"Principles and Practice of Surgery" is the surgical companion textbook to the international bestseller "Davidson's Principles and Practice of Medicine". It is a comprehensive textbook for the surgical student and trainee, guiding the reader through key core surgical topics which are encountered throughout an integrated medical curriculum as well as in subsequent clinical practice. Although sharing the same format and style as "Davidson's Principles and Practice of Medicine", this text is complete in itself, thus enabling the student to appreciate both the medical and surgical implications of diseases encountered in surgical wards.

The series - "A Companion to Specialist Surgical Practice" - is designed to provide trainee surgeons in higher surgical training with an excellent learning and revision resource and busy practicing surgeons with a regular update in a particular sub-specialty interest. Produced to a very tight schedule, each volume in the series gives a current and succinct summary of all the key topics within the specialty and concentrates on recent developments. To meet the increasing interest in evidence-based medicine, authors have cited whenever available, the meta analysis of randomised controlled trials and identified key references within the text which support evidence-based practice. Other titles in the series are: "Core Topics In General and Emergency Surgery 2nd Edition" - Paterson-Brown, "Colorectal Surgery 2nd Edition" - Phillips, "Breast Surgery" - Farndon, "Endocrine Surgery" - Fardon. "Vascular and Endovascular Surgery" - Beard and Gaines, "Transplantation Surgery: Current Dilemmas 2nd Edition" - Forsythe, and "Upper Gastrointestinal Surgery 2nd Edition" - Griffin & Raimes.
