This new edition of the Oxford Handbook has been developed for anyone interested in the hand—surgeon, therapist, nurse, rheumatologist, general practitioner, and emergency practitioner. This reflects the broad nature of the speciality in a multidisciplinary world where surgery is by no means the only approach. There are many contributing authors who are all experts and who have thoroughly prepared each chapter. So the book is as fresh and up-to-date and authoritative as possible. The authors have all prepared the book free of charge—except for a complimentary copy of the book. The editors will donate all royalties to charity. We hope to give something back to the speciality that has brought us so much professional satisfaction. The format of the book—carefully organized headings and bullet lists and tables—should help the reader to take an overview of any topic as both a primer and as a revision aid, as well as to delve deeper to find the details of a complex classification. The small size of the book—readily accessible in a pocket or briefcase or bag or desk drawer—makes this rarely used and always forgotten knowledge easy to access.
