"The audience includes all practitioners involved in preoperative and postoperative care. The book is also a worthwhile read for physicians in training as it provides an evidence-based platform to challenge archaic concepts ... . This is a comprehensive book on newer and protocol-driven care of surgical patients. It is unique in that it expands on the protocols already in place for colorectal surgery to include recommendations for other types of surgeries, including esophageal, gastric, cardiac, and vascular."
