvin L Corman.

Thorough, clear & concise

Bravo! Excellence in every aspect, Dr. Corman's thorough coverage and clarity transcends all other publications covering colorectal surgical procedures. Bravo, also, to illustrator L. Barnes. Beautiful illustrations! (Never thought the day would come when I'd refer to anything colorectal as 'beautiful'!)

excellent again
