    • Summary:Argenta (plastic and reconstructive surgery, Wake Forest Medical Center) presents basic knowledge on how tissues respond to surgical treatment, problems associated with specific types of surgical patients, and common challenges related to surgical practice. Coverage includes molecular interactions, biochemistry, immunology, and anatomy and physiology, and there is material on practical issues such as nutrition, transfusion therapy, and infections. Designed to be applicable to any surgical specialty, the book also contains specialty-specific coverage of applied physiology and embryology. B&w anatomical illustrations are included.
