Useful Books (for PGs).<\/strong><\/p>\n

On the second day of my joining Surgery Residency I was asked to report for emergency on call in the afternoon as part of orientation. It so happened that on my way I bought and carried my first copy of Schwartz’s Principles of Surgery. As I entered the whole room burst out laughing! I was later to learn that in first year you eat and then sleep whenever you can; the books can be used as pillows (maybe you learn by conduction).<\/p>\n

One book is used as a basic text and can be supplemented by the others-<\/p>\n

1. Schwartz Principles of Surgery<\/strong><\/p>\n

2. Sabiston-<\/strong><\/p>\n

3. Greenfield-<\/strong> Not much used in India.<\/p>\n

4. Bailey and Love A Short practice of Surgery<\/strong> is to be read all the time but is insufficient on most topics.<\/p>\n

5. Pye’s Surgical Handicraft<\/strong>– Very useful initially<\/p>\n

6. Das Clinical Methods<\/strong> or you may use Hamilton Bailey.<\/p>\n

7. Hamilton Bailey’s<\/strong> Emergency Surgery.<\/p>\n

8. One book which I found very useful is Mastery of Surgery<\/strong>.<\/p>\n
