Top Knife

To the inquirer regarding the book, Top Knife.    
 
This book was principally the intellectual property of Asher Hirshberg, and  
I assisted in organization, ideas, and re-writing and re-writing.    The 
brilliant editing and keeping focused and organized was the secret skill of  Mary 
Allen, and the cleaver and accompanying illustrations was the talent  of Scott 
Weldon.  Each of these 4 elements contributed to the unique style  of this 
book.  It has now been translated into German, Japanese, and,  now, Portuguese.   
  
 
HOWEVER.........This is NOT a book to read to prepare you for your  
examinations.  No charts, No references, No mention of evidence based  science exists 
anywhere in this book.   It is merely a talking style  as if a faculty is 
assisting a senior resident through the most difficult trauma  case of his life.    
It addresses thought processes in an  unconventional style.     
 
To prepare for your examinations, I would strongly  recommend that you read 
one of the standard texts. 
 
It is published by TFM Publishing in London and is available on many  book 
distributing companies including Barnes and Noble, Amazon.com, Majors Book  
Store, the publisher direct, and many other sources.
