From the reviews:"The 20 well-written chapters by experts in their respective fields focus on a variety of laparoscopic and robotic procedures in children and adults ... . It is intended for surgeons ... . The book will serve well novice surgeons who are not familiar with the instrumentation, positioning, and considerations particular to each operation, but will also benefit experienced surgeons ... . Overall, this is an excellent resource for those interested in the surgical advances in reconstructive urologic procedures and future applications of these techniques." (Costas D.
