The book is centered on the importance of assessing the quality of evidence that underpins current clinical practices in surgery, a concept deemed increasingly vital for 21st-century clinical textbooks. Its aim is to supplement existing surgical literature rather than replace it, focusing on general surgery as practiced in the U.S. and other countries. The volume is intentionally concise, catering to the needs of busy medical students, residents, and surgical practitioners at the bedside. It features contributions from recognized experts across North America, Europe, Asia, Australia, and New Zealand, providing a global perspective. The text highlights that patient management approaches in general surgery can vary significantly by region, even in a connected world. Each author rigorously evaluates the evidence supporting both operative and non-operative treatment recommendations. As the quality of evidence improves in various surgical fields, the editors anticipate a trend toward more uniform clinical management practices across different countries.
