Fundamentals of Surgical Simulation Principles and Practice

From the reviews:

“The book explores theories of learning, strategies for training, and the definition and application of metrics in surgical training. It analyzes competency criteria from medical/surgical education groups around the world and emphasizes the importance of proficiency based progression as the hallmark of an objectively based surgical training program. … Overall, Fundamentals of Surgical Simulation: Principles and Practices is a valuable reference and a provocative essay on the principles of surgical (and procedural) training.” (Dana K. Andersen, Journal of the American Medical Association, Vol. 307 (9), March, 2012)
