Ever since the last edition many new frontiers in surgery have opened up. It has gone less invasive and more technology driven. Some new facets such as robotic surgery, single port surgery and surgery through natural orices have brought value addition as well as diversication. While it becomes dicult to stay abreast with all the new advances, we have tried our best to provide a fair insight into the advances which are well established, and less controversial like robotic surgery and lasers. The basic skills required to handle new technology and equipment have been incorporated, and a genuine effort has been made to keep it simple and illustrative. Almost every chapter has undergone changes with addition of new concepts and surgical pearls. We have ventured into the eld of endoscopy and robotic surgery through two dedicated chapters. Diagrams have been further simplied and made more descriptive. With the third edition, we hope to enrich the readers with knowledge regarding the recent advances at the same time covering the basics which could not make it in the last edition. We thank the readers for the feedback and support and look forward to constructive criticism. Sudhir Kumar Jain David L Stoker Raman Tanwar Preface to the First Edition Apprentices in surgery need a basic set of practical skills in order to care for their patients well. Although many of these skills are same as those used by their 20th century predecessors, today's trainees need to keep abreast of rapidly changing and advancing technologies that were not available even 10 years ago. At the same time, basic surgical training for medical students and junior doctors is being compressed into a shorter time frame, as other medical specialities evolve and need to be taught in growing curricula. There is increasing emphasis on communication skills, and self-directed learning in many undergraduate programs, and the student of surgery today has, therefore, to learn more in less available time. He/she will have less “hands on” experience in theater, ward or clinic, and inevitably the practical aspects of surgery tend to suffer. This book aims to facilitate the more rapid learning required in a modern surgical program, with concise chapters on the main techniques that need to be mastered in the early years of training. It is intended to be read mainly by senior medical students, and housemen or interns, but may also be a useful revision for those about to take their rst surgical postgraduate examinations. It is the book written by working general surgeons to enhance the practical training of their own teams. It is also an international collaboration between London and New Delhi, and will be of use to students studying the art and science of surgery everywhere. It is not an exhaustive reference book, but more of a brief guide, to be used as a learning tool mainly in operating theaters and emergency rooms. It contains simple lists and diagrams with no superuous text. There are clear explanations which should aid the student from scrubbing up to suturing up. This book is designed to enhance practical training, and the student is encouraged to spend as much time as possible putting the basic skills described to good use in a clinical environment. Surgery remains largely an apprenticeship specialty, where only lots of practice will make perfect.
