Comprehensive revisions have been done on chapters on Anatomy and Biomechanics, Crachial Plexus Lesions, Shoulder Girdle Fractures, and Total Shoulder Replacements. Sixteen new chapters focus on evaluation and treatment considerations. The approach is clinically oriented throughout, and chapters are grouped in sections for easy reference.
