Surgeons around the world need a basic knowledge of English to keep up
to date with advances in their field. Fluency in surgical English is
important for your professional development, enabling you to attend
English-speaking patients with confidence, to study (or work) in other
hospitals, speak confidently at international meetings, and to write
articles for international journals. This book will provide you with the
basic tools to handle day-to-day situations without stress and will help
you to improve your English, no matter what your level. To our
knowledge, this is the first English book written specifically by
surgeons for surgeons. We are sure that surgical specialists from all
over the "non-English-speaking world" (general surgeons, thoracic
surgeons, vascular surgeons, neurosurgeons, gynecologists, plastic
surgeons) will enjoy reading it.
