"This is an extremely comprehensive and detailed book...... aimed at readers who want in-depth knowledge of
dressings and their uses. It is a book to be read for specific information on a particular dressing type and can be
picked up and delved into as required. At 45 UK pounds, this book gives good value and the author
demonstrates his expertise and knowledge in this subject. "

" Surgical Dressings and Wound Management is a comprehensive
reference book to help the reader navigate the world of wound dressings.......
The chapter dealing with dressing selection is practical, helping the practitioner
to choose an appropriate dressing, or dressing system, for a specific wound.
This choice is determined by a number of factors and the chapter aids the practitioner
in selecting an appropriate dressing based on the condition of the wound, the
condition of the surrounding skin and the anatomical location, with
consideration of the wound's underlying aetiology.......
Although the book addresses the dressing and therapies for wounds in general,
wound care for the ulcerated diabetic foot is also considered specifically.......
While the search for the holy grail of diabetic foot dressings continues,
so the debate over the clinical and cost-effectiveness of those products currently available will continue.
Thomas' Surgical Dressings and Wound Management is perhaps the most comprehensive guide to this congested area."

"
..... This book is a must for libraries as its unique aspects are
the history and technical aspects of developing wound
dressings. However, it will be equally valuable to those
wanting a comprehensive text on dressings.
